Voltaire was among the first to denounce Christianity and other organized religions as mere ploys to support monarchy. What emerged was Deism, which was more or less a new religion that considered reason its foundation. In Deism, there is no interference by a deity, and man controls his own destiny. These ideas stirred the masses into action, as the people dreamed of carving their own futures. Adopted by the Founding Fathers, Enlightenment ideals became the vision for modernday America, where these ideologies are deeply rooted in the nation. The Enlightenment was important America because it provided the philosophical basis of the American Revolution. The Revolution was more than just a protest against English authority; as it turned out, the American Revolution provided a blueprint for the organization of a democratic society. And while imperfectly done, for
At the start of the book, Freddie is still single and still living with his father. But then he meets Aggie and they start to meet secretly. Freddie is very resourceful and finds ways to get himself out of many different situations. Whenever he gets into trouble he always tries to make it look better, hoping that others would take it easier then. A good example is how he let his father know that he was engaged. Instead of just saying it out he tried to distract his fathers attention and just say it out in the middle of some other text (Quotes 4,10). Freddie also comes up with all sorts of plans on how to make something work. This is because he has seen a lot of movies and even written some himself. He tries to apply the plot to real life and through that help someone close in trouble. He is also very resourceful in this field (Quotes 4,6). Freddie works as a salesman in Donaldson's Dog-Joy and does everything he can think of to sell the product
Chekov Lady and the Lapdog Reid about Chekov: The characters in Chekhov's plays are never fully "known" as a writer, he seems to delight in maintaining a sense of indeterminacy, and unknowability, about them. The bare facts are always laughably inadequate to the complexity of "real" people. Anton Pavlovich Chekhov was born on 29 January (New Style), 1860, in Taganrog, a small port on the Sea of Azov, in southern Russia. As the son of a grocer and grandson of a serf, Chekhov was a first-generation intellectual. His modest background and upbringing are crucial to his development as a writer. Chekhov always felt that he missed out on childhood. It was a very hard lifeand it may have contributed to his poor health: he succumbed later on to the"family disease", tuberculosis, which led to his early death at the age of 44.His mother was a quiet, gentle soul who was full of stories of her early life
This inspired many other translators during that period. • What happened in the 19th and 20th century in translation studies? When and who created the term ‘translation studies’? Translation Studies – James S. Holmes - 1972 Ferdinand de Saussure – Lived during the 19th and 20th century. He was a Swiss linguist and a semiotician. He is widely considered one of the fathers of 20th-century linguistics and one of two major fathers (together with Charles Sanders Peirce) of semiotics/semiology. Saussure's most influential work, Course in General Linguistics (Cours de linguistique générale), was published posthumously in 1916 by former students Charles Bally and Albert Sechehaye on the basis of notes taken from Saussure's lectures in Geneva. The Course became one of the seminal linguistics works of the 20th century, not primarily for the content (many of the ideas had been anticipated in the works of other 20th century

The younger Mr. Dashwood brings John Dashwood, his son from a previous marriage, as well as the three daughters born to his present wife. John Dashwood is grown and married, and has a four-year-old son, Harry. When Old Mr. Dashwood dies, he leaves his estate to John and little Harry, who had much endeared himself to the old man. But now John's father, Henry Dashwood, is left with no way of supporting his wife and three daughters, and he too dies one year later, leaving only ten thousand pounds for his family. Just before his death, he makes his son John promise to care for his stepmother and three half-sisters. Mr
They contended that The Church of England had become a product of political struggles and man-made doctrines. The Puritans were one branch of dissenters who decided that the Church of England was beyond reform. Escaping persecution from church leadership and the King, they came to America. Of Plymouth Plantation Of Plymouth Plantation is the single most complete authority for the story of the Pilgrims and the early years of the Colony they founded. Written between 1620 and 1647, the journal describes the story of the Pilgrims from 1608, when they settled in the Netherlands, through the 1620 Mayflower voyage, until the year 1647. The book ends with a list, written in 1650, of Mayflower passengers and what happened to them.

