Styles Of Livings: History And Culture

In the essays “Homeplace” by Scott Russell Sanders and “I Must Be Going” by Richard Ford, the authors discuss their very different viewpoints on whether people should move around or stay put in one home. In “Homeplace,” Sanders argues against moving with a didactic and self-righteous tone that aims to put his philosophy of staying put above any other. However, in “I Must Be Going,” Ford approaches the topic differently, explaining his own reasons for moving from home to home. Although he is defensive in reaction to others criticizing his choices to move, he does not put his method of living above that of others, but simply seeks to justify it. Although the two authors discuss the same topic in their essays and both use evocative methods of writing to explore the motivations behind moving or staying put, they do so using very different viewpoints and attitudes towards transience.

During this time period rural societies transformed into urban/industrial ones and a shift from working at home to factories and mass production with machinery. Many different advancements including the iron and textile industries, and also the invention of the steam engine helped pave the way of the revolution. Industrialization brought an increase of manufactured goods and also helped pave the way to our world as we know it today. As all these things were great, the industrialization significantly and truly lowered the living conditions

Industrialisation and urbanisation developed during the late 1700’s. This was the process of companies removing physical labour and replacing this with machinery.

It was made with wooden frames and covered with bark. There were no windows but small holes in the roof so smoke from cooking fires could escape out of the longhouse.

“What if I don’t like the new house we live in?” I had been living in Taiwan for all my life. My old way of life would soon change. I could still remember the house moving to that new country, America. When I got here, I noticed the flowers, fresh and vibrant, blooming in a distance. I can almost taste the sugary sweet incense in my mouth. I can smell the aroma stemming from the rich atmosphere consisting of beautiful and wild flowers. All the houses had rough roofs compared to all the massive skyscrapers and apartments in Taiwan. The living condition, full of carbon dioxide, is the kind of air quality you get in my hometown. The best part in my homeland, small and dense, is that there tons of people to socialized with. In the neighborhood here, I saw people walking their dogs, playful and energetic, chasing each other. Plain white houses, big and rustic, had narrow and quiet chimneys. The climate, dry and cold, blows down the

The ruins of the famous ancient Indian cities, Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro are world’s first models of urban town planning, of stone and brick architecture as defense against floods, and of sanitary engineering and drainage systems. Archeologists have found that these cities had several modernized fire-burnt brick buildings and structures, such as citadels, public baths, granaries, drainage systems, and high walls. The cities were organized in a grid pattern and were divided into two parts. The citadel that housed large public buildings like the public baths and temples was built on a raised ground while the rest of city that housed the granaries and workshops was built on a lower level. The city layout was organized according to the social groups of people in the ancient Indian civilizations: the ruling people resided in the citadel, the rich merchants lived in the lower city, and the labor class who worked in workshops resided in small houses down the city. Over time, the ancient Indians developed ideas about God and religion, and founded religions like Hinduism, Jainism and Buddhism, all of which have millions of adherents even today. They also built temples like the Brihadeshwara temple. The ancient Indians were thus able to build an advanced urban

“All change is hard at first, messy in the middle and gorgeous at the end” (Sharma). Change is what helps improve the world we live in. During the Industrial Revolution in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the way people live was drastically changing. In the beginning, living conditions in cities were terrible, but as regulations were put into effect and as time passed, these living conditions greatly improved. Life in industrialized cities was an improvement over life in the country as a result of the Industrial Revolution because of improvements in transportation, working conditions, and the creation of job opportunities.

First. the reading claims that because of similarity between these houses and what has been found in Southwest societies, they may have been used as a shelter for people.
