Trump in June 2015 to declare himself as a candidate for the position of President of the United States of America (Trump, 2015). The first logical fallacy delivered in the speech was related to Trump claiming that his opponents declared themselves in the position of the President of US from rooms where Air conditioners were not working and these candidates are unsuitable to work as the executive head of the country and they would fail to defeat ISIS. This is clearly ...

One view about this would be that women were relegated to the second position in the power chain in the family and society, while men were the overall power holders. On the other hand, when the working economy came into place, circumstances pushed women to join formal employment, ...

Introduction

Love is the most common and the most uncommon thing ever. The first epithet is characteristic for love, as this thing happens (or at least is supposed to happen) in everyone’s life regardless of life, whereas the word “uncommon” is natural for love as well, as it is as unique in every life as possible. Therefore, stories of Kalidasa and Chretien de Troyes are read with lightness; however the times of their creation have been covered with dust for many long years. Such lightness can be explained with the mere fact that authors touch such eternal topics, which ...

Japanese optimism was already very high even before the attack on Pearl Harbor. A large sect within the Japanese Military government held the same ideological notions about the United States and Western Democracies as Hitler did.

Most had expected the attack on Pearl Harbor to lead directly to a treaty granting Japan rule over much of the Pacific (Johnson, 2006, p. 120-126). Even realists within the Japanese cabinet, like Yamamoto, the mastermind behind Pearl Harbor, who accepted the industrial ...

However, this image is far from the truth. Julius Caesar is traditionally presented as a tyrant and a dictator who sought to become king, and who destroyed the republic of Rome because of his ambition to be King. Yet, Caesar, it seems was none of these things. While he may ...
