The Importance Of The English Revolution And The American...
English history played a major role in the American Revolution by introducing new and revolutionary ideas to the public. Several events, such as the
English Revolution and the restoration of the monarchy also influenced the mindset during the war. The successful overthrow of Charles I and the
attempted establishment of an English republic probably inspired many colonists to fight against King George III's tyranny. Enlightenment ideals such
as social contract and basic rights also influenced the war. The colonists felt that King George III was violating their right to privacy, assembly, and
speech. Therefore, the colonists had the right to revolt because the government was failing its main purpose according to social contract. British tax and
economic policies such as the Stamp Act, Townshend Act, Sugar Act, and the Navigation Acts angered colonists. They believed the Parliament had no
right to impose these taxes and laws on them because the colonists weren't represented in government. As a result, several Sons of Liberty members,
disguised as Native Americans, boarded a British cargo ship and dumped tea into the Boston Harbor as protest. Angered by the act, Parliament passed
the Intolerable Acts (Coercive Acts), punishing the Bostonians for the Boston Tea Party by blockading the Boston Harbor until restitution was made
for the tea. The colonists also resented the Navigation Acts, which effectively created a British trading monopoly. Cheap items were often highly taxed,

John K, Thornton's 'African Dimension Of The Stono Rebellion'
On September 9, 1739, the Stono Rebellion took place in the colony of South Carolina. The slaves, lead by an Angolan named Jemmy, stunned the
plantation owners in their revolt against their oppressive lifestyle. Their goal was to march all the way to Spanish Florida, but they were eventually
stopped by the militia. In total, about 60 white civilians were killed and many more slaves experienced the same fate. This was such a significant
uprising, not only because of the lack of information we have about rebellions in general, but because it showed that slaves had the ability to revolt
against the harsh lifestyle that was forced upon them. While most historians can agree that this was one of the most influential revolts, the best way to
interpret this event is still debated. Some historians, like William Stephen, hone in on the aspect of competition in his piece "Spanish Designs and
Slave Resistance". While other look at specific factors. For example, John K, Thornton sees that the best way to view the Stono Rebellion is to look at
the African background of slaves in his essay, "African Dimension of the Stono Rebellion". Edward A Pearson, for example, asserts gender is the way
to comprehend this revolt in his essay "Rebelling As Men". All of these historians address important factors of the Stono Rebellion, however in order to

The Major Causes Of The Agricultural Revolution
The Agricultural Revolution began as an idea of how to organize fields known as the enclosure system to substantially produce food. Because of their
colonies in the Americas, the British thrived on new types of food brought from across the Pacific. Additionally, new technologies such as the ****
furthered the productivity of food production. After the influx of new machinery, food types, and theenclosure system, Great Britain was able to provide
more food for its people which both increased the population while the amount of labor decreased and lowered the cost of food.
A major effect of the Agricultural Revolution was the cultivation of more food and how the cost of food lowered. This is due to the way in which
the cost of food went down. After this increase of spending money, people of all classes in Europe were able to afford finer things, such as clothing
which is particularly accentuated in document 7. The statistics in Document 2 depict an increase of the amount of food and productivity of fields in
Britain particularly from 1650–1850. The Agricultural Revolution lasted from the mid–sixteenth to late eighteenth century, supporting the statistics.
Clearly, the amount of money acquired from producing food increased significantly and for a longer period of time, proving that there was a larger
amount of food. In document 3, and author named Arthur Young described in detail the number of potatoes and other types of food being grown in

Seventeenth–century England endured a pair of tense struggles for political power that had a profound impact on the philosophers of the English
Enlightenment. The first power struggle came in 1649, when the English Civil War resulted in the execution of King Charles I and the establishment
of a commonwealth under Oliver Cromwell. Although this republic endured for a decade, it also essentially devolved into dictatorship, and England
ended up reverting to monarchy with the restoration of Charles II to the throne. The Glorious Revolution: The reestablished monarchy had clear limits

The Nature Of Thomas Hobbes And The English Civil Revolution
Thomas Hobbes was the more established of the two brothers being conceived in 1588 in Malmesbury, in Wiltshire, England. Ahead of schedule in
the seventeenth century, Hobbes went to learn at Oxford, graduating in 1608. After graduation, Hobbes started filling in as a coach for the Cavendish
family, mentoring the future Earl of Devonshire. In spite of the fact that he kept on working for the Cavendish family discontinuously for whatever
remains of his life, Hobbes likewise made a few voyages to Europe to learn and work with his philosophical associates, including Galileo, Mersenne,
and RenГ© Descartes.
Hobbes' perspective of human instinct was formed to a great extent by the English Civil War, which occurred from 1642 to 1649 and finished in the
decapitation of King Charles I. Hobbes considered the following riotous interregnum time frame, from 1649 to 1660, to be as near that fundamental
condition of nature as people could get. Considering the exceptionally useless nature of English government amid that time, Hobbes' perspectives
should come as meager astonishment.
As a result of Hobbes' critical perspective of human instinct, he trusted the main type of government sufficiently solid to keep mankind's brutal driving
forces within proper limits was outright government, where a ruler employed incomparable and unchecked control over his subjects. While Hobbes had

