My best source: Lee, Stephen. "HITLER AND NAZI GERMANY." questions and analysis in history (2000).

Germans history has attracted the attention of many historians mainly due to its interesting aspects and the brutality of Adolf Hitler their leader. Stephen Lee gives a meticulous history of Germany in his pdf article HITLER AND NAZI GERMANY. Though recent, the article addresses Nazism during the reign of Hitler. However, my attention was attracted by his 15 page first topic on the rise of Nazism. Several webpages such as “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler%27s_rise_to_power” discusses Nazism but I chose Stephen Lee’s article since it gives not only a detailed analysis of Nazism but also Hitler’s life as a leader and how ...

The Prophet’s Mosque

Two categories describe the distinctive visual elements of Islamic art/architecture as decorated surface and structural shape. Understanding these characteristics of Islamic art/architecture proves a historical journey of the second holy mosque built next to the Prophet Muhammad’s home in Medinah in the 5th century 622 C.E. (Araffin 2005). The evolution of mosques from the humble rendering of the first erected with the Prophet’s own hands to the geometric patterned, repetitive designed, and calligraphy domed places of prayer and worship found in the Islamic world today is a testament to the faith in God of all Muslims globally. The ensuing ...

The dark ages in the European history could be attributed mostly to having made no worthwhile positive contribution to the development of the continent. It was a period that was characterized by stories of stagnated growth in the educational, cultural, as well as the artistic cultures of the time. Like the era was referred later on in history, it was an era most people do not want to say was part of their history. The dark ages were a period that is accepted to have begun with the fall of the Roman Empire and lasted until the advent of the new ...

My representations are of two materials that are closely related about the suburbs of St. Louis and as such are from approximately the same period. The first is a picture from 1917 and is named "mob stopping street car". The second is an article from the New York Times called “Massacre at St. Louis." The major theme that keeps reoccurring in these two texts is that of racism in America. Saint Louis is rumored to be one of the most racist cities in the country, and that is no exception to its suburbs.

Hachette’s article “Nazism of Adolf Hitler” provides a refreshing overview of Nazism thrive under Hitler in the 1920’s. It paints a clear picture of the factors that motivated Hitler to adopt the Nazi strategy in Germany. He states that Hitler’s main motivation was his dream for the establishment of an “Aryan” state which would be comprised exclusively of members from a ‘single special’ race. The other motivation was his dislike for minorities like the Jews. However, Hachette’s article does not discretely ...

No can deny that the Great Depression created traumatic times for all the people living in the United States. “I get hundreds of letters each day and practically every one carries the same story, hence I am positively convinced that conditions are extremely bad, not only in our section but throughout the entire country.” In 1932 the front page of The Pharos Tribune reported that “water was being turned off in homes of the poor, meaning that many people were not only starving, but thirsty too.” Across the whole continent there was joblessness and homelessness.

Thesis statement

Modern research in science can be traced to the 16 and 17th centuries. However, the most astounding discoveries were made from 18th century to the mid-20th century. Achievements made in science and technology (especially in the fields of production, transport and communications), gave birth to the industrial revolution. Industrial growth was experienced not only in capitalist states, but also in the communist Russia and other backward countries like Mexico. These changes have come to be associated with the modern global civilization. The rapid progress of science and technology has been associated with the enormous use of raw materials that ...

Introduction

Over the course of history there has been a close relationship between rhetoric and music; this is especially evident in the Baroque period (rhetoric).

Until relatively recently in Western society, music was an form primarily focused on vocals, and consequently words were of extremely high importance. Due to this trend, composers were usually inspired by rhetorical principles when coalescing text and music (rhetoric). Likewise, even after instrumental-centered music became popular, rhetoric principles continued to be relied on in creating both vocal and instrumental music.

What is still largely unclear is how the interrelationships influenced the craft of composition. This is ...

In archeology, DNA analysis has been used as an investigatory tool since it became available to scientists. DNA analysis, which is a constantly developing and expanding field, has allowed archaeologists to precisely and decisively obtain results that solve archaeological, historical, and evolutionary questions. Unfortunately, the methods for using ancient DNA analysis tend to destroy the samples from which the DNA is extracted. The results can easily be affected by external contamination as well, which requires the research to be conducted within specialized laboratories by trained laboratory personnel (Arandjelovic, Guschanski, Schubert, Harris, Thalmann, Siedel, & Vigilant, 2009).
DNA analysis has been ...

Maya civilization is considered as a mysterious civilization that existed in ancient time. However, the mystery of the Maya is still not undiscovered as no one is sure about the Mayans, their method of living and the the exact reason of the rapid collapse of the Maya civilization. It is believed that the Maya civilization started on 12th August, 3113 B.C., but the archeologists believed that the Maya civilization came into being in 3000 B.C. The Maya civilization, however, disappeared mysteriously in 800 A.D. – 925 A.D. The Mayans lived majorly in the areas, which are now known as Northern Yucatan ...

Background of the Study

Since the establishment of the People’s Republic of China (PRC), the role of China in the relation between Thailand and Cambodia has been quite evident. China has been involved in a number of ways, including the border disputes between Cambodia and Thailand, which started several years ago. Cambodia’s historical concern about Thailand’s inversion on its western provinces depicts a case where an ASEAN state has suspended diplomatic relations with another (Weatherbee 2008). The border dispute started in 1954, and in 2003, it took a new course. This conflict has impacted negatively on the development of ASEAN and on the ...

