Flagellation

punishment is an explicit practice related to families and by banning it in the U.S it will affect the tradition many families still value. In addition, corporal punishment prevents future negative acts and behaviors from recurring, corporal punishment teaches the child self-discipline. Traditionally, some families implemented corporal punishment in raising children. Corporal punishment was an effective method families used to discipline children. “While the early history of corporal punishment is unclear, the practice was certainly present in classical civilizations, being used in Greece, Rome, Egypt, and Israel. In Medieval Europe, corporal punishment was encouraged by the attitudes of the medieval church towards the human body, with flagellation being a common means of self-discipline” (New World Encyclopedia, 2013). Furthermore, Corporal punishment was even used in the military. This practice was used across a vast of different cultures and institutions. “Corporal Punishment has been a common punishment since ancient times. Jesus was whipped before he was crucified. In England from the Middle Ages whipping was a common punishment for minor crimes. In the 18th century whipping or flogging was a common punishment in the British army and navy. However, it was abolished in 1881” (Lambert,2016). Banning a practice which has a long history, will be a difficult task. Corporal punishment has been passed down from generation-to-generation. If an individual was raised in a home…

decide. The Romans had a custom of releasing a prisoner whom they would people choose at the festivals. Pilate is hoping they would choose Jesus and he would be free of any responsibility. V:7 Marks says a prisoner by the name of Barabbas had committed murder in an insurrection. He was a nationalist who opposed Roman rule and wanted freedom from Rome. He was in prison awaiting his execution. His name is interesting, (Who can tell me just by looking at his name) it means son of the father.…

When we are children, our parents strive to shape us into the best people we can be. Sometimes, the things they do upset us and we don’t understand their goal. Whatever their go-to action for bad behavior, parents only mean the best for their kids. Some parents take the calm approach of time-outs and grounding from favorite activities, while other parents take the approach of spanking/swatting. Some parents only use spanking as a last resort, while others use it multiple times daily. Many people…

The boys were taught to kill innocent people and feel heartless about it. But the strengths were special operations and having no mercy towards the helots. Later on there was a earthquake and the helots rebelled against the spartans. (Document C) After the helots rebelled the Spartans were taught to read and write, and respect older men. (Document D) Each boy of Sparta eight and up participated in “The Flagellation” which takes place each year, at “The Flagellation” boys are in a competition of…

“punched the indistinguishable faces of is assailants” (213). John shows that he has a different sense of freedom than the brave new world. He doesn’t believe that pure happiness is freedom but rather freedom is having the liberty to think for yourselves. As a result of this he tosses the soma out the window for his own persona; truth. [Context] Helmholtz and Bernard walk into the bathroom where John is throwing up. John explains that society “poisoned” him and he was ‘“defiled”; he then…

Everyman did not have to do these things in order to complete his pilgrimage or to face his final judgment in the face of God. Everyman accomplished these tasks in the hope that he would not be dammed for the rest of his life. One perspective of Everyman’s actions could be seen as he has lived an evil and selfish life and finally wanted to relieve his sins and take responsibility for his actions in the last few hours he had before facing his fate. On the other hand, a perspective could be…

Piero della Francesca does just that in his painting “Flagellation”. In this painting there is the use of biblical imagery, which symbolizes the violation of the church. The three men in the foreground seem to flagellation on their minds but the man in the middle seems to not be a real person. He doesn’t have shoes on and seems to be portrayed as important as the other two men. He may symbolize and angel listening and helping the men. Another example of symbolism in religious art pieces is…

WRI 1200 Research Plan My research question is whether corporal punishment early in life leads to incarceration later in life. The reason I picked this topic is the desire to learn the truth about it. Growing up in the South, the phrase “Spare the rod, spoil the child” was a very common term. We knew if we behaved badly we were going to get a whooping. But as I got older and saw friends of mine, one by one, become incarcerated, It made me wonder did our upbringing lead to these incarcerations?…

miasma could linger on the clothes and bedding of the infected as well (Slack, 437). However, there was debate about the origin of the miasma. Some said that God sent the miasma directly to Earth, others said that the miasma was due to certain alignments of the stars. German physician Konrad von Megenberg blamed the miasma on earthquakes caused by God. He believed that the earth held poisonous gases inside, and when God sent an earthquake, the poisonous air could escape through the cracks in the…

People would whip boys all day, until only one man stands. They bravely endured this, cheerful and proud. The last boy standing was held in a special repute. The game was called “The Flagellation”and it takes place every year. Their trainers encouraged them to to steal food, but if they were caught then they were punished. The boys were punished if caught because their trainers want them to be sneaky just in case for battle/war. Furthermore, boys couldn’t study broad which means they didn’t…