The ability to look at the past and its developments is invaluable to see the developments play out and see how progress is a limited ideal. The past
might be crystallized now in textbooks, but the people of the past did not have the future at their grasp to evaluate. The abridgement between time
periods and movements are not times that we can consider as straight forward progressions, but times in their own right and merit. The luxury of
looking back into the past is a convenience that allows the historian, student, or teacher to read into the times, but that convenience also draws lines
where causes and effects were not as simple. The "tendency to patch the new research into the old story even when the research in detail has altered
the bearings of the whole subject" is an effect of the convenience and discredits the past with comparisons to the present. The past is also held to a
standard that keeps the present wondering on how this preceded it. When studying the past it is desirable to see one's time as superior and one that is
pioneering the mantle of progress, but this is not so when the direction that follows is not a desired one such as Snow's description of the sciences

The Consequences Of The English Industrial Revolution
An Industrial Revolution is when a society goes from using tools or making products by hand, to using new sources of energy, such as coal, to
power machines in factories. The consequences of the English Industrial Revolution greatly outweighed the benefits. Factories were dangerous
and detrimental to the environment, workers were treated inhumanely, and living conditions were unbearable due to urbanization. Factories were
unsafe for workers and led to high levels of pollution. They were filled with dust which led to health problems in workers, and "the coolest part of
the ironworks was 130 degrees fahrenheit" (web.bcp.org). Workers were cut, bruised, and killed because of uncovered machine shafts. In Joseph
Hebergram's testimony to the Sadler Committee, he shares a memory from his time as a child worker: "Hebergam: 'At the L____ Mill where I

other local officials for their own personal gain as they sometimes stole tax money along with other things. This war ended with the rebels winning

creative project, we must consistently set goals and to be a critical thinker by asking questions. Unfortunately, some obstacles prevent us from living
our life on our terms. Dependency and legitimacy are why others have authority over us; however, once we are forced or reasoned to do something, be
someone, etc. they lose that power, and that's the time that we must take action. We are consistently ruled by others and the "norms" that society

Revolutions, whether successful or not, inevitably change the place in which they happen. In the early 20th century, nearly all of Africa was colonized
by European powers. Colonialism, and Africans' ill feelings toward being colonized, inspired unity, desire for social change, and an urge for
independence. Revolutions were imminent in Africa due to the strict policies of segregation, social structure, and feelings of superiority that the
Europeans brought. These feelings were ingrained in many people both consciously and sub–consciously. Many Africans, after independence, fell back
into this old routine and when the white populations left, these feelings of superiority and the old social structure continued to manifest itself Africa,
only in a new form. This was, and continues to be Africa's biggest problem today. The goal ofrevolution, and independence in Africa was to purge the
negative western influences and attitudes that Europeans had put in place. However, even after independence, the same European powers, and their

Differences Between Iranian Revolution And English Civil War

Although occurring at very different times throughout history, looking back today the Iranian Revolution and English Civil War were very much alike.
Both revolutions had a lot to do with the leaders of the time and both immediately resulted in turmoil. The Iranian revolution and English Civil war had
similar causes however the English Civil War was more successful in ensuring lasting democracy.
Firstly, Mohammed Reza Shah Pahlavi was the extremely isolated leader of Iran who was extremely concerned, by any means necessary, with
consolidating his power. Not only did the Shah completely remove himself from the suffering society and ignore the injustice surrounding him but
he ruled with absolute power meaning that everyone else had little say in government, if any at all. The Shah also created a force known as the
SAVAK, and it was largely and widely feared by those who opposed the regime as it was known for extreme surveillance, torture and even
execution. Mohammed Reza Shah completely overlooked the fact that up to 70%of Iran's population of 20 million was living in poverty without
basic liberties and at the mercy of their landlords. This evidence proves that the needs of the Iranian people were not being met which in many cases,

