History

Usimov [2.4K]2 years ago
7 0

Themis was a goddess in ancient Greek mythology that was represented by Law, order and Justice.

Also, the ancient Egyptians had Ma'at who was a more or less likened to the Greek godesses, Themis.

Ma'at was known to carry both a sword and and a feather of truth.

Both mythology could be compared to the Roman goddess of Justice known as Justitia.

<h3>Difference between The Symbol of Themis and Ma'at</h3>

Themis is depicted as a woman with a sword on one hand and a scale on the other hand.

Her image is usually blindfolded and it shows that Justice is blind and does not recognize anyone however everyones deeds are weighed with the same scale and justice is served with the sword.

Ma'at on the other hand is depicted as a woman who is either sitting or standing while wearing an ostrich feather on her head and, in some cases, she was depicted with wings.

Nazi leaders used kristallnacht to their advantage by
Katena32 [7]

Nazi leaders used <em>Kristallnacht </em>to their advantage by blaming the Jews for the violence that had occurred, and beginning a campaign of putting Jews into concentration camps.

Context/details:

In November, 1938, there was rampant destruction of Jewish-owned businesses and synagogues and violence against Jewish people.  This occurred on the night of November 9 going on into November 10, 1938, and was called "<em>Kristallnacht,</em>" or "The Night of Broken Glass."   It was public violence by masses of people, not a specific campaign ordered by the Nazi regime. However, Nazi officials did tell police and firefighters to do nothing -- to let the violence and destruction occur.  The next day, Joseph Goebbels, the Nazi minister of propaganda, said that this sort of eruption against the Jews was natural and understandable.  He said:  "It is an intolerable state of affairs that within our borders and for all these years hundreds of thousands of Jews still control whole streets of shops, populate our recreation spots and, as foreign apartment owners, pocket the money of German tenants, while their racial comrades abroad agitate for war against Germany."

In the days after <em>Kristallnacht, </em>the Nazi government said that the Jewish community itself was responsible for all the damage and destruction, and imposed enormous fines against the Jewish community.  They also arrested more than 30,000 Jewish men and sent them to concentration camps which were built to incarcerate Jews and any others that the Nazis perceived to be enemies of the German state.
