The document discusses various push factors that led to large-scale emigration from the Scottish Highlands between the 1800s-1900s. It identifies overpopulation and subdivision of farmland as causing farms to be too small to support families. Farming was difficult due to poor soil quality and harsh climate. The potato famine further exacerbated food insecurity. Alternative industries like kelp and fishing collapsed leaving few jobs. Highlanders suffered from poverty, poor housing conditions, and isolation. Finally, the Highland Clearances forced many from their homes so the land could be used for more profitable sheep farming and hunting, with some forcibly evicted and their homes burned.

Halloween was first celebrated in France in the 1980s only within English communities, but it didn't become widely known until the early 1990s. In 1992, a costume company marketed products to establish Halloween in France, but 1997 saw major marketing campaigns from American companies like Disney, Coca-Cola, and McDonald's that helped popularize the holiday. While young people in France celebrate Halloween with costume parties, the traditions remain more focused on "scary" costumes rather than themes popular in the US and UK. However, Halloween in France is also controversial as it distracts from traditional French observances in late October and early November that honor the dead in cemeteries and religious services.

World His Ch 5 1

During his reign, Spain experienced its Golden Age of art and literature as exemplified by painters El Greco and Diego Velazquez as well as author Miguel de Cervantes' novel Don Quixote. However, inflation from a growing population and dropping silver values led to tax increases that overburdened the people and eventually weakened the once mighty Spanish Empire.

Great Britain has a long history of immigration that has influenced its culture and economy. People immigrate for reasons such as its tolerant multicultural society, strong job market and education system, and universal healthcare. Key immigrant groups through history include Celts, Romans, Anglo-Saxons, Vikings, Normans, and more recently commonwealth citizens filling labor shortages. Today Britain continues to attract immigrants globally to fill professional job openings.
Black history month
Black History Month is celebrated in February in the United States and Canada to recognize the important contributions that African Americans have made to society. It has its origins in "Negro History Week", which was created in 1926 by historian Carter G. Woodson and the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History. In the late 1960s, as the Civil Rights Movement brought increased attention to African American history and culture, various state and local governments issued proclamations declaring February to be Black History Month. It is now recognized nationally in the United States and internationally.
The Paralysis Of Eveline
Eveline faces a difficult decision - whether to stay in Dublin and care for her home as promised to her deceased mother, or leave with her lover Frank to start a new life in Buenos Aires. As she sits remembering her childhood and family life, Eveline realizes that staying would mean continuing her repetitive duties around the home with little change, just as the dust in the home never changes no matter how much she cleans. Though her father is not always cruel, the memories and promise to her mother weigh heavily on her and ultimately lead Eveline to choose paralysis over embarking on a new phase of life with Frank.
British society
1. Britain has seen immigration from many groups over the centuries, from Celts in the 1st century AD to Europeans in the modern era.
2. The Romans ruled Britain from the 1st-5th centuries AD and brought engineering skills and infrastructure like roads, baths, and heating systems.
3. Subsequent immigrant groups like the Anglo-Saxons, Vikings, and Normans all contributed new cultural aspects like language, literature, and legal systems.
Stereotype lesson2
This document outlines lesson plans for an ESL conversation class about stereotypes. It includes tasks for students to discuss stereotypes about different countries, build vocabulary, and read and discuss a text about stereotypes about Britain. The text lists 10 stereotypes about Britain, indicating whether they are true or false, and provides explanations and evidence for each. Some stereotypes, such as Britons loving tea and queueing, and being obsessed with the Royal family, are deemed true, while others, such as everyone being related to the Royal family and it raining every day, are deemed false.
Chapter 3 identity edited
National identity in Britain is constructed through shared history, language, culture and ethnicity. Scottish, Welsh and Irish people living in England may feel a strong loyalty to their ancestral home nations. In Scotland, aspects of public life like education, law and religion are organized separately, and Scots dialect and symbols of Scottishness provide constant reminders of distinct Scottish identity. Welsh identity is weaker, as public life resembles England's and fewer symbols of Welshness exist. Most English people conflate English and British identities. Class identity also plays a strong role in Britain, as class differences persist through the flexibility of the class system and impact daily habits, interests and behaviors that divide social classes.
British culture
The document discusses British culture, providing definitions of English and British identities. It describes the history of Britain from the Stone Age through periods of Roman, Anglo-Saxon, Viking, Norman, Tudor, Victorian and 20th century rule. Key aspects of these eras are outlined, including their influences on language, religion, daily life and political structures in Britain. Famous British leaders and important cultural aspects are also mentioned.
Challenges of a multicultural society review/revision
The document discusses the multicultural nature of British society by examining different waves of migration to the UK over the past century. It notes the arrival of Jewish settlers in the 18th century fleeing persecution, Irish migrants escaping poverty, and post-WW2 immigrants from former British colonies helping to address UK labor shortages. More recent migration has stemmed from EU expansion under the Maastricht Treaty, providing skilled workers, as well as refugees fleeing conflicts in places like the Middle East, Afghanistan and Syria. A variety of factors including economic needs, global conflicts, and persecution have contributed to the UK becoming a multicultural society through immigration.
Ten Pound Poms
- The "Ten Pound Poms" policy began in 1947 to encourage white British citizens to migrate to Australia to populate the country after World War 2 and address labor shortages. Over 1 million people took advantage of the scheme where passage only cost £10.
- Many migrants found the reality in Australia differed from expectations. Some faced discrimination or difficulty finding work and housing as promised by sponsors. While jobs and pay were better than the UK, 25% ultimately returned home due to isolation or family responsibilities.
- By the 1960s, 600,000 Britons had migrated through both the £10 passage program and other means. While some prospered, the scheme highlighted cultural challenges of integration and was ended in 1982.
