John Marshall's precedent-setting decisions as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court established the Court as an independent and equal branch of government. His rulings in key cases like Marbury v. Madison established the doctrine of judicial review, allowing the Court to strike down laws it viewed as unconstitutional. In McCulloch v. Maryland, he affirmed the doctrine of implied powers, granting Congress broad authority under the necessary and proper clause. These rulings enhanced the power and authority of both the federal government and the Supreme Court within the new constitutional system.

His 121 chapter 1 outline e companion (5)David Harbin
This document provides an outline for a chapter that will discuss the history of various peoples from around the world prior to significant contact between Europeans, Native Americans, and Africans in the Americas. The outline is divided into multiple sections that will cover: the Cherokee creation myth; early North American, Mesoamerican, South American, West African, and traditional European cultures prior to 1500; transformations within Europe from 1400-1600 including the rise of nation-states, Renaissance, and Reformation; European exploration led by the Portuguese, Columbus, Spanish conquistadors, and others from 1420-1600; and the effects of contact between native, African, and European peoples including disease epidemics, the slave trade, and cultural
Before European contact, native populations across North America developed diverse social, political, and economic structures adapted to their environments. Some groups, like the Maya, Aztecs, and Incas, formed large empires with advanced agricultural systems, while others like those in North America lived in smaller, nomadic societies relying on hunting and gathering. Beginning in the 15th century, Europeans began exploring and colonizing, seeking wealth, trade, and empire. Spain claimed much of North and South America and forced native populations into oppressive systems like encomiendas, dramatically reducing their numbers through violence and disease. Debates emerged around how to classify and treat indigenous peoples.

The document provides an overview of the peopling and early history of North America. It describes how the continents were once joined in a supercontinent called Pangaea before drifting apart. Various groups migrated across a land bridge between Asia and North America around 35,000 years ago to populate the Americas. Corn was domesticated in Mexico around 5,000 BC, allowing for settled farming communities and the rise of early civilizations like the Aztecs, Mayans, and Incas. Europeans began exploring and colonizing the Americas around 500 years ago, bringing both old and new world plants, animals, and diseases, radically transforming the populations and environments of both regions.
In 1492, Europe was made up of many small states uniting into new kingdoms. Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain sponsored Columbus' voyage to the Americas, hoping to spread Catholicism and find new trade routes. China was struggling with bureaucracy and defending against northern invaders, while the Muslim Ottoman Empire dominated North Africa and Western Asia. In the Americas, advanced civilizations like the Aztecs, Incas and Mayans controlled much of the territory, relying on agriculture and trade but lacking technology like firearms that would be introduced by European colonizers.

This document provides 8 essay questions for a 3-part exam on early American history covering chapters 1-4 of the textbook. The questions assess understanding of key themes like differences between Indian and European societies, diversity of Native American cultures, Spain's justification for conquest in the Americas, definitions of freedom for various groups, reasons for conflicts between English colonists and Native Americans, distinctions between natural and moral liberty, comparisons of the Chesapeake and New England colonies, and impacts of the Enlightenment and Great Awakening on revolutionary thinking. Students must choose 1 question for each part and write a response of over 300 words not including direct quotes.
This document discusses evangelical Christianity and how it related to colonialism in Africa. It defines key terms like "civilization" and "modernity" and how they were used to justify white supremacy and oppression of black Africans during the colonial era. However, it also discusses how Africans incorporated local customs into Christianity in response to missionary efforts, adapting the religion to their own cultures rather than fully adopting western ideologies. The document provides historical context on how medicine and religion were used as tools of colonialism but also influenced African cultures.
This document discusses the origins and development of modern anthropology. It focuses on the work of early anthropologists like Franz Boas who pioneered the concept of cultural relativism. Boas rejected the idea that cultures evolve in linear stages, arguing instead that each culture must be understood on its own terms rather than in comparison to others. He established anthropology as a scientific, professional field of study based on long-term fieldwork and helped shape the discipline's anti-racist, humanistic traditions. The document also examines how anthropology has changed since colonial times, with the rise of national anthropologies and a more globalized approach.
1. Prior to European contact in the 15th century, the Americas were home to diverse indigenous cultures, but European arrival irrevocably changed these cultures and connected the Americas to global changes.
2. The geography of Europe, Africa, and the Americas impacted how technology developed in each region and drove European exploration across oceans.
3. Multiple social, political, religious, intellectual, and economic factors in 15th-16th century Europe, including developments like the Renaissance, contributed to the Age of Discovery and changing global connections through colonization and slave trade networks.

