Tragical history

There have been several people that have made history in the past and in the present. These various events have occurred in different parts of the world and are documented through writing, art, and other literary forms. In “Rituals of Memory and “Once Upon a time” both pieces of literature display community building. In this analysis, I will be comparing the differences and similarities between both passages. First off, these prompts are similar by how the community is described, and how the communities

Humanity has had a long and rich history, where much of history is written from only a few perspectives throughout the ages. Whichever perspectives were most clearly and widely distributed are the perspectives contained in the majority of the history books, no matter how limited or biased. Most of these perspectives are born from European backgrounds, where the dominant European backgrounds are the result of victories in war and expansion of not only territories but also beliefs. The country that

importance of students walking out. In the classroom scene, Sal spoke to the class about representation within their text books. There was no mention of Mexican-Americans/ Chicano in their history textbooks. Because of this the students were not aware of Chicano involvement, pride, or impact in American history. Sal mentioned the Vietnam War, Civil War, etc. The lighting and the dialogue within this scene created a melodramatic atmosphere, in which the kids silently reflected on the present and

Buclminister Fuller said “You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.” If the past world could learn one thing about today’s world it would be the morals our world has learned over time. But since that’s easier said than done hopefully the world would just understand the quote. Maybe if the world of the past saw that it was wrong and changed it, slavery would never have existed. But instead society changed

Henrietta Lacks, Deborah Lacks is telling her brothers that when they go back into history, that they should not approach it “with a hate attitude.” (Skloot), but with an unbiased mind for the opinions of then differed from current ones. Deborah’s brothers are being realistic while Deborah herself is being too idealistic in regards to how she and her brothers view the past. I do not think it is possible to approach history from an objective point of view because all the events that are occurring today

Fact Sheet) Why is history significant in our daily lives? History is vital in our daily lives for several reasons. Some people think it is not important in our daily lives, but that’s not true. History is crucial because it helps us understand the present problems that we have and what we have learned throughout recorded history.

The music video for New Rules by Dua Lipa is an example of mythology at work. The video depicts Dua Lipa breaking away from the cycle of a toxic relationship and embracing a new set of “rules” for herself. At first glance, it seems that the most “mythological” elements of this music video are when there is a flock of flamingos dancing underwater or when Dua Lipa and the women around her walk on water. While those elements are significant, I believe that the most important aspect of the music video

“New world history emerged at a time of dramatic expansion in the thematic scope of historical analysis” There are many forms of looking at history, the most prominent being Eurocentric and nation-state perspectives. However from the 20th to the 21st century up to date, historians have begun straying away from these view points and gravitating towards the world history perspective. Here I will briefly look at the pros, cons and implementation of the world history view point using the example of

Recently, people have been calling for the return of artifacts to their country of origin. In turn, many museums have returned the object back to where they came from. Now expert and some others are asking the larger question. Should cultural artifacts be required to be returned to their countries of origin? Artifacts shouldn’t need to be returned to their original country for three reasons. These three reasons are (if the artifacts had not been illegally obtained) the people of other countries should

her essay “On Seeing and Not Seeing: A Case of Historical Invisibility”. Historical invisibility in her treatise of the women’s voluntary associations is what she aims to bring awareness for, she admits that there will always be partial vision to history and asks questions what historians like herself, Mowry, and Huthmacher need to do to limit this effect. Not limiting its effect will lead to readers being fed misleading information or crucial details about their subject matters. Since her essay is