government. The events that led up to the English Revolution began largely after the death of Queen Elizabeth I, marking the end of the Tudor
dynasty in 1603. James I was crowned king, and the Stuart dynasty began. James, unlike his predecessor, believed in divine right of kings, a concept
that said kings were chosen for the position by God and were all–powerful. This is a concept opposite to that of popular sovereignty, in which the
power of government was given and sustained by the people, rather than god. This created a rift ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Dissension among Parliament and the people of England was increased by the fact that James was strongly devoted to the Church of England, which
displeased the Puritans, who wished to make the church more Protestant. Because the lower house of Parliament was composed primarily of
Puritans, the new king was not popular with most of the members of Parliament. At one point, Parliament passed a law stating that citizens could not
be taxed without Parliament's permission, which limited the king's power. James, who believed in the divine right of kings, was displeased by this.
He believed that, as a man chosen by god to be a supreme ruler, he should not follow laws, and did not believe in the concept of constitutionalism.
Constitutionalism is a concept that says all rulers must obey laws, regardless of standing. Henry I, son of James, further displeased the Puritans by
attempting to force ritual on the Church of England, making it seem more Catholic. The Puritans believed Henry to be an enemy of liberty,
particularly religious liberty, as he was trying to take away their religious

The And Of The Family
One of the first institutions that God created was the family. The family is the backbone of every society, and the strength of any people will be
determined by the strength of their homes. In this day and age, it is important to have families that will strive to honor and glorify God. The need for
this can be seen in the state of this present world. So many are lives are being destroyed by sin, evil, corruption, and Satan; almost every time, these
problems stem back to trouble in home. Without a doubt, present–day families are struggling to find peace, balance, and harmony.
Why is this so often the case? The answer is plain and simple: families have left God's biblical pattern for the home. As time goes on, people begin to
drift further and further from God's original intent for the family. Now, our society not only accepts homosexuality as an acceptable and legal union,
but it now also recognizes them as parents of children as well! Discipline has all but been done away with. Families have drifted so far from God's
purpose, and it is no wonder why they are having such a hard time building up another generation. The cycle needs to be broken before its failure
becomes too overwhelming.
The first and most important guideline for any family is that it ought to be firmly grounded in the Word of God. TheBible ought to be the foundation for
any institution, but, especially, it should be the foundation of the home. Within its pages, the answer to all of life's questions can

First English Parliament During The Industrial Revolution
7)Parliament comes into being (Jan. 20, 1265) After his victory at the Battle of Lewes over Henry III, De Montfort seized power in England. Even
though he was in control, De Montfort's grip on the country was threatened. He summoned the barons and the county knights, along with burgesses
from major towns to join him January 20th in an attempt to gain more support. This was called De Montfort's Parliament. They discussed reforms and
were able to temporarily stabilize de Montfort's political state. Unfortunately, later that year he was killed at the Battle of Evesham, but his idea of
parliament did not die out. Under reign of Edward I, the idea of inviting both knights and the burgesses to parliament become more popular. By the 14th
century, this became normal and it became known as the House of Commons. This parliament sometimes in referred to as the First English parliament,
and de Montfort is most often deemed the founder of the commons. 8)Industrial Revolution (1760–1850)... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

English Handloom Weavers During The Industrial Revolution

The English factory workers, English handloom weavers, Indian soldiers, and Irish peasants were unable to influence the British government to meet
their needs because the men in the parliament were greedy and selfish lords that didn't care for the poor peasants of the country. They weren't taken

The Irish worked on land that was owned by British landowners. The Irish peasants produced large quantities of wheat for the factories in England.

The show did not impact my view on what a family is because we had similar views on how we raised our family to get all they can out of life. We
do things that make us happy and make me feel good as a person. I value all the time I have with my girls because I never know what might happen to

A New Kind of Revolution
Revolution is a term meaning, a coercive overthrow of government or social order in favor of a new system. Carl N. Degler focuses on the events that
occurred before the American Revolution. Before the American Revolution, colonial Americans were already evolving into their own system, without
really knowing how great of a gap they were widening between themselves and Britain. America had already experienced multiple revolutions before
achieving victory during the Revolutionary War. American colonists grew to be revolutionists that changed the norm for the time period.

