Many people believe the Holocaust was a single man 's beliefs, in the right place, at the right time. Those people, however, would be wrong. The Holocaust wasn 't just a single man 's belief; instead, there were many men throughout the years who contributed to the culmination of the vehement hatred of the Jewish people. By examining various time frames, such as the Middle Ages, more modern times, and even Hitler’s Germany, it is evident that there was a clear buildup of the anti-Semitic…

Sylvia Plath has written many poems that reflect on the horrid Holocaust era, and many people wonder why she chose to put these references in her poems. Her father, Otto Plath, associated himself with the Nazis throughout the Holocaust time period, and she may be referring to this throughout these poems. These poems also reflect the personal struggles of her life. More specifically, Plath’s poem “Daddy” asserts the influences that her personal struggles and her use of vivid Holocaust images have…

The North American Märchen arrived on the shores of America in multiple families and was spread from generation to generation and from community to community as the families spread out and migrated. Debates may exist whether North American Märchen migrated from the Appalachians to the Ozarks or if European settlers into the Ozarks brought the Märchen with them from Europe. Margaret Read McDonald, noted folklorist and lifetime children’s librarian shares the history of the Ozarks with the…

be. The principles of Stalin and the Nazis’ were to create a perfect world. Stalin hoped to create a communist society and forced those who disagreed with him into labor camps.

They both killed millions of people in the process of trying to create these perfect societies. Other nations began to sympathize and want to fight for…

licenses of Jewish tax consultants. They got burned “un-German” books and opposed the idea of Jews taking part in film or theater. Segregation of Jews still continued in 1938, restricting Jews from public schools, universities, sporting events, and “Aryan” zones.

Charlie Chaplin The Speech Charlie Chaplin directed, produced, and starred in the film “The Great Dictator” in 1940. The film was considered by most a propaganda film that showed through comic satire that those that were against us as a country were incapable, untrustworthy cowards. The idea was to create something that would lead the audience to those same conclusions. The speech included in the film became an iconic proclamation of our own issues in the United States at the time. In the film,…

occupied the land to the point of exhaustion. The last and probably the most accurate factor is a political one. Since the Indus states imposed and depended on a heavy tribute, an outsider could have easily undermined.

Because of this, it is considered the “Golden Age” of China’s history. The first ruler discarded most of the harsh Qin policies, but kept the law that states rulers were chosen based on merit, and not on birth. Education was important, and students learned the teachings of Confucius. Iron casting led to…

I aim to explore what is needed in order to be human. Can we turn to science for an answer? Some paleoanthropologists identify the category of the human with the species Homo sapiens, others equate it with the whole genus Homo, some restrict it to the subspecies Homo sapiens, and a few take it to encompass the entire hominin lineage. These differences of opinion are not due to a scarcity of evidence. They are due to the complete absence of what sort of evidence can settle the question of which…
