After a read of Belinda Sutton’s 1783 Petition and the 1791 letter dubbed To Thomas Jefferson from Benjamin Banneker, it is impossible to overlook the authors’ shared perception of men and women of color deserving more than what the Caucasians gave them at the time. Sutton believed that after her years of captivity as the human chattel of one Isaac Royall, she should have a “morsel of [the] immense wealth” her servitude under bondage had given the master (1783, par.5). Similarly, in a wider perspective of the racist ideologies that fueled the slavery system, Banneker insisted that his ...

While Lightner Witmer has been largely credited with the conceptualization and creation of a separate field of study for school psychology (D’Amato et al., 2011), it has it’s true roots, in many ways, in the creation of the IQ test. The IQ test was pioneered by Alfred Binet who was specifically interested in the standards of the normal mind. Today, the Binet-Simon scale, first generated in 1905, is still used in schools to determine a child’s overall ability to perform certain tasks (Binet & Simon, 1905). Perhaps more significantly, however, it was significant that Binet recognized that ...

Compare and Contrast

For a better part of 19th century, various expressive art forms such as orchestral music, Shakespearean drama, sculptures, paintings, and opera enjoyed mass popularity and high-cultural status. However, in America, people shared a culture that was less organized (hierarchically), and less divided into rigid adjectival categories. With time, American arts became increasingly renowned for a growing chasm of “high” and ‘low” culture. Specifically, highbrow culture appeals to the affluent sections of the society who have enough disposable incomes to spend on services and goods that are more expensive and of higher quality. It requires a culture ...

Response Paper

According to Chapter 1 of the Podolny reading, for status to flow through exchange, there is need for the actors to maintain their reputation when it comes to exchange. This means that if an actor in the hierarchy of exchange has earned a good reputation over time, it is not worth ruining for in order to make quick profits from an item whose hype may be short-lived. Maintaining one’s reputation for a service ensures that every actor is able to maintain his or her image and position thereby making sure that the exchange of services flow seamlessly within ...

They came from Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York or Pennsylvania and had to take into account conservative attitudes of the other Founding Fathers some of whom ...

At the foundations of the American Revolutionary War, of between 1775 and 1783, were calls for independence among the Patriots residing in Britain’s Thirteen Colonies in North America. The Americans emerged victoriously and as a result, the English Monarch lost its claims over the vast territories. Now, the understanding of freedom in the thirteen regions revolved around the eradication of tyranny to pave the way for democracy and for that reason alone, the United States abhorred monarchies and promoted a government based on a democratic system.

Question 1

The youngest children in any family often have to go an extra mile to compete with their elder siblings since they are more mature and experienced at most things.

Ningbo’s newly completed Central Business District (CBD) belies its status as one of China’s oldest cities. The austere downtown landscape is the equivalent of architecture’s white-washed wall: a place of erasure, forgetting, and dubious progress.

A craggy mountain of a building inspired by the region’s natural topographical features as well its unique crafts and architectural traditions, the Ningbo Museum is not simply an obligatory nod to ...

United States has for decades been deeply involved in the Middle East, and particularly in the ongoing conflict between Israel and its various neighbors.

Since leaving the State Department, Clinton has provided some indication about what her policies would be in the Middle East in general and Israel in particular. Nevertheless, a certain degree of uncertainty still exists. While there ...

As the spring commencement season winds down, many recent graduates feel trepidation about leaving the academic and purposeful comfort zone.

For this reason, young adults feel obligated to conform to a system in which they express having no active voice or personal control. Often, they feel more flummoxed and adrift than when they started academia with such promise. Therefore, it is not surprising that defiance between ...

1. Translator’s Task According to Benjamin Walter The task of the translator consists in finding that intended effect [intention] upon the language into which he is translating which produces it in the echo of the original (Benjamin, Arendt and Zohn 76) 2. Decline of Storytelling One reason for this phenomenon is obvious: experience has fallen in value. And it looks as if it continues to fall into bottomlessness.

In one way or the other, the play exposed the weak points and the failures of blindly having faith in the American dream, as it leads to a tragedy. Although there is no doubt that the American national values ...

1. “Notes on Punctuation” by Lewis Thomas - Summary The writers use punctuation marks in order to set the tone of the text according to Lewis Thomas. This differs from language to language and there are very few marks in English. It is important to use punctuation so that people do not write in an ambiguous manner. Commas are useful more than any other marks because they have many purposes. They should not be used in great amounts although they add a specific meaning. Lewis thinks that semicolons are important as well because they let the writer express themselves ...

And yet, this important aspect of architecture has been frequently overlooked that sometimes people tend confuse its meaning and end up lost in thought. In simpler terms, representing meant that doing a design similar to ...