How Revolutions Within Europe Over A 500 Year Period
In his book, Charles Tilly seeks to determine the circumstances surrounding revolutions within Europe over a 500–year period. Tilly begins by defining
revolution and then presents his hypothesis that revolutions stem from the state's actions. According to the author, a revolution consists of two parts,
each broken into smaller parts of their own: a revolutionary situation and a revolutionary outcome.
A revolutionary situation will consist of three qualifiers. First, a group, or coalition of groups, puts forward a claim to control of the state. The group
coming forward must have a claim that cannot coexist with the current regime. This qualifier rules out issues between groups such as political parties
that are able to coexist with each other under a basic framework for government. Second, a substantial amount of citizens must give the group support.
If a group steps forward without support from the citizens then the power for that group to enact change is handicapped. Third, the rulers must be either
unable or unwilling to silence the group. The rulers usually face this situation when their military power has weakened or been spread too thin, giving
this definition of revolution a realist edge.
Revolutionary outcomes consist of four parts. Members of either side defecting to the other would be considered a revolutionary outcome as it would
swing state control into the favor of the group receiving the defectors. In addition, either the group coming forward can

The Revolution in the English Textile Industry
The hidden story is like a seed of single cotton, hidden inside its soft fluffiness. The truth is clinged into the historical facts, through books, media, or
other sources, and you have to work it this way and that. It's almost as if the various facts want to hold on to it and keep it hidden. And the history of
cotton is too long and complicate, in a certain way, is the story about of cotton and people in America that found theIndustrial Revolution in America.
Expressing the outstanding development, Karl Marx wrote in 1846 that "without cotton you have no modern industry." For Marx, the relationship
between cotton and slavery was similarly unambiguous: "Without slavery, you have no cotton."(1)
Cotton came to America from England industrial development. Cotton, a shrubby plant, thrives in warm climates just suitable for South regions and
couldn't be grown in the North, because the climate was too cold. (2) Early in the seventeenth century, agriculture in the American South was
dominated by "staples" or money crops – products (tobacco, then rice, indigo, and sugar) that fetched a high price in the marketplaces of Europe;
finally came cotton, the king of them all. (3) By 1860, cotton dominated the American economy. The South exported 66 percent of the world's supply,
and cotton made up more than half of the supply with almost 90 percent of cotton grown in the South. Much of Southern society had become
dependent upon a cotton culture and the institution of slavery. (4)

The English Industrial Revolution Essay
Textile manufacture changed dramatically in the 1700s. Key inventions such as Hargreaves' spinning jenny (1764), Arkwright's water frame (1769),
Crompton's spinning mule (1779) and Cartwright's power loom (1784) reduced human labour by up to a third. Early models of these machines tended
to be unreliable, and some looms were ruined by machine breakers as a statement against the replacement of human labour with machines.
The main centres of textile production in England became Greater Manchester, Lancashire and West Yorkshire. Leeds, for example, boasted around
170 'scribbling machines' (which prepare wool for spinning) by 1786; this had unfortunate consequences for workers, who signed a petition in that year
stating that 'twelve men are thrown out of employ for every single machine used in scribbling'.
By 1830, over half of British exports consisted of cotton textiles. People began to favour the ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

There are many similarities and differences when comparing revolutions. Most of these revolutions fall in around the same time and some had the
same causes/goals. The American, French, and Haitian revolutions all took place in a span of less than 100 years. While these revolutions have much
if common, they also have differences in the effect of these wars. The Americanrevolution started in 1770 when conflict of the citizens and English
broke out. Civilians opposed the English law and they believed that the taxes imposed were unfair to the people. These disagreements led many
citizens to revolt leading to the protests in Boston and the Boston Tea Party. Many people in the colonies dumped crates of tea into the water to prove
a point that these laws and taxes were unfair. Their goals were to have unity throughout the colonies and to be free from English law. After the French
and Indian war, the residents knew they had to do something about these problems. After this war, the Treaty of Paris was signed and the colonies were
officially free from England. Since the English no longer have rule over them, they had to find a new form of government. This was the beginning of

The English Revolution from 1640 to 1660 Although the English Revolution began in 1640, there was discontent and conflict during the Stuart dynasty
which lasted between 1603 and 1640. Between 1603 and 1625 King James I ruled England. He was unsuccessful in unifying Scotland and England,
there was steep religious division between the Church of England, which was "Anglo–Catholic", and the Protestant Nonconformists, political division
between the crown and parliament consistently disagreeing over the constitution, fiscal policy, taxation, religious policy, and foreign policy, and
England's beginning colonization of North America and the Caribbean. In 1625, King James I dies and King Charles succeeds him. King Charles
begins his reign with lack of money, religious disagreement and a European war, the Thirty Years' War which King James I attempted to keep out of.
From 1629 to 1640, King Charles I tries to rule without parliament and raises revenue outside of Parliament through his prerogative powers. This
revenue was mainly through customs taxation, granting monopolies, and "ship money." This not only irritated parliament, but also many of his
subjects. Parliament and the landed elite that it represents see his actions as the exercise of "arbitrary power", a power which threatens their personal
liberties and private property. He adopted a non–Calvinist, ritualistic form of Protestantism that seemed to have similarities to Catholicism. This

