Turner's Argumentative Analysis

The Frontier Thesis may play a heavy part in U.S. history, but there are implications for truly understanding the outlines of this thesis. Fredrick Jackson Tuner during a great meeting of American Historical Association on July 12th, 1893 in Chicago, a paper named “The Significance of the Frontier in American History.” This paper introduced an innovative way of astonishment to understanding the construction of America. Turner envisioned that the history of America was not focused one the prominence of the Frontier and the America established many trades and accomplishments from this voyage. Such as Tuner laid out the foundation of his thesis, he also didn’t account for the flaws that were overlooked from his discernment of the Frontier. (Tuner, pg. 1-9)

In 2011, Jennifer Connell was attending her nephew, Sean, 8th birthday party, Connell walks into the backyard and upon seeing his aunt, Sean runs and jumps to hug her. Causing Connell to fall backwards landing on the ground and breaking her wrist in the process. Instead of doing something rash, like, accepting he is eight and it was an accident since the laws of physics are not clear to him yet, she did the rational thing. She filed a lawsuit - against the nephew. She claimed that the nephew had been "careless" and wanted $127,000 for emotional suffering and medical bills. In her claim she stated that she had recently attended a party and her inability to hold her "hors d'oeuvres plate was distressing and embarrassing. Deliberation lasted a mere twenty minutes. The jury awarded Jennifer Connell nothing.

The first talk featured Miki Kaneda and focused on the manner in which the idea of prestige is entrusted in the current time period. The argument was that though prestige can still be gained through traditional institutions, such as conservatories and companies, new music and its practices broadens accessibility to prestige. The multi-media, multi-genre, and collaborative elements present in the performance practices of those involved in the New Music scene, such as WetInk of New York, demonstrates how successful this new model of prestige can be in reaching new audiences and of maintaining financial sustainability in a market environment.

On the seventh day of the Scopes trial, the argument between Darrow and Bryan began to shake the people’s belief in creationism. Darrow asked Bryan a variety of questions regarding miracles such as the creation of Earth in six days, the exact time that God had created Earth, or the time period and the logic of the Flood. Instead of answering those questions with biblical contexts and clear explanations, Bryan repeatedly said “I don’t know,” or “I think there maybe” in between his answers. Despite of his assertion of the fact that human should not further doubt the validation of the Word of God, his answers for Darrow made him appeared as an unsure and flustered person. This image of Bryan, though unintentional, altered the public view of Christianity.

Intro: Power goes out on a typical American street, shortly after a strange craft is spotted overheard. An enormous argument about who caused it ensues, shortly after a boy named Tommy tells the people that it could be aliens that look like humans. The whole street is plunged into chaos, each person suspecting another of being an alien. If it weren’t for the involvement of Tommy, a great deal of conflict and irrationality could have been avoided.

Tierney provides a metaphor, ‘Is syndrome, the geek villain trying to kill superheroes, an angry Marxist determined to quash individuality?’ (Tierney 497). Science has enabled potential mothers to tell whether they're to be baby will have a physical defect or syndrome. There are many defects and syndromes related to old age factor and lifestyles of parents, but it is profound that most people do not know of these attributing factors. The only solution resorted to, most times, is to consider aborting the baby with reasons of avoiding embarrassment and easing the speedy demise of the baby being cited.

To be considered free in American society, according to Sandel’s definition of a procedural republic, freedom relies on an individual’s participation in self-government. For those who support the procedural republic they encourage civic virtues, such as educating ones self about the public and the ability to debate about the common good. This can be seen as a responsibility to citizens. Therefore, one may understand this as both a social and civic matter, as it requires citzens to posses as sense of belonging in their community, thus guiding them away from pursuing their own interests and focusing on the common good. Thus, just as Sandel discusses the qualities of shaping of what kind of citizens are formed, Glendon claims “law can and should

Mr. Fowler and I spoke about being back in Syracuse and how he is enjoying California weather. Apart from the weather, I inquired about foods that are popular that he doesn’t have access to in New York. He mentioned that he really enjoys the Mexican food, specifically the Taco Truck. I shared my experience there and we then spoke about sushi and Korean barbeque. Mr. Fowler, also told me that he will miss the El Salvadorian dishes his aunt and mother prepares. He asked about my favorite food place in Los Angeles and I told him The Grove. Lastly, we spoke about the fact that Syracuse does not have any options after 12, other than Dominos.