· Estonian immigration to the United States slowed down dramatically 1924 The Estonian quota fixed at 116; even this small annual quota was not used up *After World War II = In the post World War II years, all three Baltic nations maintained consulates in the United States · About 15,000 Estonians came to the United States · This group was strongly anti-Communist and nationalistic 3. Russian colonization of America. What has preserved from this period to the present? The Russian colonization of the Americas covers the period, from 1732 to 1867, when the Tsarist Imperial Russian Empire laid claim to northern Pacific Coast territories in the Americas. The Russians were primarily interested in the abundance of fur-bearing mammals on Alaska's coast, as stocks had been depleted by overhunting in Siberia. By the middle of the 19th century, profits from Russia's American colonies were in steep decline
Nietzsche believes that the true strength of man is unique and not of everybody: Marlow and Kurtz have this uniqueness. The hero that Nietzsche considers is the law of himself: he does not have to be limited by the consideration for the other people, and by stupid laws and rules. So, the true Nietzsche's hero can be very similar to Kurtz.

several moments in the book (Kemmerich's death, Kat's death, the time that he spends with his ill mother) when he feels himself pulled down by emotion. These surging feelings indicate the extent to which war has programmed Paul to cut himself off from feeling, as when he says, with devastating understatement, "Parting from my friend Albert Kropp was very hard. But a man gets used to that sort of thing in the army." Paul's experience is intended to represent the experience of a whole generation of men, the so-called lost generation--men who went straight from childhood to fighting in World War I, often as adolescents. Paul frequently considers the past and the future from the perspective of his entire generation, noting that, when the war ends, he and his friends will not know what to do, as they have learned to be adults only while fighting the war. The longer that Paul survives
Revision questions for the test on Old English and Medieval Literature. 1.) How is literature analysed and studied? What is the difference between the diachronic and synchronic view?

hooligans have this personality . SUSANNAH - Dreamy, emphatic, modest, fragile, understanding of Tristan's problems, her beauty enhances the battle for her love amongst the three brothers. ONE STAB - The natural, this old Indian merges with the colonel's family needs, status quo lover; doesn't want to speak English, sometimes a story teller of this epic story. He took care of the young fragile baby Tristan. Overview The bond between three disparate brothers provides the focus for this epic drama. Colonel William Ludlow retires to a remote part of Montana with One Stab, a Native American friend, where they build a ranch. Soon after he bought the ranch his wife Isabel, who couldn't deal with the rugged pioneer life, left him with three boys. The brothers Alfred, Tristan and Samuel were raised by their father and the Indian guide One Stab and his wife Pet. Alfred and Tristan are
upon Larkin. This is particularly important since Larkin denied being in any way influenced by what came from abroad. Today we have every reason to see this as a legend that he created about himself. The most significant point made by the two books by Regan is that whether one accepts the image of “provincial Larkin” or that of “modernist (even postmodernist) Larkin”, it is equally significant to make a distinction between the poet and the persona in his poems. He argues, furthermore, that a linguistic or stylistic approach is much more fruitful in the analysis of poetry in general, and Larkin’s poems in particular, than a thematic one. Regan quotes some authors who maintain the view that Larkin’s stylistic effects are based upon a combination of metaphoric (literary) and metonymic (colloquial) language. He, however, can fully accept the method based upon this
Revolutionary ideas was Jacques-Louis David, who, with his paintings, perpetuated The French Revolution from the Republican point of view. His art was mostly tightly connected to the main figures, events and ideas of the French Revolution. David had more than 5 pieces of art that captured the essence of the Revolution. His paintings represented political ethics, current ideals and foundations. Furthermore, the wider public was enthralled with his ability to represent brotherhood and patriotism while using the neoclassicistic style. (Friedlaender, 1952, p.16) Jacques-Louis David was born in Paris in 1748 as the son of an ironmonger. The leader of the French classical movement studied with the artist Joseph-Marie Vien. Although, he attained his real art education in Rome, where he was surrounded by ancient ruins and the masterpieces of great Italian painters. After returning to Paris in 1789 David started to shape
badly can lead to death. Having Gulliver stand with his legs apart so that the Lilliputian armies can walk through is also a ridiculous idea. It is a comment on the pomp and circumstance of English armies. To Swift it seems that armies are often more concerned with looking impressive than with being impressive. This scene might also be an allusion to the Colossus of Rhodes, described in Julius Caesar by Shakespeare as a largerthanlife figure that men could walk through the legs of. The war between the English and the French is parodied in the conflict between the Lilliputians and the Blefuscudians. Their conflict over which end of the egg to break reflects the centuriesold conflict over how to practice religionas Protestants or Catholics. While the wars over religion certainly were very serious, Swift suggests that what was being fought over (at least on the religious rather than the political side) really was not very important
custom, comparison, previous cases & decisions. It was unlike in the rest of Europe. In England trial by ,,ordeal" was replaced with trial by jury. The work of juries gradually changed from giving evidence to judging evidence of others. Now the king's laws were in force everywhere. In 1157 he forced Malcolm IV of Scotland to give up border regions to England. In 1171 he went to Ireland, took it under his rule & made his son John, Lord of Ireland. When he got the throne there had been a civil war between his mother Matilda & uncle Stephen. There was also Church who had become too powerful. The Church wanted the kings of Europe to accept its authority over both spiritual & earthy affairs. Conflict between Henry & Church. He chose his trusted adviser, Thomas Becket, to become archbishop in 1162, but he began to defend the Church. Henry saw him as a traitor, lost his temper. He is said to have exclaimed ,,Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?" 4 knights killed Becket on the altar steps. The
She frequently complains to Jake about how miserable she is--her life, she claims, is aimless and unsatisfying. Her wandering from relationship to relationship parallels Jake and his friends' wandering from bar to bar. Although she will not commit to any one man, she seems uncomfortable being by herself. As Jake remarks, "She can't go anywhere alone." Indeed, there are several misogynist strains in Hemingway's representation of Brett. For instance, she disrupts relationships between men with her very presence. It seems that, in Hemingway's view, a liberated woman is necessarily a corrupting, dangerous force for men. Brett represents a threat to Pedro Romero and his career--she believes that her own strength and independence will eventually spoil Romero's strength and independence. Because she does not conform to traditional feminine behavior, she is a danger to him. As with Jake and his male friends, World War I seems to have played an essential part in the formation of
begins with the lines /Talking in bed ought to be easiest, Lying together there goes back so far/. At first it gives the reader an idea that he is talking about two lovers, but actually he is talking about England and USA. He describes the darkness that is creeping up. In my opinion he is talking about USA, which is beginning to creep up on England or on Europe. And because of that England is becoming a less dominant and more isolated place. He is saying that intimacy is dying and that may represent the globalization. Another political poem I really enjoyed is ´´Homage To a Government´´. Larkin says that next year they are going to bring all the soldiers home, because they (citizens) want the money for them selves. And that their children do not know it's a different country, because they did not achieve anything in the war. But at least they can leave their children some money. I think that Larkin means that the troops are going to be brought home from Vietnam
themes, etc. He wanted to make poetry more subtle, suggestive and precise; to convey the tempo and contradictions of modern life. Uses a lot of allusions, to show that literature (poetry) is one continuous body from past to present. Uses the objective correlative, includes many new elements that used to be considered unpoetic before him. Highly experimental with language, believed that a poet should write verse imitating actual speech – different rhythms, varying form – free verse, rhyme, etc.
Leaves of Grass (1855). This period witnessed the highest lit expression of the Puritan tradition and the emergence of a new cultural and philosophical movement, Transcendentalism. Although the Am frontier was being pushed westward, Massachusetts and Virginia, the Puritan strongholds in the east, remained the centre of cultural activity. The Puritan heritage is clearly evident in the work of Nathaniel Hawthorne, who wrote about the conflict between the good and evil set in the dark, Puritan, New England past. In his masterpiece The Scarlet Letter he uses a mixture of fantasy and realism, symbols and allegories to explore one of his constant themes: the relationship between the individual and society. Herman Melville dedicated his greatest work, Moby Dick, to Hawthorne, in recognition of his friendship and the contribution he made in revising the first draft of the novel

