SST Class 10. Rise of nationalism in Europe.
The document discusses the rise of nationalism in Europe from the late 18th century to the late 19th century. It describes how the French Revolution of 1789 established the idea of the nation-state and national sovereignty. In the 1800s, Napoleon spread French reforms across Europe, establishing administrative divisions and legal codes. Nationalist sentiments grew among the middle class who sought representative governments. By the late 1800s, Germany and Italy were unified as nation-states, though nationalism had taken on more conservative and intolerant forms being used to promote state power and imperialism.
Genocide
The document discusses genocide, specifically the Holocaust carried out by Nazi Germany between 1938 and 1945. It defines genocide and provides context for famous genocides. It describes how the Nazis targeted Jews and others like Romani people, Slavs, disabled people and political opponents. Over 6 million Jews and 11 million people total were killed through gas chambers, medical experiments, starvation and execution. Concentration and extermination camps were established where most of the systematic killings took place. The Holocaust is an important reminder of the dangers of hatred, tyranny and oppression.
20 century art chapter 14
The document provides an overview of major artistic movements and developments throughout the 20th century. It discusses Expressionism, Cubism, Futurism, Dadaism, Surrealism, and other 'isms' that emerged after World War 1 and how they reflected the social and political upheavals of the time through new styles and techniques. It also profiles influential artists like Picasso, Duchamp, Kandinsky, and others who pioneered abstract and conceptual art.
11.1 culture of the roaring twenties 1920-1929
The document discusses various aspects of social, economic, and political life in the United States during the 1920s, including the economic boom following WWI, rise of radical politics, passage of restrictive immigration laws, Prohibition and rise of organized crime, Scopes "Monkey" Trial, growth of consumerism fueled by mass production and advertising, and new technologies emerging during the decade. Fears of communism and xenophobia led to suppression of civil liberties and discrimination against immigrants and political radicals. The period was one of social change, economic growth, and cultural transformation in American society.
1920s
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function.

Tuberculosis (TB) has affected humans for millennia and has been one of the greatest plagues in history, killing over 100 million people in the last century alone. Significant advances in understanding and treating TB have been made over the past 200 years, including the discovery of the bacteria that causes TB by Robert Koch in 1882, the development of antibiotics and drug regimens in the 1940s-1950s, and the World Health Organization's Directly Observed Treatment, Short-course strategy in the 1990s which helped lower global TB rates. However, TB remains a major global health problem and the WHO aims to continue efforts to further reduce the worldwide burden of the disease.
Introduction with a few glances from history - opening words for the seminar_eng
This document provides a summary of the history of tuberculosis (TB) from ancient times to the present. It discusses how TB was initially viewed as a mysterious disease caused by demons or constitutional factors. The discovery of the TB bacterium in 1882 led to its identification as an infectious disease. Sanatoriums and improved social conditions helped reduce TB in the early 20th century. However, the disease has resurged globally since the 1980s due to factors like poverty, HIV/AIDS, and antibiotic resistance. The document reflects on personal experiences with TB and treatments over time.

Social Change After World War I
Radio was an early example of mass media, linking people over long distances. Here, an invalid woman uses radio to keep in touch with events in the outside world.
The catastrophe of World War I shattered the sense of optimism that had grown in the West since the Enlightenment. Despair gripped survivors on both sides as they added up the staggering costs of the war. Europeans mourned a generation of young men who had been lost on the battlefields.
Many people talked about a “return to normalcy,” to life as it had been before 1914. But rebellious young people rejected the moral values and rules of the Victorian Age and chased after excitement. Gertrude Stein, an American writer living in Paris, called them the “lost generation.” Others saw them as immoral pleasure-seekers.
The Roaring Twenties During the 1920s, new technologies helped create a mass culture shared by millions in the world’s developed countries. Affordable cars, improved telephones, and new forms of media such as motion pictures and radio brought people around the world closer together than ever before.
Duke Ellington was a composer, pianist, and bandleader. He referred to his music as "American Music" rather than "jazz." His career spanned the 1920s to the 1970s.
In the 1920s, many radios tuned into the new sounds of jazz. In fact, the decade in the West is often called the Jazz Age. African American musicians combined Western harmonies with African rhythms to create jazz. Jazz musicians, like trumpeter Louis Armstrong and pianist Duke Ellington, took simple melodies and improvised endless subtle variations in rhythm and beat.
Throughout the 1920s, the popularity of jazz moved from the United States to Europe. Europeans embraced American popular culture, with its greater freedom and willingness to experiment. The nightclub and jazz were symbols of that freedom. Jazz came to embody the universal themes of creativity and self-expression.
Much of today’s popular music has been influenced by jazz. It has transcended the "Roaring Twenties" American culture to become an international musical language.
After the war, rebellious young people, disillusioned by the war, rejected the moral values and rules of the Victorian Age and chased after excitement. During the Jazz Age, this rebellion was exemplified by a new type of liberated young woman called the flapper. The first flappers were American, but their European sisters soon adopted the fashion. Flappers rejected old ways in favor of new, exciting freedoms.
The Flapper awoke from her lethargy (tiredness) ... bobbed her hair, put on her choicest pair of earrings and a great deal of audacity (boldness) and rouge and went into battle. She flirted because it was fun to flirt and ... refused to be bored chiefly because she wasn't boring ... Mothers disapproved of their sons taking the Flapper to dances, to teas, to swim, and most of all to heart.
—Zelda Fitzgerald, flapper and wife of author F. Scott Fitzge.
1930s
The 1930s saw the Great Depression take hold after the 1929 Wall Street Crash, with unemployment reaching 3 million in Britain by 1932 and contributing to the rise of the Nazi party in Germany under Hitler. New terminology emerged reflecting the political changes in Germany including references to the Brownshirts, Gestapo, and Third Reich, as well as concepts of Aryan and the title of Führer. Culturally, the 1930s saw the rise of new dances like the Jive and Conga and the beginning of public television broadcasts, while scientific discoveries included mesons, neutrinos and positrons, and new terms like electron microscope and test tube baby entered the lexicon.
The Industrial Revolution (simple)
The document summarizes the key events and impacts of the Industrial Revolution that began in England in the late 1700s and eventually spread to other parts of Europe and North America. Some key factors that contributed to the Industrial Revolution in England included new farming techniques, the enclosure movement, population growth, and innovations in technology like James Watt's steam engine. The Industrial Revolution led to rapid urbanization, changing social classes and living conditions, as well as new beliefs and ideologies. It brought about advances in fields like science, healthcare, and the arts. As the revolution spread, new technologies continued to be developed and the world economy became increasingly globalized and industrialized.
