Hop Frog

Hop Frog is a revenge story. There is king and ministers who likes to joke around and make fun of others. Hop frog is a man that king likes to make fun of. The king makes Hop Frog to drink because king thinks it will be funny to watch Hop Frog when he is drunk. When his friend Trippetta tried to defend on behalf of Hop Frog, the king knocks her down. Hop Frog then plots of vengeance to kill the king and his ministers. Characters are criticized by the narrator because he told about their problems and bad habits. My Favorite quote is "As for my self, i am simply Hop Frog the jester- and this is my last jest" which means that he will never be fool for anyone.

Romanticism in American Art

Reading about Asher Durand can help you understand what he was trying to accomplish in the painting "Kindred Spirits," formerly exhibited in the New York Public library. Today's blog is for you to find another painting in the American Romantic tradition, post it on your blog and describe its Romantic aspects.
(some of these may include benevolent aspect of Nature, the individual, concern with feeling more than with some message or idea, classical antiquity of Greece or Rome, and death.)
For some explanationbs , see Hudson River School.
