<span>During the 1920s and 1930s a literary and cultural revolution arose, referred to as the Harlem Renaissance. The movement cultivated a new cultural identity and voice for African Americans through art, music, and literature. The period coincided with the movement of many African Americans from the South to the urban areas in the North. Such early literary pillars as Countee Cullen, Zora Neale Hurston, W.E.B. DuBois, and numerous others contributed to a body of work that opened doors to publishing houses and other literary outlets formerly closed. The arrival of the Great Depression marked a temporary end to the movement, but its descendents (Richard Wright and Arna Bontemps, for example) emerged after World War II to continue their work.</span>
Answer:
A printing press is a device that squeezes ink onto paper or a fine print surface. The development and spread of the press was one of the most influential events of the second millennium as it created an intellectual and social revolution, marked the beginning of the mass media, and escorted the modern age. German Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press around 1440, when he created a screw press. A print press is used to publish books and newspapers. Over a period of time the word 'press' turned to mean not only the metal machine used, but also the company that used it; the word comes from the act of pressing the type against the surface of the paper.
Before the 14th century the usual method of printing information was by using blocks of wood, or etching material like leather. When Gutenberg invented folding to create mobile type, it became a much faster process, and thus commercially profitable.
Periodization divides history into discrete, quantified named blocks of time in order to facilitate the study and analysis of history.
A statement in the Declaration of Independence confirms that with these statements:
We hold these truths (Natural and Individual Rights) to be self-evident, that all men created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Egyptians are known for making a lot of advances in learning.
The two big ones are :
Paper
Hieroglyphs
Egypt is also known for various other things such as ...
The place of the first surgery.
The first place to incorporate plants, animal parts, and minerals into medicine.
Where the first physician lived.
There are many more advances in learning and great discoveries Egypt made, but the ones I listed only make up a few! If you'd like to learn more, I suggest looking it up.
Hope this helps! :)