Improvements in communication and transportation became apparent in the nineteenth century due to the expansion of the textile, mining and
metallurgy industries. By the middle of the nineteenth century, communication was transformed by the invention of the electronic telegraph and the

canal and road building, as well as the introduction of locomotives and steamboats.
The newly independent United States was the "Pioneer in developing mass–production techniques" (p. 413), which revolutionized industry throughout
the modern world. The assembly line, crafted by Henry Ford, as well as advanced mechanical devices exemplified by the steel industry lead to mass

Influence Of English Culture In The Industrial Revolution
English Culture Throughout the Industrial Revolution With a booming population of nine million, nineteenth–century England experienced intense
growing pains. The Industrial Revolution would not only provide jobs for the vast population and change the economy, but would birth a divided
culture between the wealthy and poor. The injustices present in Victorian culture would inspire literary works and authors like Elizabeth Gaskell,
who would be moved to write novels based on working conditions. Also during this time period, many new acts would be approved by the
constitutional monarchy that would slowly repair the split culture. Through the years of 1811 to 1884, inspired by its constitutional monarchy,
English culture was evinced in the literary work of Elizabeth Gaskell. During the time, England had established a constitutional monarchy. A
constitutional monarchy is a political system in which a monarch acts as an official of a sovereign state with finite powers limited by a "written
(i.e., codified), unwritten (i.e., uncodified) or blended constitution" (Edgecombe par. 1). The monarch is the Head of State and is "to make and pass
legislation" ("The Role of the Monarchy" par. 1). This political system also included a governing party to coincide with the monarch. This body

Comparing The English Civil War And The Glorious Revolution
While John Locke was writing both the Second Treatise of Government and A Letter Concerning Toleration there were two influences that were his

disconnect between the people and the monarchy. The Glorious Revolution was a bloodless war that installed William III and Mary II into power in

He believes that the legislative branch is the most important part of the English government. "Their power, in the utmost bounds of it, is limited to the
public good of society (pg. 746). Where instead of the law makers only making laws to benefit themselves, they should do what is best for the
commonwealth. Locke continues to stay that the legislative's power should come from the commonwealth. "It is true, governments cannot be
supported without great charge, and it is fit every one who enjoys his share of the protection, should pay out of his estate his proportion for the
maintenance of it"(pg. 749). Locke states that if someone partakes in the protection and services of the government, they should pay takes in order to
help the government. This makes sense, if someone reeks the benefits that the government offers them, than we should contribute to the government.

What Caused The English Revolution Essay
For a country to have a functioning government, the members of it, have to agree on the important political issues the country is facing. The English

Rights solved England's key political conflicts. These key political conflicts were who controlled taxes, the guidelines for the Catholic Church and the
rights for the members of Parliament.
The conflict between the king and Parliament over who would control taxes went on for a little more than 400 years, until the English Bill of Rights

  • 2. The Importance Of The English Revolution And The American... English history played a major role in the American Revolution by introducing new and revolutionary ideas to the public. Several events, such as the English Revolution and the restoration of the monarchy also influenced the mindset during the war. The successful overthrow of Charles I and the attempted establishment of an English republic probably inspired many colonists to fight against King George III's tyranny. Enlightenment ideals such as social contract and basic rights also influenced the war. The colonists felt that King George III was violating their right to privacy, assembly, and speech. Therefore, the colonists had the right to revolt because the government was failing its main purpose according to social contract. British tax and economic policies such as the Stamp Act, Townshend Act, Sugar Act, and the Navigation Acts angered colonists. They believed the Parliament had no right to impose these taxes and laws on them because the colonists weren't represented in government. As a result, several Sons of Liberty members, disguised as Native Americans, boarded a British cargo ship and dumped tea into the Boston Harbor as protest. Angered by the act, Parliament passed the Intolerable Acts (Coercive Acts), punishing the Bostonians for the Boston Tea Party by blockading the Boston Harbor until restitution was made for the tea. The colonists also resented the Navigation Acts, which effectively created a British trading monopoly. Cheap items were often highly taxed, ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 3. John K, Thornton's 'African Dimension Of The Stono Rebellion' On September 9, 1739, the Stono Rebellion took place in the colony of South Carolina. The slaves, lead by an Angolan named Jemmy, stunned the plantation owners in their revolt against their oppressive lifestyle. Their goal was to march all the way to Spanish Florida, but they were eventually stopped by the militia. In total, about 60 white civilians were killed and many more slaves experienced the same fate. This was such a significant uprising, not only because of the lack of information we have about rebellions in general, but because it showed that slaves had the ability to revolt against the harsh lifestyle that was forced upon them. While most historians can agree that this was one of the most influential revolts, the best way to interpret this event is still debated. Some historians, like William Stephen, hone in on the aspect of competition in his piece "Spanish Designs and Slave Resistance". While other look at specific factors. For example, John K, Thornton sees that the best way to view the Stono Rebellion is to look at the African background of slaves in his essay, "African Dimension of the Stono Rebellion". Edward A Pearson, for example, asserts gender is the way to comprehend this revolt in his essay "Rebelling As Men". All of these historians address important factors of the Stono Rebellion, however in order to best understand the Stono Rebellion one must consider both gender and African background and how it increased competition between the English and ...

