The Battle of Stirling Bridge was fought in Stirling, Scotland in 1297. The battle was fought between an English army commanded by John de Warenne and a rebel Scottish army jointly commanded by Andrew Moray and William Wallace, near the beginning of the First War of Scottish Independence. The English army greatly outnumbered the Scottish and possessed superior equipment. However, the Scottish carried the day, due to superior use of terrain and tactics. Wallace and Moray devised a plan to…

In other terms he appears to be unjustly accused. Not many accusations were pointed at King James the 1st until after his death.…

So far, I have explained the development of a Newtonian approach to medicine as the result of the combination of a mechanical approach and a strict mathematical treatment of physiology, which ended in Cheyne’s iatromathematics. As Guerrini suggests, this combination is framed in the use of forces between particles as causes for several physiological phenomena and, particularly, those of the secretions. By emphasizing the mathematical elements of the demonstration, the Newtonian physicians…

In the 1800’s, the word “romance” was not used as it is today. The American Scholar A.O. Lovejoy once observed that the word 'romantic ' has come to mean so many things that, by itself, it means nothing at all. Contradictory to the previous statement, F.L. Lucas counted 11,396 definitions of the word, and synonymous usage for ‘romantic’ show that it is perhaps the most remarkable example of a term that can mean many things in accordance to personal and individual needs (Introduction to…

She was the only child of James V of Scotland and Mary of Guise, and through her grandmother Margaret Tudor, Mary had the strongest claim to the throne of England after the children of Henry VIII. This claim (and her Roman Catholicism) made Mary a threat to Elizabeth I of England (who was a protestant), as many English Catholics wanted Mary on the throne in the place of Elizabeth.…

One of the techniques used by Poe was the discovery and exploration of the Right Brain. Poe was an avid follower and believer in Phrenology, although it was studied very little in his time. Poe did not directly discover this part of the brain, but he would still describe it in great detail. He saw it as the exotic part of the mind. What he described as the exotic part of the mind is now officially called the right hemisphere of the brain. He believed this part of the brain dealt with…

Ultimately, without knowing it, Lady Macbeth fails at concealing what she and Macbeth have done. This happens in the famous sleepwalking scene, where her internalized guilt and worry shines through, revealing her murderous secret to the doctor and castle worker. As for the rest of the play, she wears a mask thicker than tar. Her deceptiveness is shown early on in the play, when in Act I, Scene 5, Macbeth tells her of the prophecy, and Lady Macbeth tells him to not worry, to leave it to her.…
