Western influence

Ancient Greek culture had major influences on today’s culture; some of these influences include mathematics, government, art and architecture; they even did research in the field of medicine. Many cultures and religions have adapted their ideas from the ancient Greeks. Without the influences of the ancient Greeks our society wouldn’t be the way it is today. The Greek culture lasted from around 776 BCE to 146 BCE (though it is argued to have begun around 1000 BCE), during this time they invented

Western civilization is what we call modern society that mainly includes North America and Western Europe. But how did this western way of life come to be? Their are many different ways but mainly through ancient cultures. The two main ones are the Greek and Roman. Greece with their golden age and Rome with its great Empire and Republic and also together. Their are many ways in which western civilization is like the ancient Greek civilization. They started the Olympic games. Greeks come

the 1850s and the 1860s, a style that is known as the “Japonisme” started emerging in Western Europe, mainly in France. And in the mid-1800s, Japanese people started to trade things with the west again. Thus, as a result of that trading, so many of the Japanese imports were being sent to Europe. This French term, Japonisme describes that period of time when the art of the Japanese people influenced the western art in the 19th century.

widely considered Rome’s greatest speaker and verse writer, but he was also an influential statesman, successful lawyer and a philosopher. He has greatly influenced the western thought and despite his philosophy, the fact that his own contribution to the discipline is usually considered of lesser importance. Through Cicero, The Western philosophers gained access too many important ancient philosophical works that would otherwise be lost forever. All his work was written in a beautiful outstanding Latin

language, the King James Bible also had a profound influence on the culture of both its time and the modern era. By spreading the book to nearly all of Europe in the 1600s, it could have a significant influence on art and literature. Literature like Paradise Lost and The Chronicles of Narnia that reference the Bible would most likely not exist today without King James. These thousands of works with their roots in the Bible have sculpted western culture for hundreds of years; so much that it is difficult

Japanese management: how the western influence and the 1990s crises have modified management practices in Japan, and in Japanese companies broadly speaking?

After the Second World

This was radically different compared to Roman beliefs, but it eventually became the main religion in Rome. His apostles, especially Paul, helped to spread his ideas and began the religion of Christianity. It helped to shape Western civilization, partly because of its huge influence on Rome. The road for Rome to convert to Christianity was a long one with many ups and downs. Rome was tolerant of most religions, as long as they worshipped the Roman gods and the emperor. This was no problem for most

Renaissance, one of the greatest movements in history, set the foundation of our current western civilization. Our economic, political, artistic and scientific origin dates back to the Renaissance era. Those living during this time saw the Renaissance as a revival or rebirth out of the Middle Ages. Feudalism no longer worked, trade increased due to Crusades and the Catholic Church was suffering, becoming more destructive to society. All these changes caused the people of Europe to develop new

For centuries, religion has formed the backbone of society, perhaps even prior to the coining of the term. In many ways, religion influences the actions of its participants, however, it also forms their outlook on life and their worldview. Out of its several influences, the change principally affects their moral sense. Nonetheless, while religion influences its pious members, these individuals simultaneously go on to impact their neighbors. From the Christians’ zeal which initiated the Crusades,