Francis Marion was notoriously known for his use of guerrilla tactics against British troops in South Carolina, something which is presented historically accurate in the film. The Patriot has inspired a new resurgence in research into the American Revolution; raising the public awareness of what has become an almost mythical war, and creates an opportunity for teachers and students to gain a deeper understanding of the era. In some aspects, director Roland Emmerich historically replicated events accurately. The film also accurately portrays why the AmericanRevolution started within the opening sequence of the film; that being the revolt against british taxation without any American representation. "The American Revolution came about, fundamentally, because by 1763 the English–speaking communities on the far side of the Atlantic had matured to an extent that their interests and goals were distinct from those of the ruling classes in the mother country."

  • 7. The Major Causes Of The Agricultural Revolution The Agricultural Revolution began as an idea of how to organize fields known as the enclosure system to substantially produce food. Because of their colonies in the Americas, the British thrived on new types of food brought from across the Pacific. Additionally, new technologies such as the **** furthered the productivity of food production. After the influx of new machinery, food types, and theenclosure system, Great Britain was able to provide more food for its people which both increased the population while the amount of labor decreased and lowered the cost of food. A major effect of the Agricultural Revolution was the cultivation of more food and how the cost of food lowered. This is due to the way in which the cost of food went down. After this increase of spending money, people of all classes in Europe were able to afford finer things, such as clothing which is particularly accentuated in document 7.

In 1690, Locke publishes Essay Concerning Human Understanding and Two Treatises of Government.Thomas Hobbes was a Pessimistic English political philosopher; argued that man in his natural state is selfish and savage and therefore a single absolute ruler is the best form of government.

The first power struggle came in 1649, when the English Civil War resulted in the execution of King Charles I and the establishment of a commonwealth under Oliver Cromwell. Although this republic endured for a decade, it also essentially devolved into dictatorship, and England ended up reverting to monarchy with the restoration of Charles II to the throne.

  • 10. The Nature Of Thomas Hobbes And The English Civil Revolution Thomas Hobbes was the more established of the two brothers being conceived in 1588 in Malmesbury, in Wiltshire, England. Ahead of schedule in the seventeenth century, Hobbes went to learn at Oxford, graduating in 1608. After graduation, Hobbes started filling in as a coach for the Cavendish family, mentoring the future Earl of Devonshire. In spite of the fact that he kept on working for the Cavendish family discontinuously for whatever remains of his life, Hobbes likewise made a few voyages to Europe to learn and work with his philosophical associates, including Galileo, Mersenne, and RenГ© Descartes. Hobbes' perspective of human instinct was formed to a great extent by the English Civil War, which occurred from 1642 to 1649 and finished in the decapitation of King Charles I. Hobbes considered the following riotous interregnum time frame, from 1649 to 1660, to be as near that fundamental condition of nature as people could get. Considering the exceptionally useless nature of English government amid that time, Hobbes' perspectives should come as meager astonishment. As a result of Hobbes' critical perspective of human instinct, he trusted the main type of government sufficiently solid to keep mankind's brutal driving forces within proper limits was outright government, where a ruler employed incomparable and unchecked control over his subjects.

The ability to look at the past and its developments is invaluable to see the developments play out and see how progress is a limited ideal. The past might be crystallized now in textbooks, but the people of the past did not have the future at their grasp to evaluate. The abridgement between time periods and movements are not times that we can consider as straight forward progressions, but times in their own right and merit. The luxury of looking back into the past is a convenience that allows the historian, student, or teacher to read into the times, but that convenience also draws lines where causes and effects were not as simple. The "tendency to patch the new research into the old story even when the research in detail has altered the bearings of the whole subject" is an effect of the convenience and discredits the past with comparisons to the present. The past is also held to a standard that keeps the present wondering on how this preceded it. When studying the past it is desirable to see one's time as superior and one that is pioneering the mantle of progress, but this is not so when the direction that follows is not a desired one such as Snow's description of the sciences where "if the scientists have the future in their bones, then the traditional culture responds by wishing the future did not exist."