and sat in a box. Young men who were interested in the girl stopped by the box to pay their respects. They had intermediaries talk to the father and ask if they would be permitted to call on the girl at home. The first formal visit was brief, with the girl's mother and perhaps other relatives in attendance who would find out the young man's intentions. After four home visits the father asked the young man if he was serious about his daughter. If the young man wanted to marry the girl the two fathers negotiated the dowry. A notary came to write a list of the couple's possessions and drew up the marriage contract. Once the contract was signed, the families announced the engagement. The girl's family gave a big dinner at her house where the young man gave her an engagement ring. As a fiancée the young man could visit the girl whenever he wanted and take her out, but they were always chaperoned. A few days before the wedding, the young

Sõprus 1. Aristoteles sõpruse olemusest ning tüüpidest Sõprus ja armastus pole selgelt eristatud philia. Sõprus iseloomustab vabal kiindumusel põhinevaid inimsuhteid perekondlikud, võimulolijate suhted kodanikesse, kodanike omavahelised suhted. Sõprus hoiab riike koos. Eeldab vastastikku heasoovlikkust ja ühistegevust. Sõprus jaguneb 2 viisil 3-ks: Vastavalt põhjusele, miks head soovitakse: Kasu äri Nauding sõbrad Täiuslik sõprus loomutäiuselt sarnaste inimeste vahel Vastavalt osapoolte seisundile: Ülimuslikkus vanemad laste suhtes Paremus mehed naiste suhtes Võrdsus vennad Täielikku sõprust naudivad üksikud, sest nad suudavad arendada omavahel loomutäiust täiuslikkuseni. Linnriik põhineb sõprusel, kiindumusel põhinevatel inimestevahelistel suhetel. Timokraatia (varanduslikel klassidel rajanev poliitiline süsteem) põhineb võrdsusel vennalikel suhetel. 2.

