Reality Check in Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? by Edward Albee Edward Albee’s play seems to bring forth all aspects of life in the 60’s, materialism, plastic appearances, and overconsumption of alcohol to help bring about the true nature of the characters. We have evolved with time, but the social and personal problems we face within ourselves and therefore in relationships today has for the most part, remained the same. The human condition to persevere our appearance has only become stronger with the growth and use of technology and social media. In public, there may be a way we purposely project ourselves in social situations to leave a good impression like George and Martha probably seemed like a perfectly happy couple on the outside to all the other faculty members who attended the party but once they were in a private setting, they took off their masks. In a time when divorce was not nearly as prevalent as it is today, that was a sight to behold. Couples stayed together despite whatever difficulties they would face because essentially divorce was…

Early Interaction between European Powers and Native Americans and the Process of Colonization Introduction This research paper sets to respond to two questions related to Benjamin Franklin and then describe and interpret interactions among early European powers, Native Americans, and the process of colonization, including the development of early forms of governance. Responses to Questions Related to Benjamin Franklin Question One The intended audience of Benjamin Franklin’s writing was the British colonialists and the Native Americans, especially the various Indian tribes who were living along the east coast of North America. Franklin tried to use his work to enlighten them of a possibility of colonial expansion following the rapid increase in population in European nations as it was the case across the American continent. Such expansion is what had resulted in the invasion of the Europeans on the Native American Indians along the east coast, and there was the need for forming agreements that would help govern the relationship between these two groups. These agreements were in the form of what was known as the Indian Treaties, and the majority of…
period of the United States history between 1890 to 1920 On a plot canvas that stretches across the United States and Europe, Daniel T. Rodgers recaps the story of the classic age of attempts to restore the damage of uncontrolled capitalism. Rodgers ponders whether there was a world outside America; he states that if it was, he knew next to nothing concerning it. He was aware of European history, -the ancient aristocracy of rulers, the absurdity of nobility, the ineffectiveness of feudal confrontation- out which America had stepped into independence[1]. A strong-willed challenge to traditional explanations of America’s progressive politics, the chapter by Rodgers brings to mind a forgotten age when the central government was treasured, and when the United States borrowed outlines for creating activist regimes from Europe. Shulman et, al., defines the period of the United States history between 1890 to 1920 as the progressive era; a period of extreme political and social reforms intended at making advancement towards an equal society[2]. Rodgers maintains that the restructuring of American social politics was of a part with movements of…
SOUTH ASIAN HISTORY The Resistance movement in India The colonial Indian society was molded from three primary sources that served to influence the development of their state of mind. Social relations, modes of thought, and their belief system were maintained from the Mughal India era. The emergence of colonial states resulted in the second set of influences, which emerged from their need to maintain a competitive economic state. This was countered by the rise of rebellions around the region that were designated to fight these foreign forces, and maintain the integrity of their culture. This resistance appeared in both armed and unarmed formats, showing the unifying belief that was developed as a result of this rebellion. The rise of the revolt in India in the 1800s demonstrated the local residents’ refusal to submit to their western rulers. It has been stated that there was an epidemic of armed rebellions around the region, with the revolution of 1857/8 being the foremost that comes to mind. These facts should serve to repel the myth that there was hardly any upheaval experienced during…
The American Revolutionary War The American revolutionary war started in Massachusetts at Lexington and Concord in 1775. Also referred to as the American independence war, the revolutionary war was a revolution that involved thirteen American colonies against Great Britain. Although there were different causes of the revolutionary war, the struggle against Great Britain involved a series of historical events. Various causes stimulated the American Revolutionary war. However, the primary causes of the war include the Stamp Act (March 1765), The Townshend Acts (June-July 1767), and the Boston Massacre (March 1770). The stamp act was responsible for taxing a wide range of transactions that took place within the colony. Before the enactment of the stamp act, each province decided on the type of deals eligible for tax. As a result of the Act, the residents went on riot and could not pay taxes to the colonialists (Coakley and Conn 14). The Townshend Act was a legislation idea to tax imports from Great Britain and control illicit trading activities (Conway). Americans struck back through a well-organized boycott and harassing of the British…