The document discusses the rise of totalitarianism in interwar Europe through examining the rise of Adolf Hitler in Germany and Benito Mussolini in Italy. It describes how both leaders capitalized on economic hardship and political instability in their countries to consolidate power. Hitler rose to power through legal means by being appointed chancellor by Hindenburg in 1933, after which he eliminated political opposition and declared himself Führer and dictator in 1934. Mussolini founded the fascist movement in Italy and came to power in 1922 through a march on Rome, after which he established a dictatorship.
Impressionism was an art movement that began in France in the 1860s-1880s. Impressionist paintings depicted everyday subjects and the effects of light on scenes using visible brush strokes. Major Impressionist artists included Monet, Manet, Renoir, Pissarro, and Degas. They painted outdoor scenes of modern life. Post-Impressionism developed after the 1880s, rejecting naturalism and fleeting effects. Post-Impressionists like Seurat, Cézanne, Van Gogh, Gauguin, and Toulouse-Lautrec emphasized expression, structure, and form.
The document provides an overview of France during the period known as La Belle Époque from 1870-1914. It summarizes key events such as the Franco-Prussian War, the establishment of the Third French Republic, and the Paris Commune revolt. The summary also describes the political instability of the Third Republic due to rivalry between monarchists and republicans. It highlights the significance of The Dreyfus Affair as a divisive issue that reflected tensions in French society between anti-clericals/intellectuals and those supporting the military/Catholics. Finally, it characterizes the bourgeois lifestyle during La Belle Époque and the bohemian counterculture that challenged mainstream values.
Victorian England was characterized by a constitutional monarchy under Queen Victoria from 1837-1901. This era saw the realignment of the two major political parties, with the Conservatives led by Benjamin Disraeli and the Liberals led by William Gladstone. A key issue was managing unrest in Ireland related to the Irish Potato Famine from 1845-1852 and calls for home rule. Victorian society emphasized moral standards and proper etiquette, especially for women, with Queen Victoria herself seen as representing virtue and domesticity.
In late 19th century England, women had limited roles focused on family and homemaking. Some women advocated for greater social and political equality through the women's suffrage movement. Suffragettes like Emmeline Pankhurst used militant tactics like hunger strikes, arson, and chaining themselves to objects to draw attention to their cause. The Representation of the People Act of 1918 granted some women over 30 the right to vote, with all women over 21 gaining the right in 1928, achieving women's suffrage in Britain.
The Crimean War (1853-1856) pitted Russia against an alliance of the Ottoman Empire, France, Britain and Sardinia. It arose from religious and territorial disputes in the Holy Land and the Balkans and Russia's desire for a warm water port. It was a war of firsts, introducing new technologies of warfare as well as journalism and photography. It ended with Russia's defeat in the Treaty of Paris, weakening Russian influence. The war destabilized Europe for 25 years by shattering the Concert of Europe.
The document provides an overview of political developments in Europe following the Napoleonic Wars and Congress of Vienna from 1814 to 1815. It discusses the goals of Klemens von Metternich to restore monarchies, contain France, and establish a balance of power. It then outlines several political revolts in the 1820s across Europe challenging this system. It also summarizes the French Revolutions of 1830 and 1848 that established constitutional monarchies and republican governments respectively. Finally, it introduces some of the major ideological movements ("isms") of the 19th century that emerged in response to industrialization and social changes.
This document provides a list of 44 works of art and architectural structures from the Romantic era along with their artists or architects.

