Winston <span>Churchill won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1953 for his lifetime body of work.
</span><span>
Churchill’s mother Lady Randolph (Jennie Jerome) was an American born in Brooklyn, which of course made Winston half American.
</span>While serving a dual role as a war correspondent and military officer in South Africa, Churchill <span>was taken captive by the Boers. He was able to scale a wall and sneak out one night. After hiding in a mineshaft and sneaking aboard a train, he was able to rejoin the fight after a week.

He was also accident prone and still managed to make it to 90 years old!
As a child, Churchill suffered from concussions and ruptured kidney while playing on a bridge. Once, he nearly drown in a Swiss lake (yikes!). He fell from multiple horses (done that). Dislocated his shoulder (painful!) disembarking from a ship in India. Crashed a plane while learning to fly (if he was alive i wouldnt want him piloting any plane im on). Was hit by a car while crossing 5th Avenue in New York (again, painful!)
<span>What an adventure!</span>
Churchill suffered from depression all his life, but his mental health deteriorated markedly in his final years. It didn't help that one daughter was suicidal while another was a drunkard. His physical health also continued to decline, and he suffered a series of strokes.
Answer:
During the Ming Period (1368–1644), traditional values and conservative thinking produced generations of court painters, but artistic exploration was also supported outside the court.
The Qing Period (1644–1912) produced outstanding artists and artistic techniques, despite increasing conservatism. Schools of painting emerged, based on locations such as Yangzhou and Nanjing.
With the emergence of the People’s Republic of China in 1949 came an entirely new aesthetic, dictated by the government and based on the art of the Soviet Union. Later artists, however, have embraced contemporary and abstract artistic ideals of the West.
Liberals believe in government action to achieve equal opportunity and equality for all. Conservatives believe in personal responsibility, limited government, free markets, individual liberty, traditional American values and a strong national defense. Hope this helped!
