How did the Fabian Society reflect Victorian ideals?

1 answer:

6 0

Victorian ideals valued respectability and restraint. One was to be polite and courteous and dutiful, not pushy or overbearing.

The Fabian Society was a group aiming for a moral remaking of Britain according to a socialist model, but they were much more refrained and respectable in their approach than Marxists who sought revolution. Founded in 1883, the Fabian Society sought change by gradual means, not through violence or agitation. They took their name from the Roman general Quintus Fabius <span>Maximus Verrucosus, who was nicknamed "</span><span>Cunctator" ("delayer") for his use of delaying tactics rather than a direct attack in confronting the army of Hannibal in the Second Punic War.</span>

How did people first react to the stock market crash

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

Explanation:

Panic and disbelief and astonishment.

Many people were on margin (that's when you put your stock up for security and the bank makes you a loan to buy more stock. Effectively the bank owns the stock).

"Everybody's doing it. You can make scads of money doing it."

When the market crashed, in many cases it took everything you yur had. Those who knew what was going on panicked. Some jumped owt windows. I good remainder when this happened was roughly 20%

Those how didn't know what was going on phoned their brokers who likely told them to hang on -- this was only a correction. Other brokers advised they sell which only intensified the selling pressure. There was no way out. People who don't understand margin should never use it.

Many banks closed their doors. If you want to watch a movie on the subject, you should watch A Wonderful Life. It's a classic. Every library has it or can get it for you.

Correct answer: C. George Whitefield

George Whitefield (1714-1770) was one of the early leaders of the Methodist movement in England, and also came and preached in the American colonies. During his career, he preached tens of thousands of sermons, with millions of people having heard him preach. Ben Franklin was one of those who heard him preach and was impressed. Christianity.com reports that Franklin offered to print Whitefield's sermons and provided housing to Whitefield in Philadelphia above his shop on Market Street. Franklin wasn't a full "convert" to Whitefield's religious perspective, but he did have great respect for the work Whitefield did.