  • 15. The Consequences Of The English Industrial Revolution An Industrial Revolution is when a society goes from using tools or making products by hand, to using new sources of energy, such as coal, to power machines in factories. The consequences of the English Industrial Revolution greatly outweighed the benefits. Factories were dangerous and detrimental to the environment, workers were treated inhumanely, and living conditions were unbearable due to urbanization. Factories were unsafe for workers and led to high levels of pollution. They were filled with dust which led to health problems in workers, and "the coolest part of the ironworks was 130 degrees fahrenheit" (web.bcp.org). Workers were cut, bruised, and killed because of uncovered machine shafts. In Joseph Hebergram's testimony to the Sadler Committee, he shares a memory from his time as a child worker: "Hebergam: 'At the L____ Mill where I worked last, a boy was caught in a machine and had both his thigh bones broke and from his knee to his hip the flesh was ripped up the same as it had been cut by a knife.

I do not know if the girl is dead, but she was not expected to live'" (Document 2).

The French compared to the Germans had a much harsher take on revolutions with the Canut revolts in 1831.

Edmund Andros the governor prior to the Glorious Revolution was known for being an extremely strict man that strongly supported the Navigation acts and this is one reason why he was overthrown by Leislor. The rebellion established a rebellious attitude towards British domination, and reinforced the idea that the colonies were subject to British rule by their free will. The War of Regulation was caused by corruption in the government. Officials were unfair and corrupt. Many of the officers were deemed to be very greedy and oftentimes would band together with other local officials for their own personal gain as they sometimes stole tax money along with other things. This war ended with the rebels winning and the regulators were forced to leave.

Dependency and legitimacy are why others have authority over us; however, once we are forced or reasoned to do something, be someone, etc. they lose that power, and that's the time that we must take action. We are consistently ruled by others and the "norms" that society established whether it is knowingly or unconsciously. The fact that others rule us can eventually cause us to feel alienated and once we recognize that isolation, we begin to rebel. For people to shift from being heteronomy to autonomy, each must go through the Phenomenology of Rebellion. The Phenomenology of Rebellion has four steps: alienation, recognition, confusion, destruction and rebellion. Recognizing that you can be more than you or others think is necessary to the process of autonomy.

In the early 20th century, nearly all of Africa was colonized by European powers. Colonialism, and Africans' ill feelings toward being colonized, inspired unity, desire for social change, and an urge for independence. Revolutions were imminent in Africa due to the strict policies of segregation, social structure, and feelings of superiority that the Europeans brought. These feelings were ingrained in many people both consciously and sub–consciously. Many Africans, after independence, fell back into this old routine and when the white populations left, these feelings of superiority and the old social structure continued to manifest itself Africa, only in a new form. This was, and continues to be Africa's biggest problem today. The goal ofrevolution, and independence in Africa was to purge the negative western influences and attitudes that Europeans had put in place. However, even after independence, the same European powers, and their conglomerates continued to influence the governments and people. Many people of Africa fell back into their old ways and had similar thought processes under colonial rule. These fallbacks included superiority of men over women, social status, and the other obligations that one has to society.

  • 23. Differences Between Iranian Revolution And English Civil War Investigation Although occurring at very different times throughout history, looking back today the Iranian Revolution and English Civil War were very much alike. Both revolutions had a lot to do with the leaders of the time and both immediately resulted in turmoil. The Iranian revolution and English Civil war had similar causes however the English Civil War was more successful in ensuring lasting democracy. Firstly, Mohammed Reza Shah Pahlavi was the extremely isolated leader of Iran who was extremely concerned, by any means necessary, with consolidating his power. Not only did the Shah completely remove himself from the suffering society and ignore the injustice surrounding him but he ruled with absolute power meaning that everyone else had little say in government, if any at all. The Shah also created a force known as the SAVAK, and it was largely and widely feared by those who opposed the regime as it was known for extreme surveillance, torture and even execution. Mohammed Reza Shah completely overlooked the fact that up to 70%of Iran's population of 20 million was living in poverty without basic liberties and at the mercy of their landlords. This evidence proves that the needs of the Iranian people were not being met which in many cases, like the case of the English Civil War sets the stage for revolution. Charles Stuart I, was a leader who also ruled by divine right with the belief that he was superior to everyone, including parliament whom he, due to this ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 24. Cause Of The English Revolution In 17th century, series of rebellions and civil wars occurred, known famously as the English Revolution. These events occurred primarily as the result of a power struggle between Parliament and the king. The revolutions served to decide how the power would be distributed in the English government. The events that led up to the English Revolution began largely after the death of Queen Elizabeth I, marking the end of the Tudor dynasty in 1603. James I was crowned king, and the Stuart dynasty began. James, unlike his predecessor, believed in divine right of kings, a concept that said kings were chosen for the position by God and were all–powerful. This is a concept opposite to that of popular sovereignty, in which the power of government was given and sustained by the people, rather than god. This created a rift ...