Enlightened despots applied Enlightenment concepts like rationalization of economic structures and liberation of thought to their territories. They tended to allow religious toleration, freedom of speech and press, and private property rights. However, their reforms were often resisted and not fully implemented due to opposition from nobles. Three prominent enlightened despots discussed are Frederick the Great of Prussia, Joseph II of Austria, and Catherine the Great of Russia, who pursued various economic, social, and educational reforms with mixed success.
During the Enlightenment period, some philosophers began supporting greater equality and rights for women, though views still largely emphasized women's inferiority and role as mothers and wives. Mary Wollstonecraft was a notable exception, arguing in her 1792 book A Vindication of the Rights of Women that women were equal to men in their rational capacities and deserved the same access to education, challenging views put forward by philosophers like Rousseau. However, most Enlightenment writings, like the Encyclopedia, continued emphasizing women's physical and intellectual weaknesses. Salons run by women provided an acceptable social space for women's education and participation in intellectual discussion.
The Enlightenment saw the development of new political and philosophical ideas centered around three key themes: property, rights, and the rule of law. Major thinkers like Locke, Montesquieu, and Rousseau advocated for concepts like natural rights, the social contract, separation of powers, and direct democracy to guarantee individual freedoms and limit authoritarian rule. Other Enlightenment philosophers such as Condorcet, Kant, Diderot, and Voltaire applied reason to topics like universal happiness, the structure of knowledge, and defending liberties like freedom of speech.
The document summarizes aspects of 18th century European society including agriculture, industry, demographics, family life, and the Enlightenment period. It describes:
1) Agricultural improvements like eliminating fallow fields, new scientific methods, and technological advances that increased food production.
2) The rise of rural industry as population growth led to more workers without land taking jobs in cottage industries and putting-out systems.
3) Key aspects of Enlightenment thought including applying reason to religion and society, tolerance of beliefs, and using education to spread ideas through a growing print culture and rise in literacy.
The War of Austrian Succession was sparked in 1740 when Maria Theresa succeeded her father Charles VI as ruler of the Hapsburg empire, despite the Pragmatic Sanction that ensured her succession. Frederick II of Prussia invaded and took the wealthy territory of Silesia from Austria, starting the war. Over the following years, various European powers including France, Bavaria, Saxony, Britain, and eventually Russia allied with either Austria or Prussia and the borders of Central Europe were reshaped through several treaties. The 1748 Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle ended the war by confirming Prussian control of Silesia and making it a new European power, while Austria maintained the Prag
The Scientific Revolution represented a major change in views of the physical universe that began in the 17th century. Prior medieval science was based on reasoning and tradition rather than experimentation. The Scientific Revolution established new principles of science based on questioning old assumptions, empirical evidence through experimentation and observation, and reason over religious dogma. Major developments included Copernicus establishing a heliocentric model of the solar system, Kepler's laws of planetary motion, Galileo's astronomical observations with the telescope, and Newton's formulation of universal gravitation and the laws of motion.

Le Château de Versailles is a massive palace located outside Paris that was home to the royal French court under King Louis XIV. The sprawling 2,000 acre grounds include 12 miles of roads and over 200,000 trees, with the palace itself containing over 700 rooms, 67 staircases, and housing thousands of paintings, sculptures, and other artworks and furnishings. Louis XIV moved the French royal court and government to Versailles in order to exert more control over the nobility and distance himself from the populace in Paris, requiring members of the nobility to reside at the palace for parts of the year and adhere to its strict rules of etiquette.
The document discusses the transition from absolutism to constitutionalism in England. It describes how James I and Charles I ruled as absolute monarchs and clashed with Parliament over money and religion. This led to the English Civil War between Royalists and Parliamentarians. Oliver Cromwell emerged victorious and established a Puritan republic. After Cromwell's death, the monarchy was restored but tensions remained over succession and religion. This ultimately led to the Glorious Revolution and the arrival of the Protestant William and Mary, who agreed to a constitutional monarchy that limited royal power and affirmed rights like habeas corpus.
Baroque art developed in the early 17th century in Rome as a reaction to the perceived perfection of Renaissance art. It later spread across Europe, with each country adding its own style. A key characteristic was the use of light and shadow to elicit an emotional response from viewers. Major patrons included wealthy individuals and merchants seeking art for their homes. The movement emphasized dynamism and emotion over rationality. The two main branches were Catholic Baroque in countries like Italy and Flanders, featuring huge religious works, and Protestant Baroque in Holland and England, which focused more on landscapes, still lifes and portraits with little religious content.
