<span>It was a manner of symbolic punishment. Since the hand was the offending part that led to the crime, it was felt that it was appropriate to remove this as a way of deterring the person from doing the same thing in the future.</span>

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

This question is incomplete, here´s the complete question.

It is only in the past few years that women in the armed services of the United States have been permitted to be active combatants in a battlefield setting. While this has taken place over a number of years and has evolved for a variety of reasons, it is also reasonable to suggest that it has happened in part because of:

a. increased militarization worldwide.

b. greater global threat levels.

c. increased terrorist activity.

d. a shortage of qualified male soldiers.

Answer: a. increased militarization worldwide.

Explanation:

Women have been allowed to serve as an official part of the U.S. military in noncombat positions after Congress founded the Army Nurse Corps (1901). Women were also radio operators, logistical personnel and even helicopter pilots and tank technicians.

Increased militarization worldwide has expanded the United State´s female participation in combat since the early 1990s, when women were allowed to work in aviation and naval combat, and especially since 2016, when they were allowed to work all ground combat jobs.

Robert Henri formed the Realism School of artists that the critics referred to as the Ashcan School. Why did the critics assign
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

<u>1) Why did the critics assign this derogatory term to Henri and his followers?</u>

Because the Ashcan School was creating an art form that portraits the day by day life of ordinary and humble people, and the detractors didn't believe that this was important. The term 'Ashcan' was often used, before the formation of this art movement, to describe art forms that were not understood or accepted by the audience. An ordinary art form.

<u>2) How was realism of this twentieth-century group different from realistic representation of the nineteenth-century?</u>

Because the members of the Ashcan School were focusing to portrait the urban life, while the 19th century realism wanted to do the opposite, choosing to paint the natural elements.

<u>3) Select a work of art by one of the followers of the Ashcan School and one of the nineteenth-century realistic paintings to illustrate your discussion.</u>

For this question, I think that the paintings you need to choose to ilustrate must contrast the ideas of these groups (Ashcan School and the traditional realism). Then, I believe that 'Hester Street' executed in 1905 by George Luks is a good choice, because it's portraits excacly what the Ashcan School wanted to do with art. On the other hand, 'The Cotton Pickers' (1876) or 'Long Branch, New Jersey' (1869), both executed by Winslow Homer, are a good counter argument.
