Eusibius records the learly life of Origen in glowing terms, describing his great piety and intellectual ability. He portrays a youth so zealous he longed for martydom (6:2). He goes on tto describe his vast accomplishments in learning and his devout and simple life style (6:3). He desribes the mysteries Origen unlocked and the secrets he found, even mastering the Hebrew language and compliing the massive Hexapla (6:18). Eusibius endorsement of Origen makes sense, considering his conection to…

Nazi Germany was Adolf Hitler 's unsuccessful attempt to emulate the Roman Empire. While he did successfully recreate many aspects of the Roman Empire (most of which led to his ultimate failure), Hitler failed to recreate aspects that could have created a successful regime. The Nazis’ (and Hitler’s) image of the Roman Empire was nearly entirely incorrect. As a result, their recreation was a weak, distorted version of what could have been a long lasting empire. Adolf Hitler’s ill-fated quest…

The topics I have selected are ones that I feel made a large impact in the world, and some in…

The Haitian Revolution as a Function of Independent Perspective In my final essay, I would like to examine the focal argument of Adom Getachew’s “Universalism After the Postcolonial Turn: Interpreting the Haitian Revolution” through the lens of CLR James’ revolutionary history The Black Jacobins. Getachew’s essay presents a challenging historiography, studying the way that we write history to centralize Europe and the ideologies that spill forth from it. Primarily, she urges spectators of…

Originally called the New Negro Movement, the Harlem Renaissance began in the 1920’s in Harlem, which is a community that resides in Manhattan, New York City (Haskins, 1941). It created a new black cultural identity and it had an effect on African American literature. The Harlem Renaissance had such an effect on African American culture that it changed the way African Americans were perceived; it was said to be the rebirth of the Harlem Renaissance through its’ leading intellectuals and its’…

Margaret Fuller published “The Great Lawsuit: Man versus Men. Woman versus Women” in the July 1843 number of the Dial before its revision and expansion into a book in late 1844 under the title Woman in the Nineteenth Century. Phyllis Cole in “Fuller’s Lawsuit and Feminist History” mainly refers to Fuller’s use and expansion of the arguments made by feminist predecessors Mary Wollstonecraft and Sarah Grimke. Cole then identifies that Fuller’s use of “the rhetoric of expectancy as a means to its…

2. The interlinkage between democracy and human rights The internationalization of democracy and human rights since World War II is an achievement of great proportions and significance. However, while human rights are regularly seen as universally applicable, not all see the rights-based democracy as the most appropriate form of government for all peoples (LANGLOIS A. J., 2003, p. 990). Some observers have suggested that one way to promote an international human rights regime, while…

Topic Introduction: Stemming from the Enlightenment are fundamental concepts that sparked the American and French Revolutions. Of these enlightenment ideals, reason is by far the most important. Reason – the freedom to think and act for oneself – is a core value that stems from this era. Kant argued that be human is to abandon a life of unreason or a reliance on faith and superstition.
