Hindus And Muslims Mohandas Gandhi
1,590 wordsFew men have ever had as much of an effect on our world as Mohandas Gandhi, though he used the message of peace and love, rather than war and destruction.

Public Spirited Gentleman Lees Suspicions Franklin
1,981 wordsBenjamin Franklin, a Path beyond the Thought Like many of the colonists of his generation, Benjamin Franklins character was shaped by pragmatism, rather than by religion or ideology. He was most comfortable pursuing practical, achievable, goals. Indeed, if Morgan is right, Franklins chief goal was to be useful to his contemporaries. In Franklin, Morgan has a truly great subject. A self-educated polymath endowed with formidable charm and genius, Franklin became the leading figure in colonial poli...

Arthur Millers Scarlet Letter

Native Culture Caste System
797 wordsI must say that Rudyard Kiplings Kim can be interpreted as a project that articulates the hegemonic relations between the colonizer and the colonized during British imperial rule in India. Kiplings novel explores how Kim embodies the absolute divisions between white and non white that existed in India and elsewhere at a time when the dominantly white Christian countries of Europe controlled approximately 85 percent of the worlds surface.

Puritans Jamestown Land
310 wordsIn view of Jamestown's exposure to the elements such as rising tides, flooding, hurricanes, etc. as well as the swampy nature of the land itself, why would the settlers choose that location above others to establish a settlement? It would seem logical to setup organized communities, like the puritans that foster a central church and a sense of union. I find it interesting and intelligent of the puritans to setup towns in a configuration as noted in American Promise (p. 87) that depicts the stand...
