History

Correct answer: B. Overcrowded and unsanitary tenements

Details:

Jacob Riis was a police reporter in New York.  In 1888, Riis took pictures of what life was like in city's slums.  Using his own photos as well as photos gathered from other photographers, Riis began to give lectures titled, "The Other Half: How It Lives and Dies in New York," in which he would show the pictures on a projection screen and describe for viewers what the situations were like.  He gave his lectures in New York City churches.  In 1989, a magazine article by Riis (based on his lectures) was published in <em>Scribner's Magazine.  </em>The book version was then published in 1890 as <em>How the Other Half Lives: Studies among the Tenements of New York.</em>

Riis blamed the poor living conditions on greed and neglect from society's wealthier classes, and called on society to remedy the situation as a moral obligation.

Describe the importance of calligraphy and the Koran.
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Inspired by and following the Koran, calligraphy became the main feature of Islamic art.

Explanation:

The Koran, or Qur'an, is the sacred book of Islam, which according to tradition was written by prophet Muhammad between 609-632 following divine inspiration by God. The Korean establishes that there's only one God, and that he is indivisible. This idea of the oneness of God is known as the tawhid, and it's the single most important principle of Islam. Following this concept, Islam forbids any and all representations of God or Muhammad, because creating an image of any of them could lead to idolatry, which runs contrary to the principle of the oneness of God. This led Islamic artists to focus on calligraphy as a form of art. From the beginning, the first versions of the Koran were written in highly stylized Arabic calligraphy. Soon this style spread, and Islamic art became renowned for its intricate calligraphy in paintings, pottery, architecture, and many more.