Glassmaking Technologies in the Late 18th Dynasty of Ancient Egypt, 1351-1323 BCE

Description of Project
The XVIII Dynasty of ancient Egypt is likely the most familiar period of Egyptian history for people today. This is due to the major news event of 1923, when Howard Carter opened the sealed tomb of Tutankhamun, a teenage pharaoh who ruled from 1332 to 1323 BCE (Schultz 2010). King Tut, as he was nicknamed by the press, was laid to rest in the Valley of the Kings in a tomb full of precious objects, with rich drawings on its walls that illustrated the young king’s life. Many of those objects were made of, or ...

Excavations have timely revealed the traces of many diseases such as Tuberculosis in Egyptian Mummies indicating that they originated in ancient Egypt. Similarly, smallpox rushes were found on three mummies suggesting that smallpox might also have originated in ancient Egypt. However, the earliest written record of a disease that appears to be smallpox appeared in China, India, and Asia in the 4th Century CE, 7th century, and 10th century respectively. However, smallpox is also associated with major plagues that happen many years ago without clear identification such as the plague of Athens and the Antonine plague.

The XIX century was a period when there were some profound societal, political and economic transformations in the USA. Some of the movements such as abolitionism or women’s suffrage would not have been successful, if there had not been strong advocates in the civil society. One of such figures was Angelina Grimke, who was White, but the racial issues did not stop her from participating in the public debate concerning slavery and women’s rights. Her activity was unconventional for the mid-XIX century and it is important to investigate why her name should be written in the U.S. ...

History portrays famous people who created, changed, and improved the lives of the community, the obstacles that occurred in the past such as economic depressions, illnesses, and the development of technology. It is because of history that modern societies of the twentieth-century learned valuable knowledge from their predecessors. However, what the history omits is the role played by the children especially during the medieval times. This paper proposes to study the life of medieval children as well as their role in the society. The status of children was often ignored; the scarcity of historical documents makes it almost impossible ...

Thus, in this paper, the correlation between the Sykes-Picot agreement, formation of the Palestinian identity, and creation of ...

Racism in the United States continues to be a big issue nationally and in states, institutions, offices and daily commute. However, it is not as severe as it were in the past few centuries.

Racism is existent in concentrated areas like schools and prisons where different races forms alliances amongst themselves. It leads to constant racial fights and drifts. The new generation of racism should be a national issue whereby everyone should change their ...

History plays a major role in the growth of a community. It can make it either better or worse depending on how people take up the lessons learnt. A positive effect would be ideal in the overall progress of a community since it will guarantee fairness while negative effects might lead to more collisions with the affected parties. Slavery exhibits both positive and negative effects to the community. Slavery is the imprisonment of an inferior race or community with the aim of making them workers. The slavery trade brought different reactions and impacts to the society that still affects ...

Human Immunodeficiency Virus, or HIV, is a virus that weakens the immune system in humans. This is accomplished as the virus attacks the cells that fight infection and diseases. As a virus, it is similar in nature to other viruses, such as the flu. Unlike other viruses, however, the symptoms associated with HIV do not improve over time as HIV reproduces by systematically overtaking the cells within the host body. HIV does not heal and once an individual is infected, that individual will live the remainder of their life with this virus (aids.gov, n.d.).
The symptoms associated with HIV may ...

Abstract

Revolution refers to the drastic changes in the governmental institution, which is carried out by the non-institutional forces. According to Theda Skocpol’s model of revolutions, the revolutions begin with the “Crisis of State” that is initiated by diverse international factors including the security and economic competition from the world. This condition of “crisis of state” is augmented by a second factor that involves the “Class Dominance” that identifies that which group will exploit the situation of revolution. These two basic factors bring about the social revolution. This research will highlight that the model elucidated by Skocpol is an appropriate ...

Discrimination at the work place as a result of sex orientation is a common occurrence in virtually all countries.

History of tort law
Tort law originated a century ago when Oliver Wendell Junior examined the history of negligence in the legal system, which later resulted in the theory of tort. He concluded in his study that the duty to exercise care in England was faulty. He noted that most plaintiffs suffered overwhelmingly when another party or entity caused a significant level of damage to them. Similarly, Morton J. Horwitz reexamines the history of negligence and found out that many jurisdictions did not understand negligence as carelessness or fault (Kaczorowski). Since its discovery, many nations such as the USA, ...

Skin cancer is a growing epidemic around the world and rates of incidence rise every year (between 1992 and 2006, the increase was up to 77%). Skin cancer is usually directly related to ultraviolet radiation, especially from the sun and tanning beds. Additionally, there is a misconception that winter sun is less harmful than summer sun, which indirectly leads to numerous cases of skin cancer. Many skin cancers are treatable if detected early; however, prevention of unsafe sun exposure would decrease the number of diagnoses. Nurse practitioners have a great role in health promotion and skin cancer prevention, simply ...

The early hospital readmission rate in a 30-bed psychiatric unit in California is 25%. This figure is higher than the 13% reported in the literature for high-income countries like the US (Vigod et al., 2013).

International relations concerns relationships between countries or states. The relationships also concern Inter-governmental, International nongovernmental (INGO) and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) (Buzan & Little 8). International relations encompass state relationships in trade and economics, politics, social-cultural activities such as sports among others. The history of international relations can be traced from thousands of years. Political scientists, Little and Buzan, considered interactions among ancient Sumerian cities in 3,500 BC as a fully-established international system (9).

The history of international relations considering countries can be traced to the Peace of Westphalia in 1648 which ended the “thirty years of war”. The “peace of ...

Africa is a continent that is divided by many countries, literally. It is one of the most tumultuous places in the planet thanks to the numerous eruptions of civil wars and episodes of unrest just in the past decades. That number only increases if the timeframe gets adjusted to the past hundreds of years. Africa and countries within it like Nigeria are rich in natural resources. However, because of the long history and apparently unstoppable occurrence of civil wars and other forms of armed conflict, they are prevented from benefiting from that advantage. In this paper, the author discusses ...