Dissension among Parliament and the people of England was increased by the fact that James was strongly devoted to the Church of England, which displeased the Puritans, who wished to make the church more Protestant. Because the lower house of Parliament was composed primarily of Puritans, the new king was not popular with most of the members of Parliament. At one point, Parliament passed a law stating that citizens could not be taxed without Parliament's permission, which limited the king's power. James, who believed in the divine right of kings, was displeased by this. He believed that, as a man chosen by god to be a supreme ruler, he should not follow laws, and did not believe in the concept of constitutionalism. Constitutionalism is a concept that says all rulers must obey laws, regardless of standing. Henry I, son of James, further displeased the Puritans by attempting to force ritual on the Church of England, making it seem more Catholic.

  • 25. The And Of The Family One of the first institutions that God created was the family. The family is the backbone of every society, and the strength of any people will be determined by the strength of their homes. In this day and age, it is important to have families that will strive to honor and glorify God. The need for this can be seen in the state of this present world. So many are lives are being destroyed by sin, evil, corruption, and Satan; almost every time, these problems stem back to trouble in home. Without a doubt, present–day families are struggling to find peace, balance, and harmony. Why is this so often the case? The answer is plain and simple: families have left God's biblical pattern for the home. As time goes on, people begin to drift further and further from God's original intent for the family. Now, our society not only accepts homosexuality as an acceptable and legal union, but it now also recognizes them as parents of children as well! Discipline has all but been done away with. Families have drifted so far from God's purpose, and it is no wonder why they are having such a hard time building up another generation. The cycle needs to be broken before its failure becomes too overwhelming. The first and most important guideline for any family is that it ought to be firmly grounded in the Word of God. TheBible ought to be the foundation for any institution, but, especially, it should be the foundation of the home. Within its pages, the answer to all of life's questions can ...

  • 31. How Revolutions Within Europe Over A 500 Year Period In his book, Charles Tilly seeks to determine the circumstances surrounding revolutions within Europe over a 500–year period. Tilly begins by defining revolution and then presents his hypothesis that revolutions stem from the state's actions. According to the author, a revolution consists of two parts, each broken into smaller parts of their own: a revolutionary situation and a revolutionary outcome. A revolutionary situation will consist of three qualifiers. First, a group, or coalition of groups, puts forward a claim to control of the state. The group coming forward must have a claim that cannot coexist with the current regime. This qualifier rules out issues between groups such as political parties that are able to coexist with each other under a basic framework for government. Second, a substantial amount of citizens must give the group support. If a group steps forward without support from the citizens then the power for that group to enact change is handicapped. Third, the rulers must be either unable or unwilling to silence the group. The rulers usually face this situation when their military power has weakened or been spread too thin, giving this definition of revolution a realist edge. Revolutionary outcomes consist of four parts. Members of either side defecting to the other would be considered a revolutionary outcome as it would swing state control into the favor of the group receiving the defectors.

Cotton, a shrubby plant, thrives in warm climates just suitable for South regions and couldn't be grown in the North, because the climate was too cold.

Early models of these machines tended to be unreliable, and some looms were ruined by machine breakers as a statement against the replacement of human labour with machines. The main centres of textile production in England became Greater Manchester, Lancashire and West Yorkshire. Leeds, for example, boasted around 170 'scribbling machines' (which prepare wool for spinning) by 1786; this had unfortunate consequences for workers, who signed a petition in that year stating that 'twelve men are thrown out of employ for every single machine used in scribbling'.

Influence Of English Culture In The Industrial Revolution English Culture Throughout the Industrial Revolution With a booming population of nine million, nineteenth–century England experienced intense growing pains. The Industrial Revolution would not only provide jobs for the vast population and change the economy, but would birth a divided culture between the wealthy and poor. The injustices present in Victorian culture would inspire literary works and authors like Elizabeth Gaskell, who would be moved to write novels based on working conditions. Also during this time period, many new acts would be approved by the constitutional monarchy that would slowly repair the split culture. Through the years of 1811 to 1884, inspired by its constitutional monarchy, English culture was evinced in the literary work of Elizabeth Gaskell.
