History
1 answer:
Alexus [3.1K]1 year ago

Answer:

Debt slavery, also called debt servitude, debt bondage, or debt peonage, a state of indebtedness to landowners or merchant employers that limits the autonomy of producers and provides the owners of capital with cheap labour. Examples of debt slavery, indentured servitude, peonage, and other forms of forced labour exist around the world and throughout history, but the boundaries between them can be difficult to define (see slavery). It is instructive to consider one prevalent system of debt slavery as a means of identifying the characteristics typical of the condition. This article therefore describes the system that existed among sharecroppers and landowners in the American South from the 1860s until World War II.

9966 [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

The Roman civilization (Ancient Rome) arose from a small agricultural community founded in the Italian peninsula, city of Rome, in the tenth century BC (according to tradition in 753 BC) located on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea became one of the greatest empires of the ancient world.

Rome was a monarchy. Later (509 BC) was a Latin Republic, and in 27 a. C. became an empire. The period of greatest splendor of Roman culture is known as Roman Pax (Roman Peace), due to the relative state of harmony that prevailed in the regions that were under Roman rule, a period of order and prosperity that met the Empire under the dynasty of the Antonines (96-192 AD) and, to a lesser extent, the Severians (193-235 AD). It marked the golden age of the West and the awakening of the East.

In its centuries of existence, the Roman civilization passed from a monarchy to an oligarchic republic and then to an increasingly autocratic empire that added many territories through conquest and cultural assimilation. The Romans came to dominate in their heyday from Britain, the Sahara desert and from the Iberian Peninsula to the Euphrates, causing an important cultural flourishing in each place where he ruled

Rome was plagued by internal instability and attacked by several migrant barbarian peoples that detached the western part of the empire where independent barbarian kingdoms were founded in the 5th century, including in Italy, Hispania, Gaul, Britannia and Africa.

The Eastern Roman Empire, which was ruled from Constantinople, comprising Greece, the Balkans, Asia Minor, Syria and Egypt, survived this crisis. Despite the subsequent loss of Syria and Egypt due to the power of the Islamic Arab empire, the Eastern Roman Empire survived almost a millennium more compared to the Western Roman Empire, until its last remnants were finally annexed by the Turkish Ottoman Empire that emerged as a power in the eastern region. This Eastern Christian empire of the medieval period is usually known as the Byzantine Empire by historians.

Roman civilization is often grouped into "classical antiquity", with ancient Greece, a civilization that inspired much of the culture of ancient Rome. Ancient Rome contributed greatly to the development of legal science (law), war, art, literature, architecture, technology, religion and language in the Western world, and its history continues to have a great influence on the today's world

Nimfa-mama [501]

This question asks you to brainstorm in order to generate ideas. When you brainstorm, you do not usually reach a concrete solution. However, you might be able to clarify the path you want to follow in order to continue your research. You could start by answering these questions:

<em>What interests you about this topic? </em>

This is a personal answer, but you could think about the time period in terms of culture, art, politics and society and see what parts of it you might find interesting. For example, we can choose Reconstruction as an interesting event of the time period.

<em>What do you already know about this topic? </em>

Reconstruction (roughly 1863 to 1877) was the period of time after the Civil War during which the Confederacy and the Union needed to be reunited. It was also the time period during which former slaves needed to be integrated into mainstream American society, and given proper rights and freedoms.

<em>How does this topic relate to you or to people you know? </em>

If you know anyone from a different region of the country, or any African Americans, it is likely that Reconstruction affected their ancestors. Moreover, the country has become stronger and more unified thanks to the policies passed during this time period.

<em>What is appropriate for an essay on the topic? </em>

An appropriate topic could be the role that African Americans played in Reconstruction, or the goals that African American leaders achieved during Reconstruction.

Which of the following correctly describes the difference in Francis Bacon and René Descartes' approach to science?
natka813 [3]

Rene Descartes is frequently considered the first modern philosopher. His first publication, Discourse on Method (1637), was the touchstone of the scientific method. A response to the lack of clarity he saw in the world of science, Discourse describes how scientific study should be prosecuted so as to achieve the utmost clarity, by using deductive reasoning to test hypotheses. Descartes explained that the test of an alleged truth is the clarity with which it may be apprehended, or proven. "I think, therefore I am," (cogito ergo sum) is Descartes' famous example of the most clearly apprehended truth. In effect, the evidence of thought proves the hypothesis of existence.


Descartes dabbled extensively in the study of cosmology and the nature of matter, developing theories on the make up of matter and the formulation and operation of heavenly bodies. Though Descartes' astronomical explanation failed to account for many observed phenomena, his great prestige propelled his theory into fashion among the educated elite intellectuals of Europe. Descartes was even about to publish a book on cosmology, entitled The World, in 1653, when he heard of Galileo Galilei's condemnation by the Church and thought better of it. Descartes tried to apply his physical theories and expand upon them in his works on human anatomy, which, though pioneering in some respects, were largely erroneous. He further wrote about the spiritual nature of man and theorized about the existence of the soul. The Cartesian philosophy (derived from his name, Descartes) won many followers during the seventeenth century.


Francis Bacon, also called Lord Verulam, was somewhat less renowned and less successful than Descartes, but nevertheless highly influential. Bacon advocated the collection of all possible facts and phenomena and the processing of these through a sort of automatic logical mill. Bacon warned scientists against four famous false notions, called Idols.


1. Idols of the Tribe were fallacies in humankind, most notably man's proneness to believe that nature was ordered to a higher degree than it actually was.


2. Idols of the Cave were misconceptions inherent in individuals' thoughts, spawned by private prejudices.


3. Idols of the Marketplace were errors that arose from received systems of thought.
