2 Dying and Surviving in Virginia
HISTORICAL CONTEXT
Historians are detectives, storytellers, and occasionally, mythmakers. As detectives we search for clues about past events, ideas, or people that interest us. Generally, we gather these clues from documents that, by either planning or happenstance, have survived the ravages of time. From a study of these documents—a task that involves discounting some evidence in order to make sense of the whole—we attempt to piece together a meaningful story.
Often the stories we tell provoke interest only among other lovers of history. Some accounts temporarily gain wide popularity but are soon forgotten. On rare occasions, however, narratives of the past (or more likely, retold, simplified versions of an original tale) evoke broad, enduring emotional responses. These accounts are passed forward from generation to generation and become ingrained in the collective memory of a people. Citizens who fail to understand them are considered alien or culturally illiterate. At some point these enduring stories may transcend history and enter the realm of “myth.” In labeling a story a myth, we are not implying that it is necessarily untrue. Rather, we simply mean that the story has become a traditional tale, shared by all members of a community, that purports to explain the origins, customs, and institutions of a people.
The early history of Virginia has become an American myth. Most of us can recall stories about Jamestown, the first permanent English colony in America. We can recite tales learned in childhood about Captain John Smith, the savior of the colony, who transformed the lazy colonists into hardened work crews. We remember the man, if not the name, of Powhatan, the powerful Algonquian chief who shared the secret of growing corn with the early colonists. And we remember Pocahontas, the Algonquian princess who pleaded with her father to spare the life of John Smith, and who later married the Englishman John Rolfe and converted to his Christian religion.
Augmenting these real-life adventures of daring individuals is the inspirational collective history of the colony. Established as a business enterprise, early Jamestown was the property of Virginia Company stockholders who risked their personal assets in pursuit of profit. While their original plan to find gold failed, the stockholders learned from their mistakes, altered their policies, and prepared the way for future investors to extract great wealth from Virginia’s plentiful tobacco harvests. Moreover, in 1619, the company instituted the House of Burgesses in Virginia and thereby planted in American soil the seed of democratic government. Altogether, the colony of Jamestown overcame early setbacks, survived, and left a grand legacy for the American people. More than simply England’s first permanent colony in the New World, Jamestown has become for many a symbol of American achievement. It was a place where courageous and enterprising individuals overcame ...

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
