McKenna, a law professor at Notre Dame who was part of a group of professors that wrote a friend-of-the-court brief to the Court of Appeals on Moore’s behalf.

Art And Symbolism: The Technique Of Applying Hidden Meaning And Communicating Specific Ideas Through Art, Andrea C. Macbean

Senior Honors Theses

Symbolism is an artistic style frequently used in the arts. Through the course of art history, it was its own artistic movement as well.