Wade writes that race has everything to do with behavioral variations between all humans. He claims that Darwins natural selection theory is the result for the biological separation of human populations and that they are characterized by very distinct and genetically determined social behaviors. He writes that many of the differences of human emerged over the last 10,000 years and that these differences explain the results of the human history. Both review articles criticize Wades work but within good reason. He insults specific races, claims that their race and genetic differences are in correlation with their social and biological behavior I believe that there is a more straightforward explanation for the behavioral variation among human beings that is a bit more accurate than the one Wade presents based off the article reviews for this assignment. When thinking more in the anthropological terms the explanation fits better with observations of what makes humans unique among species.

In the Significance of the Frontier in American History, Frederick Jackson Turner discusses the understanding of the West as a concept. Turner’s claims included that the expansion into the frontier fueled individualism, stimulated democracy and nationalism, and widened the opportunity of advancement. In the census of 1890, the frontier no longer had a place in the report because the previously unsettled areas had been broken into areas of settlement. Turner uses the definition of two people per square mile of land as the frontier’s official closing, and no longer a point of historical relevance. In the essay, Turner points out the differences in America’s expansion with other nations. Other nations developed in a confined area, then

If Scotland leav UK, it is probable that the number of votes in favor of Labors will decrease, “the Labour party has 41 members of parliament in Scottish seats while the Conservative Party has only one.” (2014). This means that Labour’s message is likely to change to attract more voters from England.

In Frederick Jackson’s Turner frontier thesis, he describes how important the frontier is to the development of America and how it allowed many to obtain a new life. He describes how Americans have managed to transform the wilderness little by little and making this new land their home, “Little by little he transforms the wilderness, but the outcome is not the old Europe, not simply the development of Germanic germs…The fact is that here is a new product that is American” . The frontier thesis is also used to describe the individuality of America and prove that it is an independent country that no longer has ties with other nations as well as making it clear that America is unique in its own way. Westward expansion offered many the opportunity to re-identify themselves and create a nation that offered a new form of American life.

In addition, Olsson in her article suggests that Walmart is over work their employees. By doing so, Olsson shows how Walmart employees struggle to keep their job, even when they over work. Moreover, Olsson forms a definite picture that shows us how Walmart employees need their job, despite their low wages and difficult to get promoted. Olsson state, “to get the job done, according to the dozens of employee lawsuits filed against the company, Wal-Mart routinely forces employees to work overtime without pay” (4). In short, Olsson claims that Walmart employees work overtime all the time but still don’t getting paid for it, and former employees that now suing Walmart declare those allegations. Furthermore, Olsson uses of an example that shows that

21st century man should be somewhat envious, the total cost of a first date was complimentary on the girl’s family. Affordable transportation changed things, provided quality of life and ushered in a group called “teenagers”. The auto meant it was the last free meal for boys, dates meant access to a car, gas, dinner and a movie. To win the heart of a woman a young man had to work, at least part time to afford this new habit, “girls”. The auto could be compared to the affect social media has today, it turned boys and girls into mobile adolescents with an option to explore beyond the immediate world. The auto also provided privacy for raging hormones, cars became mobile hotel rooms where many babies would be conceived.

Considerable debate remains around how to read Aquinas on cognition. Some scholars, most recently Richard T. Lambert, argue that Aquinas is predominantly Aristotelian. Other scholars argue that Aquinas is predominantly Augustinian or following broad Neoplatonic impulses. The sheer extent of scholarly attention Aquinas has sustained over the centuries makes the material difficult to wade through and avoiding controversial claims impossible. Therefore, the following summary is an interpretation—one possible reading which I hope you will find convincing for the sake of the argument. This section proceeds in two parts. First, I provide a general overview of Aquinas on human knowledge of ordinary things. Second, I describe the possibility for human
