heroes of liberation
Paper
This paper must use the topic of Peace: John Lennon and Pablo Picasso
In the Humanities Project, you will compare and contrast two figures of the Humanities, focusing on their contributions and achievements. You will choose some of the earliest figures dating as far back as the fourteenth century, all the way up to the twentieth century, and compare that figure to a current, but relevant figure of the humanities.
This project should reflect your understanding of these figures and their artistic flare that made them stand out among the rest. Based on research – explain how the earlier figure has influenced the current figure, and analyze how those contributions reflected the culture of each era.

THIS IS WHAT I HAVE STARTED MY PAPER WITH
Introduction
“For those that know how to read, I have painted my autobiography” ~ Pablo Picasso
“If everyone demanded peace instead of a television set, then there’d be peace” ~ John Lennon
A rebel Beatle feared by two of the most powerful men in the United States and a Spanish artist condemned as a “degenerate artist” by Adolf Hitler. What do these two men have in common? John Lennon and Pablo Picasso both became heroes of liberation, activism and peace. They used their talents to express hope and detail struggles of the world. Picasso was one of the most influential artist in history and Lennon helped transform the way people viewed music. Both men are highly regarded for their contributions to the Humanities.
