Why do historians consider political cartoons to be credible sources in historical inquiry

History
2 answers:
Over [174]3 years ago
8 0
Because often time political cartoons provided information concerning the political climate of the time.  They provided information about the attitudes of the people. Using a cartoon in addition to other historical resources provides a more clear picture of the political climate.

Because it offers the historian an objective snapshot of the public sentiment of the time, which the cartoonist (should be) distilling for their readers, according to their feelings, for mass appeal. I say objective as it is usually very easy to decipher their subjective viewpoint according to the publication. The value of this is that it is tapping into how the masses 'feel' rather than how subjective facts can be built to form historical opinion. It becomes especially valuable prior to this century, when public sentiment is harder to garner as we were less technologically advanced.

Which event helped transfer power from the West to the East? A. the development of a unique code of law for the Byzantine Empire
Daniel [21]

Answer:

B. the shift of the Roman Empire's capital from Rome to Constantinople

Explanation:

The Western Roman Empire had been on the decline, while the Eastern Roman Empire has been on the rise. Being more powerful and more influential, the capital of the Roman Empire shifted in the Eastern part of it. Constantinople became the capital of the Roman Empire in 330 AD. This led to significant transfer of power toward the East, and big loss of power in the West. The East prospered more and more and became the strongest power in every sense in the region. The West on the other side was crumbling, little by little losing its political, economic, and military power, eventually resulting in its fall.