King Æthelberht converted to Christianity and also allowed the missionaries to preach freely, giving them land to found a monastery outside the city walls. *St George He is immortalised in the tale of George and the Dragon. According to this story he saved a maiden in distress from a dragon. His memorial is celebrated on 23 April. St. George is a very popular saint and is the patron saint of England, Georgia, Greece, Russia and many other countries. George was offered gifts of land, money and slaves if he made a sacrifice to the Pagan gods, but he refused. So, he was executed for his refusal. Before the execution George gave his wealth to the poor and after his death, the Christians soon came to honor him as a martyr. *St Andrew He is the patron saint of Scotland. He was a very humble man and to honour the Savior he had himself crucified on the X-shaped cross. It was not a regular cross, because
To understand the idea of kingship and lordship in the early Middle Ages it is important to realise that at this time there was little or no idea of nationalism. William controlled two large areas: Normandy, which he had been given by his father, and England, which he had won in war. Both were personal possessions, and it did not matter to the rulers that the ordinary people of one place were English while those of another were French. To William the important difference between Normandy and England was that as duke of Normandy he had to recognise the king of France as his lord, whereas in England he was king with no lord above him. The last Norman kings William II (Rufus) (1087 - 1100) When William died, in 1087, he left the Duchy of Normandy to his elder son, Robert. He gave England to his second son, William. William II was a short stout man with red face, from which came his nickname of Rufus. He was a strong king and ruled his subjects firmly.
practice, each Shire had to elect a number of knights to attend at these meetings at report the decisions to their Shires. Edward I continued this experiment and in 1295 called a parliament that became known as the Model Parliament. The House of Commons as a separate Chamber resulted from the unofficial meeting of these knights and burgesses. The person chosen to speak for these commoners in Parliament became known as the speaker. The Hundred Years War fought between France and England had a devastating effect on the English economy. The high taxation necessary to finance the war and the Black Death (1348) led to such extreme hardship for the peasant class that there was a revolt in 1381. Although the Peasant's Revolt was soon put down, it led to greatly improved conditions for the peasant class and was the first step towards the ending of the feudal system in England. The Tudors
Dodgson's family was predominantly northern English, with Irish connections. Conservative and High Church Anglican, most of Dodgson's ancestors were army officers or Church of England clergymen. His greatgrandfather, also Charles Dodgson, had risen through the ranks of the church to become a bishop. His grandfather, another Charles, had been an army captain, killed in action in Ireland in 1803, when his two sons were hardly more than babies. His mother's name was Frances Jane Lutwidge. The elder of these sons yet another Charles was Carroll's father. He reverted to the other family business and took holy orders. He went to Rugby School, and thence to Christ Church, Oxford. He was mathematically gifted and won a double first degree, which could have been the prelude to a brilliant academic career.
monuments of the Germanic literatures. The main stories of the poem (the fights of B.) are versions of common folk-tales, but the poet also introduces many incidental stories, some of which belong to the world of ancient Germanic legend. He writes his folk-tales and legends in a web of other events, mainly set in the Baltic Kingdoms. He shows a very rich and leisurely portrayal of this Baltic world, providing many customs like the close relationship between lord and man in the war-band and others. All this encouraged the supposition that the unknown author of the poem was himself a bard of the ancient type portrayed within the poem (a lord's scoop). However, many people propose that the author could be Christian poet, perhaps a monk, versed not only in old native traditions, but also in the culture and literature of the Latin Church, and whose purpose of writing was highly moral. For example, the fate is
Allston was America's first truly Romantic artist and expressed the themes of mystery, terror and poetic daydreaming. Artists: John Trumbull, John Vanderlyn, Washington Allston. Landscape, Genre and Still Life. In late-C18, these were almost entirely neglected. Guy painted city life, Birch painted the seascape. The "Peale formula" was adhered to: objects along tableware against a dark background. Also, trompe-l'oeil persisted via Charles Willson's Peale's sons. Artists: Ralph Earl, Francis Guy, Thomas Birch, James Peale, Raphaelle Peale. Mid-C19 Landscape. In C19, landscape painting became dominant and provided many unexplored subjects. The tradition of landscape art emerged in the 1820s through the work of the so-called Hudson River School. The school of "luminism" is also distinguished, it is interested in the phenomenon of light. Exemplary artists. Thomas Cole (early-C19). He painted more in the Romantic mold than his
