THOMAS MORE Do you accept the view that More was a cruel man with little compassion for others? BREAK WITH ROME/REFORMATION Do you agree with the view that the main cause of the English Reformation was the character and influence of Anne Boleyn? Do you agree with the view that the most significant changes of the 1530s were political rather than religious? OPPOSITION Do you agree with the view that the main cause of the Pilgrimage of Grace was widespread dislike of religious changes? Do you accept the view expressed in source X that the Holy Maid of Kent remained important until 1533?
Write down the TWO most important things he says about the writing of history. The two most important things he says about the writing of history are: * He said that we must not accept the memory of states as our own. The history of any country conceals violent conflicts of interest between conquerors and conquered, masters and slaves, capitalists and workers. * But to think that history-writing must intent simply to repeat the failures that control the past is to make historians traitors in an endless cycle of conquest. 1.
The last years of Henrys reign was dominated by conservative and reformist factions . In this essay I will assess the extent of the threat created due to the rivalry of factions that had affected the stability of the government. The execution of Cromwell (1940) was a success for conservatives as was also Henrys marriage to Catharine Haword. The marriage was a gateway to influencing Henry by carving out a new royal policy via Catharine H. This increased tension between the Reformists and conservatives and so the reformists took action to destroy the reputations of Cahrine H , Duke of Norfolk and Gardiner. On the contrary this shows that the disputes between these factions may imply that the King was weak and not in control thus significantly threatening the stability of government .
The "Whig interpretation," as Butterfield calls it, sees history as a struggle between a progression of good libertarian parties and evil reactionary forces, failing to do justice to history's true complexity. The word Whig has its origins in the seventeenth century as a term of abuse against political opponents, and has become a convenient label for one historian to attach to another as a mark of scorn. In Butterfields work, he criticized historians who wrote present-minded history and, in so doing, fell with an echoing thud into traps, which superior historians must avoid. Through Butterfields five sweeping chapters, he makes three remarks that answer the question, why, despite the scolding of an entire discipline do modern historians seem to be drawn to anachronism, or as
Both sources A and B indicate that Charles was instrumental in the collapse of the relationship. In particular source A identifies Charles’ pursuit of ‘policies in religion, foreign affairs and finance” as major factors in contributing to the breakdown. This points to the attempts of Charles to reform the church and move it towards Arminianism; his disastrous failure at Cadiz and La Rochelle costing the country both money and men, and his attempt to finance the crown independently through the illegal collection of customs duties (tunnage and poundage). These policies drove a wedge between crown and parliament and were rooted in Charles’ behaviour and desire to exert his authority. Indeed source A attempts to remove the finger of blame from parliament, which had been accused of grasping to usurp the power and authority of the king, by suggesting that “money and parliamentary privilege were symptoms and not the cause of the breakdown.” Source B supports this notion as it indicates that the policies of Charles’ government “raised fundamental legal, constitutional and religious issues.” In this sense both sources A and B agree with each other,
The ‘peaceful’ methods used by the moderate leaders were not effective in making the British Government accept their demands. As a result a number of politically conscious people became frustrated and disillusioned. At the end of the 19th century, a strong feeling arose among the people that more radical political action was needed to force the British to accept popular demands. Indian National Congress The Indian national Congress was established to provide a platform where leaders from different parts of the country could come and discuss issues concerning India. The body would act as the loudspeaker of the demands of the people of the country.
Assess the impact of the Emperor Tiberius on the Principate The impact that the Emperor Tiberius had on the principate was contested by both the ancient and modern historians through time. Ancient historians mostly comprised detested Tiberius as it was their obligation to expose the evils of the principate under the Julio-Claudians and portray its degeneration into tyranny. His flaws are highlighted by the end of his reign particularly caused by his enigmatic personality, deteriorating relationship with the senate, influence of Sejanus and the repercussions of the treason trials. Whilst modern sources illustrate him from a more positive perspective pointing out his good intentions, effectively administrating the state, vastly improving
Throughout is powerful speech he uses emotional appeals and rhetorical questions to get his ideas across. Henry uses emotional appeal by expressing how much the colonists have been hurt and wronged by the British government. Simply by expressing how much Britain has placed soldiers and naval fleets around the colonies makes there a perception that Britain does not trust the colonies and must guard them like a prison not giving them any rights. Also, by asking rhetorical questions about simple human rights and freedom he puts the listeners into a mindset that they have been wronged. He does not always say exactly what Britain has done but rather mentions their government and then asks a rhetorical question about the man’s freedom.
A form of civil disobedience that both individuals and a group of rogues practice, reading appears as a subversive act capable of undermining the social order. Thus, for those who fight the totalitarian government seek the healing of the nations and an end to oppression and mass ignorance. Rather than bear arms, they bear books. As a work much like Thoreau's "Civil Disobedience/' which calls for blatant challenging of the status quo, Fahrenheit 451 challenges the institutions that encompass our lives and demonstrates literature's ability to cultivate human autonomy. Criticism of Bradbury's works, specifically Fahrenheit 451 can easily be divided into two categories: criticism of the work as literature and criticism of the work as science fiction.
ImperialismOsama bin laden and his followers charged another thing on United Status that the UnitedStates is using his power in the countries where it has military occupation formerly and thegovernments of these countries are alike puppets for it.They also blame that the United States unseat the government who turn against it and denyaccepting his order.There may be others factors about it that why Bin Laden do not like America or hate it. It can bestate that until unless these factors are present the issue of terrorism and insurgency is difficultto resolve. It is also seem that it is difficult to bring any improvement in the politicalcircumstances in the Middle East without resolving such
