Fishing with John
This is a love story; an unlikely convergence of two people from different worlds who were able to make a rich and tender life together, and not only endure each other's company in alarmingly close quarters but revel in it. Edith Iglauer was born in Cleveland and lived an urban, sophisticated life in New York until she met and married John Daly, a commercial fisherman in British Columbia. She spent more than four years on his forty-one-foot troller, the Morekelp until his sudden death. John Daly was an impassioned and greatly talented fisherman who was convinced that he could "think like a fish"; an amateur philosopher who worked out, and followed, an orginal set of beliefs and principles; a mystic who, after forty years of fishing, felt himself to be at one with the sea and the mountains along the British Columbia coast; a scholarly looking, high-spirited, full-blown eccentric who covered the white walls of his pilothouse with his favorite quotations in bold black letters ("Lawyers spend their professional careers shoveling smoke. O.W. Holmes") Fishing With John established Edith Iglauer as one of BC's most popular writers. This unusual West Coast love story sold 16,000 cop ies in hardcover and continues to be a bestseller in paperback.

Question by YodaUnleashed: What artists have drawn or painted the changing seasons?
Again I basically need a list of Artists who\'ve drawn or painted the different seasons i.e Monet\'s poplars. Artists who\'ve drawn the same picture but at different times of the year and so different seasons would be great but those who\'ve painted different seasons intentionally but not necessarily painted the same place are welcome too.
By the way I only want the names of well known artists such as the likes of Monet, Constable, Van G ogh etc Basically artists that are not alive today.
Finally I\'ve also asked some other art related questions, look at my profile and my questions to find them, your help answering any of them would be great.

Answer by spanner
Many artists, most notably the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist artists, painted several versions of a picture, apart from the well-recognized ones. Claude Monet and Paul Cézanne were two of them. Vincent van Gogh was a Post-Impressionist artist who also painted in subject matter that represented a variety of seasons.
Monet\'s series of paintings, known as his Cathedral Series, includes a painting titled in English, \'Rouen Cathedral, West Facade, Sunlight\' (1894) . Another painting is called \'Rouen Cathedral, Sunset\' (1892-1894). The series is a depiction of the Cathedral of Rouen at different times of the day and in different seasons. It is a noteworthy example.
Paul Cézanne painted a number of renditions of one subject, Mont Ste-Victoire. The mountain does not change much according to season or time of day. Cézanne deliberately painted over 30 versions of this mountain in order to express the idea of permanence. Put another way, he painted Mont Ste-Victoire in order to express his belief that "beneath sifting ap pearances was an essential, unchanging armature." zt is for this reason that he could have used changing facets for portraying the same subject.
If you look up the Fauve artists, such as André Derain with his picture of \'Big Ben\' (1905), for example,you might find variations of one painting. Also, the Fauve artist Henri Matisse is known to have painted several canvases of one subject.
You might find some seasonal variations in the paintings of American Symbolist painter Albert Pinkham Ryder (1847-1917). He distinguished himself for his seascapes.

âLaw school applicants should consider this a guide to producing a competitive, superior e ssay. . . . These successful examples speak louder than any written how-to instructions could.â â"The Book Watch
Each year, thousands of people apply to the most prestigious law schools across the country, competing for an ever-smaller number of spaces. But each applicant gets one chance to distinguish himself or herself from the pack: the law school application essay. In the essay, you can spotlight the qualities you possess that transcripts and LSAT scores cannot reveal.
Essays That Worked for Law Schools shows that winning essays come in a variety of styles and voices. One student writes about running a day-care center. Another tells a harrowing story about driving a cab in New York City. And a third gives an incredibly convincing argument for why the world needs one more good lawyer. From the thousands submitted each year, the essays in this book were considered s ome of the best by admissions officers at the nationâs top law schools.
If youâre facing essay anxiety, this book will educate and inspire youâ"and most important of all, help you write an essay that will give you the best chance of getting into the law school of your choice.While almost anything goes in a college-application essay, law-school applicants are expected to be a little more sophisticated. No navel-gazing allowed. But please, no pontificating, either. Like admissions officers everywhere, those at law schools are looking for something fresh. That means, says Boykin Curry, that unless you are quite certain that you\'ve got a spectacular new approach, yo u should avoid such topics as "Why I want to be a public defender," "I have always wanted to be a lawyer since I was ten," and "What I think about justice" ("lecturing on the law--before you have studied it--" Curry warns, "is likely to bore and irritate the reader"). Instead, be honest, and be creative. Use these essays for inspiration. One essayist here demonstrates his bargaining skills by relating his Peace Corps experiences haggling over goat meat in Niger. Another writes touchingly of his stated goal: to practice law with the same integrity that his grandfather brought to his carpentry business.
A chart at the beginning of the book illustrates just how much importance various schools place on the essay (the University of Washington gives it little consideration; Harvard and Yale say it\'s a vital part of the application). --Jane Steinberg

Self-Reliance, and Other Essays, (series one)
This first collection of Emerson\'s essays has influenced a host of thinkers and intellectuals since its first appearance in 1841. \'Self-Reliance\' is undoubtedly the collection\'s most famous essay, a piece in which Emerson argues that one must put a wholehearted trust in the powe r of one\'s own intuition, and not hold to orthodox opinions merely because the mass of people believe them to be true. But the prestige surrounding this work has tended to obscure the breadth of Emerson\'s vision: in the twelve essays in \'Series One\' he invites us to consider a wide range of topics, from the true nature of \'Friendship\', \'Heroism\' and \'Love\', to the high-flown philosophy of \'Spiritual Laws\' and \'The Over-Soul\'.
