Conservatively, the bélaya kost thought they had a superiority that nobody else possessed, which I can relate to. Secondly, Rasputin had the ability to sweep women off their feet, even though he is rude and liked to boast, which reminds me of a person I know. Lastly, when Fleming describes the children to be sad and nervous while waiting for their parents, it reminds me of a certain point in my life.

    Between the time period 1800 to 1850, Romanticism was a literature style that many writers wrote about that focused on the celebration of nature, beauty, and imagination, supernatural elements and many other characteristics. However, there was a transition from Romanticism to a new literature movement called Realism due to the Civil War. It began when the North and South had cultural differences that divided them; while the North’s economy was based on industrialization and trade, the South was highly dependent on agriculture and slaves. The contrast between the two sides deepened when Abraham Lincoln promised that he will emancipate slavery. After the long battle, many writers realized that Romanticism did not suit their taste and decided that they preferred to write more honestly and realistically to demonstrate the hardships people faced during the war.

    I loved the costumes for this ballet and appreciated seeing the amount of detail in each setting. I particularly enjoyed watching the first six dancers that represented the fairies making their way across the stage. Although each dancer was doing similar steps such as arabesques, pique turns and bourrees, they were doing each move at different times, which made it look more complex. I also enjoyed watching the females fairies weave in and out of a line with the two male dancers. They did a pas de shat through the center and bourrees circle around the baby crib and to the back.
