Clearly the trials are begun by the wagging of tongues after the girls are found in the woods, but gossip certainly has a more enduring role. Reputations in Salem are made or broken based on slander and rumor, and reputation was a man's only defense against accusation - and even that often failed to correct aspersions. But gossip also proves to be a destructive force even in the hands of the good and unwitting, taking on a life of its own - Giles Corey, for instance, condemns his own wife simply by a slip of the tongue.

PLZ HELP 30 POINTS Based on what you have learned about Luke's background, what influences would have had a shaping force on Luk
postnew [5]

Luke was a physician who wrote his Gospel from a medical point of view, naming the diseases of the people that Jesus healed. Luke was associated with Paul. Luke was called the beloved physician. Luke was also what we today would call an investigative journalist. He was not an eyewitnesses of Jesus or these events, but interviewed those who had. He wanted to be sure he got the account as accurate as possible. I read recently that this Gospel may have been written to present as evidence at Paul's trial in Rome. It is addressed to "most noble Theophilis". It's speculated he was a high official in Caesar's court and may have been a new convert. The book of Acts is a sequel to Luke and is a continuation of early church history. Again, it is addressed to Theophilis.

What factors led to economic changes in the north
weeeeeb [17]

Answer: The North was an industrial giant.

Explanation:

The industrial revolution that engulfed the United States was mainly reflected in the North of the country. Therefore, in the twentieth century, the country will be one of the most significant industrial factors in the world. In the North, there were substantial banks, compared to the south, a total of 13% of banks were stationed. The North was developing rapidly thanks to the Industrial Revolution. In the North, an excellent rail network was built, so that the flow of goods and people flowed significantly faster.

The North was well on its way to a commercial and productive economy, which would have a direct impact on its wartime capability. By 1860, 90 percent of national manufacturing output came from northern states. Even in an agricultural sense, the North was more super-ironical. While traditional agricultural production continued to be nurtured in the south, mechanization was mainly in use in the North. All of these factors are also very important to the result of the American Civil War.
