Enclosure

It was a direct result of the Amicable Grant and the threatening poverty that the problem of enclosure escalated. Enclosure meant that landlords could enclose a part of their land and cease arable farming for the more profitable pastoral farming. As this required less workmen it led to an increase in unemployment in rural areas and was also blamed for depopulation, vagrancy, food shortages and inflation; although how much it real caused and which problems it only worsened is questionable. Official enquiries were managed by Wolsey on a national level in 1517, 1518 and 1527 which led to the prosecution of landowners who had enclosed too much space. 264 landowners were prosecuted including bishops, knights, nobles, religious heads and colleagues…

Economic and social issues were the main cause of Tudor Rebellion in Tudor England. Tudor England encountered problems with their economy and society. The society suffered from economic issues such as enclosure and bad harvest but also, they encountered problems with the nobility and the government. These issues concerned the majority of the people that started off rebellions. However, there were evidently rebellions that did not emphasise the problems of economic and social issues and saw…

Therefore she is made aware that she has to create some sort of shelter and states, “to write about I would enclose” (2). The speaker wants to restrict her writing by putting the composition into an enclosure where it will be protected. She knows that she wants her writing to be kept safe, and she does this by creating an area surrounded by “chicken wire” (3). This wire is a thin wire netting surrounding an area with tight mesh, to keep chickens or other livestock safe from lurking predators.…

The British Empire heavily influenced the population through ideas of modernisation, whilst significant agriculture improvements provided for the growing population. Agriculture also heavily provided the vital manpower and workforce needed due to the influential enclosure acts introduced by the government. Undoubtedly, urbanisation has proved to play a huge role in achieving Britain’s workforce in previous years however it was due to the ambition and drive on modernisation that it strived in…

Although the indoor trampoline park industry is unregulated, Sky Zone Indoor Trampoline Park is “safe, healthy, fun” because of its thorough rule system and differentiation from other parks. An indoor trampoline park is a new take on the outdoor “jump centres” that debuted in the 1960s, “located indoors, and have wall to wall trampolines to prevent people falling of the trampolines onto hard surfaces.” (Wikipedia, 2014) Sky Zone Indoor Trampoline Park first opened in 2004 in Las Vegas, Nevada…

It appeared to have some answer to the growing problem of how to prevent and end starvation. Many countries with independent government that were looking for a dramatic change, so they made the transfer of land from tribal peoples to an individual that they truest. Hardin missed an essential point in his argument that the individual who was going to be in charge of the land would prioritize money instead of sustainability of the land and the people. George Monbiot in the article “The Tragedy of…

For my project, I chose to design and create a zoo enclosure for a “family” of Bornean Orangutans otherwise known by their scientific name; Pongo pygmaeus. For the construction of this enclosure, I used a box, which I spray painted and cut the top off. This allowed me to mimic a designated viewing area where the Orangutans would hypothetically be placed. Using cardboard walls was not my first choice but I wanted to show specific boundaries of the enclosure. Orangutans are an arboreal species,…

is harmful to their development. The possibility for the animals to roam over miles of flat land is impossible when kept in small enclosures. Imagine if you weighed 2,600lbs and were 18 feet tall. Would you want to be in a small space with other “huge people?” If we were to send giraffes back to the savanna, or construct a giraffe sanctuary, giraffes would be able to run more freely. But, in the United States, we are able to make larger…

It is November 18, 2016 at 1:00 pm and the sun is shining when me and my group enter the Birmingham zoo. My group consisted of Jasmine Williamson, Daniel Munger, and James Lowery. When entering the Primate house we started looking around and finding all the primates in the primate house and then choosing which ones each of us were doing. My hypothesis is whether there is specific behavior of non-human primates due to their size. The scientific name for the Angolan Black and White Colobus monkey…

This in itself will affect the food chain and this will change a the pond ecosystem. The influx in amphibians means that there will be less food for the other creatures in the food chain. This won’t have a major impact on the environment but it will certainly affect it. Other than that it has no negative effects on the environment. Also it will take electricity to run the enclosures and maintain them this has the potential to endanger the environment if we don’t use efficient electrical…
