Charles Darwin's The Origin of the Species has turned literature to 360 degrees. It leads theatre and book writing towards realism - a more realistic approach. It gives realist writers the chance to show what they've got. How operas and books have been played and written respectively would not be the same as of today if not because of the Origin of the Species. It has opened the mind of everyone from illusion to reality.

Darwin’s ideas made a huge impact in literature. By the end of the nineteenth century, literary development was tending strongly toward realistic, even naturalistic works, which laid out a world devoid of overt morality, where primitive emotions, self-centered motives, and hereditary failings came to rule lives and societies. Darwinian evolution was of a piece with this, especially as some writers, such as Émile Zola in France, hoped to develop a scientific literature, that is, imaginative writing that so emulated reality that it could present life under the microscope. Also, naturalist writers like Jack London set his most famous novel in nature with "Call of the Wild" and "White Fang".

It also brought about political changes. Darwin had a significant influence on Karl Marx. Struggle and survival are central to Darwin's theory of evolution and Marx would be influenced by these thoughts to write the "Communist Manifesto". He used Darwin's theory in application to human class struggle.

Congress as an institution typically has very low public opinion ratings
erastova [34]

The second part of this question (<em>You must include an evaluation of YOUR congressional representative with at least TWO specific examples of why you approve or disapprove of his/her performance</em>) is a personal task, and only you can complete it. However, we are able to provide some assistance with the first part.

It is true that Congress typically has a very low public opinion rating, while at the same time people rate their individual representatives highly. The main reason for this is the fact that people tend to think of their individual representatives as personally closer to them.

A person's representative tends to come from the same city or neighbourhood as the voter. Moreover, he tends to campaign in this area. Therefore, the voter is able to see his face, hear his voice and listen to his platform often. This creates a sense of trust and a connection between representative and voter. Moreover, as the voter himself votes the representative in, he is also more likely to be hopeful about his performance. All of these factors lead to people rating their own individual representatives more highly than Congress itself.

Well...it might be that old "supply and demand" factor. As one example: a corporation/rancher/farmer might have the "demand" and the immigrant might have the "supply."
