Spanish Civil War Speech

Miyazaki shows his audience that both worlds share the same parallel circles; names were powerful in the spirit and human worlds -- names identify identity in both worlds. It was very important for Sen aka Chihiro, in “Spirited Away” to remember her name because if she did not, then she wouldn’t be able to return to her natural world. In “Ponyo” it was also important for her to have a name. Another example of the power of words was when Yubaba let Chihiro, in “Spirited Away”, signed over her name to her and then she assigned Chihiro a new. Haku in “Spirited Away”, couldn’t remember his name but he sensed that Yubaba had something to do with it, and so, he made sure that Chihiro didn’t forget her name – because she would be trapped just as he was. Sosuke also assigned Ponyo a name; not that giving Ponyo a name in the human world would bring anything mystical, but it gives her self-worth, identity, and belonging, just like Chihiro. Miyazaki shows his audience that there was no difference in the sprite or the human world that both worlds are equally

“The art of war is simple enough. Find out where your enemy is. Get at him as soon as you can. Strike him as hard as you can, and keep moving on”.

Reflection: This quote is so significant because It shows how the rebels and army boys were trained to hate one another and to believe they are responsible for eachothers suffering. When in reality none of them are to blame, they are just

The Spanish civil war is often seen as a fundamental divide between right and left- the first major struggle between Fascism and Communism. The Spanish civil war started distinctly as a Spanish civil war born out of Spanish disputes, but it was soon to take on an international character. The military situations were practically equal to both sides before the foreign intervention. However, after Germany, Italy, and USSR intervened the situation changed dramatically.

Cavallari confessed in an interview that she's always had a baby girl's name in her back pocket. When she was pregnant with her first son, Cavallari was inspired to name her future daughter after a woman's dog:

"...no nation is rich enough to pay for both war and civilization. We must make our choice; we cannot have both."

Uncommon baby names are becoming the choice of parents now a day, parents want that everyone appreciate or give attention to the unique name of their babies. When they call their young daughter or young boy in public or social gathering then everyone promptly ask the actual meaning of the baby name. The unique and uncommon are praised by many in general.

After reading the biography, Norman Bethune by Adrienne Clarkson, I believed many of the author’s words/portrayals of events without inquiring into the truth of those portrayals. Certainly, the author made relatively subjective narratives of events, but missing facts lead readers to believe one thing, while, in reality, something else happened. As a result, if readers are unfamiliar with events in this world’s history, their perceptions of world events will potentially be incomplete, and/or negative. However, Clarkson’s focus on one individual, clarifies that this story is not meant to portray history from a broad perspective; the story is about the life of Norman Bethune and how he impacted history

George Orwell was a staunch anti-fascist who was filled with excitement and exhilaration that the Spanish people stood up to Franco; whereas he thought the rest of the world had let fascism spread without a fight. He feels now more than ever is the time to side with the people of Spain, to take up arms, and fight Franco along with his attempted coup of the legally elected government. “If you had asked me why I had joined the militia I should have answered ‘To fight against Fascism’ and if you had asked me what I was fight for, I should have answered: ‘Common decency’.” (99) When George Orwell first arrives in Spain he states he was oblivious to the political aspect and internal struggles the war was interconnected with; he joins the POUM because

Today we are going to talk about the civil war. There were three major groups that were affected by the civil war. Those groups were soldiers, African-Americans, and the medical staff. How they affected the war was a huge factor.

The Spanish civil war of 1936-1939 was an important conflict in Spain’s history. This war was initiated by a military revolt led by General Francisco Franco on the 17 July 1936 and ended with Franco’s victory on the 1 April, 1939. This victory resulted in the replacement of the Second Spanish Republic with the conservative dictatorship of Franco. This conflict triggered the clash of the various cultures and ideologies within Spain. One important example of an ideological clash was that of Communism versus Fascism. This clash was so important that, based on an analysis of the level of involvement of Fascist and Communist factions in said clash, one must concede that the conflict between Communism and Fascism was represented to a great

Si vis pacem, para bellum. If you want peace, prepare for war. Epitoma Rei Militaris, by the Roman Vegetius whose full name was Publius Flavius Vegetius Renatus.

“Nobody said ‘Señior’ or ‘Don’ or even ‘Usted’; everyone called everyone else ‘Comrade’ and ‘Thou’, and said ‘Salud!’ instead of ‘Buenos días’.” (Page 3). “Human beings were trying to behave as human beings and not as cogs in the capitalist machine.” (Page 4). Very few dressed in expensive clothing and almost everyone dressed in working-class clothes or militia-style uniform. Those who disagreed with the power of the working class were gone or laid low only to blend in until war passed. The Spanish Civil War had sparked a belief of revolution and equality in Barcelona, and also an atmosphere of war. The untidiness of war left streets dimly lit and shops scarce and unkempt. There were shortages of necessary food items such as bread, as well as limited supplies of coal and petrol. But despite the elements of war, there was little unemployment and due to the low cost of living, very little begging. The people of Spain fought for a revolution to keep democracy, to decrease the power of the church, and to take back the land, unions, and factories. “Above all, there was a belief in the revolution and the future, a feeling of having suddenly emerged into an era of equality and freedom.” (Page

I have chosen to put in writing a speech with the intention to be imitating the style of the anti-government leader Leopoldo Lopez, who is in opposition to presidents Nicholas Maduro’s regulations in Venezuela. the use of what I learnt from component 1 of my English Language and Literature course I’ll be imposing textual bias within the speech consisting of ambiguity and over-exaggeration. I will additionally be elaborating on the subject of segregation within the community inclusive of how the political figures marginalize the residents of Venezuela by means of acting like a “dictatorship” which turns the socialist democracy into a “communism”.

The Spanish Civil War had been majorly caused by a series of long-term events and short-term events which had contributed to its outbreak in July 17th, 1936. The consequences of the Spanish Civil War may be divided in terms of its effect on Spain and its effect upon the rest of the world. Paul Preston argues that the war had been influenced by a series of events, which had built up until the final eruption of the war in 1936. Preston argues that the social tension in Spain during the 19th and early 20th century had contributed to the outbreak of the war. The differences between the Socialists, Nationalists, Anarchists and the Republicans had created a very tense atmosphere
