Answer:
In the Roman Republic, a very complex civilization developed. Rome’s social structure was strict. Patricians were perched at the top of the social structure and slaves were at the bottom. In the middle, plebeians and freedmen were found. A person’s status in life was determined not only by his or her social class but also by gender and children. Women and children often had different rights and responsibilities than did men of any class in Rome.
Imagine that today’s texting technology was invented during the time in which the Roman Republic existed. What might a text message conversation between two Roman children be like? In this assignment, you will create the script for a text message conversation between a Roman child from the upper class and a Roman child from the lower class. Your fictional conversation should have at least a total of 10 messages between the two participants. Before you begin your assignment take a few minutes to review Level 1 of the Integrating Knowledge and Ideas into the Study of History Activity.
The text messages conversation must:
have a total of 10 text messages, each at least two complete sentences
describe the differences in the daily lives of upper class and lower class citizens
describe the opportunities for children in general in Rome
compare how life differed for female and male children in Rome
explain the effect of social status on one’s future in the Roman Republic
Use the cell phone template to create your conversation between the two children. While you can be creative in your dialogue, be sure that you write in complete sentences and that your script includes enough information and details to clearly explain what each child’s life is like.
Explanation:
Picasso changed art by showing the world that an artist does not always have an specific style, he can have several styles to make his pieces. For example Picasso, used different styles like cubism, painting in blue, modernism or the pink age. He show us that humans, just like artists, change with time and different experiences. That, every person and society acts and develops according to their life experiences and step by step their styles turn into what they are nowadays.
For expample, in his paint called "The woman with her arms crossed" he used his style called " Painting in blue" to express the tough life conditions in which the marginalized social class live in. And this is what Picasso saw and knew, so he wanted to express it by using this style in his pieces.
Silk production
---------------------
A moth lays 500 or so eggs and then dies
Baby worms hatch from the eggs are fed mulberry leaves for one month until they are fat
The worms spin cocoons
The cocoons are steamed to kill the growing moth inside
The cocoons are rinsed in hot water to loosen the threads
Women would unwind the cocoons and then combine six or so fibers into silk threads
The threads are woven into cloth
The cloth is then pounded to make it softer
Why it was valuable to the Chinese
-------------------------------------------------
Silk cloth was extremely valuable in Ancient China. Wearing silk was an important status symbol. At first, only members of the royal family were allowed to wear silk. Later, silk clothing was restricted to only the noble class. Merchants and peasants were not allowed to wear silk. Silk was even used as money during some Ancient Chinese dynasties.
Why it was secret
-------------------------
Silk became a prized export for the Chinese. Nobles and kings of foreign lands desired silk and would pay high prices for the cloth. The emperors of China wanted to keep the process for making silk a secret. Anyone caught telling the secret or taking silkworms out of China was put to death.
Hope all this helps :)
Hi.Those who were not merchants, and those who lived on the frontier. Those who lived in the Tidewater area were usually considered to be higher class. The class system of the colonial era was determined more by location, religion, and race rather than blood (as it was in England). It was more mobile, also, than the feudal system of England. Have a nice day.
