O protect against the attacks of the Enlightenment, government and church authorities waged a war of censorship, or restricting access to ideas and information.
New literature, the arts, science, and philosophy were regular topics of discussions in salons, or informal social gatherings at which writers, artists, philosophies, and others exchanged ideas.
In the age of Louis XIV, courtly art and architecture were either in the Greek or Roman tradition or in grand, ornate style known as baroque.
Rococo art moved away from religion and, unlike the heavy splendor of baroque, was lighter, elegant, and charming.

Frederick the Great reduced the use of torture, allowed a free press, reorganized the government's civil service, simplified laws, and tolerated religious differences for his duty to work for the common good.
Catherine the Great read the works of philosophies, abolished torture, established religious tolerance in her lands, granted nobles a charter of rights, and criticized the institution of serfdom.
Joseph II began to modernize Austria's government, supported religious equality for Protestants and Jews, ended censorship by allowing free press, sold monasteries to use its proceeds to support education and care for the sick, and abolished serfdom.

In the boston massacre

vovikov84 [41]

The composition of the engraving is clearly divided into two sides as if telling “It’s us against them!” On the right side there are the British soldiers dressed in uniform with their rifles with bayonets drawn, firing into the crowd. One of the British regulars is clearly the commander raising the sword and giving the order to fire. All solders and the officer have cold and determined looks on their faces. On the left side, across the clouds of smoke there is a crowd of colonists. Their faces show horror and panic. The engraving accurately shows the five victims. Three men are laying on the ground with blood gushing from the wounds which are clearly shown. Two of them lay right in front and the third one is somewhat obscured by other men standing in the bottom left corner. The man with two chest wounds is believed to be Crispus Attucks, the fist victim to fall during the shooting as he was standing in the front row. Two addition bOdies are being carried by the crowd in the attempt to help them. One of the men in the crowd is looking directly at the solders raising his hand towards them as if trying to make them stop firing. A very interesting detail of the engraving is asmall spotted dog pensively standing in the bottom center, between the shooting solders and the crowd. The dog is being spared from the firing guns. Perhaps Paul Revere meant it as a symbol of the British Soldiers treating colonists worse than dogs?

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

According to the concept of reincarnation, a person would hope to return in a higher caste

Explanation:

The concept of reincarnation is part of the belief system of major religions in the world, but particularly the Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, and other religions.

In essence, what reincarnation states is that the non-physical, non-organic, parts of a living being return to physical, material existence, through the re-acquirement of a physical new body. Basically, the soul, or essence, of the living being, reincarnates in a new body.

Particularly in countries like India, where the topic of castes is so important, and so serious, the people who belong to higher castes enjoy many more benefits than those in lower ones. This is why, people who believe in reincarnation, especially in India, wish they could reincarnate into something better, which would be becoming a member of the higher castes.

Explanation:

In addition, decreases in fertility rates, as well as reductions in family size increased childlessness, and delayed childbearing has allowed many women to seek job opportunities outside the home. African Americans filled many vacancies left by their white counterparts and it had helped to improve their social status.
