Acclaimed author, Dale Maharidge, sets out to explore the transition of a small rural town that began as a homogenous community descended from Western European immigrants and how it transformed as immigrants from South and Central America moved in. The relationship between the growing Hispanic population and the established European citizens consisted of mixed feelings. However, through Maharidge’s work, he is advancing the suggestion that the future of this small Iowan town depends on its ability to welcome immigration. Using kairos, Mahridge seizes the historical significance of the strike at Farmland, a meatpacking plant, to show how immigration may as well be Denison’s only hope. The Latino immigrants were willing to perform grueling work

To describe Finny, from a Separate Peace, in one word, I would say he’s bewildered. He’s confused and is trying to find ways to block out maliciousness in the world. Finny is ignoring reality to have fun and stay away from everything in the real world. To stay away from reality, Finny goes to places where he can relax and one of those places was the beach. When he went to the beach with Gene, he was very calm and was escaping from the war. On page 47, Gene describes how Finny… “enjoyed himself hugely, he laughed outloud at passing seagulls.” This quote from the book describes how, when Finny was at the beach, he didn’t have a care in the world. He did things that he normally wouldn’t do at Devon or around his other friends. This explains how

Walter Nugent and Norman Graebner explains their view on if the Mexican War was an exercise in American Imperialism or not. Nugent believes that the war was an exercise in American Imperialism. He explains that the United States were imperialistic from the beginning and to expand their territory was one of the primary objectives. Graebner on the other hand does not believe that the war was an exercise of American Imperialism. He suggests that the war occurred from a lack of communication and believes that President James Polk wanted a war. He made a decision to take over territory initially by negotiations but, those negotiations didn’t work which left him with his final decision; war. This war has impacted the United States and Mexico

“Pair Living Primates have several unique characteristics that set them apart from other nonhuman primates. Monogamous Primates are two primates of different sexes that mate exclusively with one and other. The unique qualities of these animals are a result of the ecological constraints that these primates face. Because of the exclusive and solitary relationship that is monogamy there is a lack of specialized defensive roles by the adult male, which is also extensively involved in paternal care. Monogamous primates are highly territorial and very closely associated, Morphologically, there is a lack of sexual dimorphism amongst pair living primates, this is due to the exclusively and predictable genetic outcome of these animals mating with only

Harlow gathered 16 rhesus monkeys, placing some with a cloth covered monkey that did not produce food, and some with a wired monkey that dispensed food. With this presence, it was found that the newborns didn’t die as they had the cloth to cuddle. It was found that the monkeys would rather cuddle the cloth covered monkey rather than the wired one which produced food, just to establish a sense of contact comfort, which was much more important for the attachment of the monkeys. Harlow also followed monkeys which had been deprived of a ‘real’ mother at birth and found the wire mother reared monkeys were dysfunctional but those with the cloth covered one didn’t develop normal social

Lorenz (1935) revealed strong bonds with non-humans with first moving objects that they encounter; which was not always with the mother. In precocial species the mobile young animal needs to quickly identify its caregiver and remain close to them for survival. This is known as imprinting. As this happens before any feeding has taken place the study on Rhesus monkeys does not apply in the same way. Firstly Lorenz used goslings which are called precocial; meaning that they quickly develop to move around, and have well developed sense organs.

John Bowlby (1907-1990) developed the Theory of Attachment, influenced by the work of Sigmund Freud’s 1926 theory of cupboard love, which suggested that babies form attachments with those who meet their physiological needs, for example; feeding and security. His theory has influenced practice in settings globally and has also influenced other theories and experiments. Bowlby “took a distinctly evolutionary perspective on early attachment. He argued that because newborn infants are completely helpless, they are genetically programmed to form an attachment with their mothers in order to ensure survival”. Collins et al (2012, p274-p275)

In this book, Jeffrey Ogbar talks about the beginning of rap, where it started, some of the artists of this genre and some of the controversial topics the artists rap about. He also talks about the usage of the N word as well as men calling women the B word. In the first chapter of the book, Ogbar contextualizes the debate by talking about the history of the minstrel figure in American popular culture, relying mainly on the work of W. T. Lhamon and Patricia Hill Collins. He talks about how the earliest manifestations of hip-hop music in the 1970s came from the Black Power movement and often included direct rejections of minstrel tropes for example in the artist KRS-One’s song “My Philosophy”. Before going on a chronological study of the internal debates that many rappers have over their relationships with the minstrel trope, Ogbar finds the source of the debate in early twentieth-century black writers’, mainly W.E.B Du Bois, interest in elevating many portrayals of African Americans in the arts, versus Harlem Renaissance writers’ rejection of the emphasis on

In William Shakespeare's The Tragedy of Macbeth Shakespeare indirectly characterizes Lady Macbeth through incorporating her heartless actions. For example, after Macbeth completes the unspeakable deed of murdering Duncan he becomes fearful and unwilling to transfer the blame of the murder to Duncan's servants. Lady Macbeth claims he is weak of purpose and childish because he is afraid. Additionally, Lady Macbeth demands he hand her the daggers as she will now hold the responsibility of smearing the blood on the servants so they seem guilty. After the deed is complete, Lady Macbeth acts as if she is unknown to King Duncan’s death. Through Lady Macbeth’s actions, before the murder and after, it is clearly evident that she is characterized as
