The period between 1820 and 1840 was a highly changing period for politics in the United States. The passing of the Federalist Party ended the two party system that also included the Democratic Republicans. The Era of Good Feelings was ushered in and campaigns and elections hereon out were changed drastically. Campaigns, running mates, and an increase in suffrage especially transformed the elections in 1824, 1828, 1832, 1836, and 1840.
In the late 1800's, farmers believed that the railroad companies were strangling away their profits and the government was in favor of big business thus justifying their feelings of discontent.". The farmers had every right to be upset about their situation because the government saw a need for reform which alludes to the fact that problems existed, the railroads had a monopoly on shipping which raised costs and affected profit margins, the value of crops had deflated, and big business was hostile towards farmers.
The South in one period in time became a distinct entity away from the North. It became a separate unified entity during the Antebellum Period between 1800’s and 1860’s. This period introduces the idea that men wanted to make a difference in the world. An idea that a male will share is that of absolute authority on his own plantation. One term that can be pinned down on this is that of the yeoman farmer. A Yeomen farmer strived to become successful. Many wanted to own a huge plantation with lots of slaves. Owning a lot slaves meant that many men could relax. The term of Yeomen Farmers is introduced by Thomas Jefferson who sets a milestone for Southerners down the road. Other then Yeomen farmers being part of the Social class is that of women. Women in society are to be subjected to their husband. What the husband says for the to do it goes. Only one exception to this is that if a woman is a Southern Belle. They can be further opinionatedThe South is unified by the idea of a social class, honor, and politics.
In the 19th century especially during the period between 1865 and 1900, many people envisioned the United States as a country with unlimited individual economic opportunities and a place where social equality and political democracy reigned supreme. I believe this does not accurately describe the real conditions in the United during the period. In the 19th century, United States witnessed and experienced economic improvement on the national scale though people still lacked opportunities to better their lives. Under the outward portrayal of brilliance and equality for all by the U.S., vices such as greed, oppression, corruption and segregation actually defined the real situation on the ground. Political and freedoms were equally limited. For this reason, it is untrue to conclude that individuals prospered without interference and that all rights were respected.

Throughout the history of the United States, individuals and groups deformers have worked to bring about social, political and economic change in the United States. During the late 1800’s and early 1900’s, many individuals and groups were united in their belief that the problems of society could be solved. Two of the goals that reformers had in the U.S during this periods were changed in child labor laws and protecting the public from contaminated food.

Music plays a large part in all cultures throughout the world. Music is used in varying ways, such as ceremonially, sacredly, and secularly. Pieces and genres of music are reflections of their time and society. Music has been used throughout its existence to inspire people, to do bigger and better things or to learn how to inspire other people. Music is as complex and diverse as the people who listen to it and the time periods from which it comes. With the expansion of technology in the world, came the expansion of music sound, view, and instrumentation. The Early Twentieth Century brought with it a new sound and an expanding ability to experiment with music.
Professors Bergland’s main point about the 1880-1920’s was the fascination and exploration with nature and death. In the poems that Professor Bergland showed us, Emily Dickson wrote about nature and her thoughts on how nature affected the world and science. My understand of the period from 1880 to1920 was that education was not mandatory for females. When females attended college, they were taught science and math because it did not have a role in society. Males on the other hand learned literature and politics because they would go on to graduate and have an active and high role in society. At the college Dickson attended, Mount Holyoke, religion was heavily stressed. Not many females finished college, majority dropped out before entering
The events in the 19th century had changed the lives of women and blacks completely. It was an age where the impact of the industrial revolution caused a sharp differentiation between the gender roles, especially of the upper and middle classes. In 19th century, appeared the events such as African American Civil Rights Movement, Civil War, and The Women’s Rights Movement had put women and blacks’ role to a new level. During the Civil War, women stepped out of their domestic domains to support the soldiers. In the meantime, African slaves had been set free or run to serve in the military among whites. Later in 19th century, the 14th and 15th amendment were ratified to protect slaves, and the women’s suffrage movement began to gather momentum, gaining more equality. Therefore, I agree that the 19th century helped the U.S finally achieve the ideals laid out in the Constitution, which is all men created equal, blacks and women included.

The 18th century in America became a time of growth of independence and religious freedoms. People began searching for developing other ways of worship, including revivals, outdoor sermons, and more inclusive baptisms. This enabled more people to experience religion, allowing people to decide for themselves which way of worship was right for them. Along with growing religious independence, the nation itself began to establish itself as a unified entity. The colonies began thinking of independence, away from the control of England. However, one group, enslaved Africans, remained separated and excluded from the nation’s unification. The use of slaves, common during this time, established the African race as inferior and almost inhuman.
It’s no surprise that that 17th and 18th century culture differed greatly from today’s society. The beliefs, philosophy, and scientific theory from that time period have changed a lot over the course of time. Many common ideals from that era are considered ludicrous and bizarre today. One common belief held in 17th century cultures was the dominance of males in society. Men held all the power and played their patriarchal roles as heads of the family, this belief was assumed to be instituted by nature and God. The bible has influenced writers for centuries and it is used by people to justify life choices, and similarly, to point out flaws. The authority held by the Bible in early Britain allowed it to behave as the moral framework for the
