The Medieval Cathedral in its Cultural Setting 1. How was the medieval cathedral related to its: a.) political b.) economic c.) social, and d.) religious setting? The cathedrals built during the medieval era were related to many aspects of medieval life due to the fact that the construction of a single cathedral was such a large production, let alone the construction of dozens upon dozens in Europe’s towns and cities.
While driving through my grandmother’s quiet town of Bloomfield, you might encounter a quiet yet thriving farmer’s market on the outskirts of town. Weekly, farmers bring their crops to be sold to local buyers. Here is the locavore movement, intrinsically linked not only to a close knit quiet town, but also to issues of nutrition, sustainability, and economics. Locally grown food is a great way to reduce your carbon footprint while enjoying tastier, healthier food at a lower cost. The nutritional value of food grown locally is far superior to that of alien products with many food miles to them (items shipped over oceans, countries, and borders).
It also had a stable government, which allowed for the people to begin industrializing in the first place, harbors for trade, a very large population resulting in a very large workforce, and many water ways throughout the country to transport materials and products as well as to use for water power at mills. There are several reasons why the Industrial revolution started in the first place. One reason being that there was widespread resistance to disease in Europe as well as a reliable food supply, allowing for steady population growth, which in return created more demand for products, which in turn resulted in new ways of producing products more efficiently in response to demand. As a result of Industrialization, a new economic philosophy arose. Capitalism called for the lack of government intervention in the economy.
This has occurred as a result of rapid advances in transport and telecommunications technology, such that it is now possible to buy and sell stock, place orders for delivery/production of good and discuss business strategy at the click of a button. World cities are cities such as New York, London, Paris and Tokyo, and they fall into global hierarchy of dominance and dependence more of which will be discussed in character. Mega cities in the developing world contract a great deal to this. Whereas world cities play important roles globally, megacities in the DW tend to have their influence limited to the nation in which they exist. This is a result of the fact that more than 40% of the less developed nations population live in megacities; making them large hubs for population, employment and free riding off services such as sanitation and water not provided in rural areas (and only marginally supplied in megacities incidentally).
How successful was Edward VI in restoring royal authority in the period to 1470? Edward IV enjoyed successes and also failures in restoring royal authority in the period to 1470. Edward had some successes in dealing with over mighty subjects, for example, his marriage to Elisabeth Woodville shows that he was not controlled by an over powering Warwick. This was important as it showed both Warwick and the rest of the country that he was not controlled by Warwick and could make his own decisions. Another way that Edward IV proved that he was not a ‘puppet king’ as Henry VI was seen as was by removing Warwick’s brother, George Neville, as chancellor.
According to FEMA reports, in September 26, 2005, they have already approved 265,000 applications for temporary housing payments. Eventually, many families will resettle back into their homes or even join in new communities, but regardless, families and communities have been dramatically transformed by the storm. Additionally, Hurricane Katrina has made one of the poorest areas in the United States even poorer. According to geographical analysis by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) flood and damage assessments and year 2000 Census data, The CRS estimates that of the people to have been displaced by the hurricane, about half lived in New Orleans. Due to the city’s social composition, the storm most heavily impacted the poor and African Americans, who were less likely to have connected to the workforce and were educationally disadvantaged.
This is shown in document 3 of the wjec pack. Also with Wellington as Prime minister the likelihood of reform being passed was very slim as he was a large representative of the aristocracy, in document 4 of the wjec pack the narrow minded attitude of wellington toward reform being passed as it shows that Wellington was under the opinion that reform was not needed in government and thus effectively made reform impossible to occur. The
The city used to be bounded on all sides by small towns but due to its recent sprawl it has enveloped many of them. Saskatoon is completely surrounded by the wealthy municipality of Corman Park. In this paper we will briefly discuss the dramatic climate of Saskatoon but mainly focus on the economy and the socio-cultural aspects. Saskatoon
Man seemed small and scattered too far apart to really connect and learn from each other. The seeming advancement of Europe, shown in scientific and material progress, made their society think that only they alone are a measure of what a government should be, making them blind to other ways control. Other political customs were unheard of and thus only one type of governing was imbedded in the countries mentality. Only rare, thinking individuals, who were open minded and have traveled enough to be exposed to beneficial ideas from other continents, recognized the deficit of mutual respect among humans in the country. Unlike Utopia, people were judged and put value to according to their social status, which most of them had no control over.
I have shown examples of how religious belief was used to build bigger societies and states. The extent to which religion was used varied throughout the world but it was important to allow trade with other cities, showing their wealth (huge temples, pyramids with extravagant carvings), status, the collection and distribution of commodities in the name of the relevant divinity, it bought communities together (to make them stronger in war and to make the people feel safe that they were strong) and people would worship their leading even to the point of sacrificing their lives to their
