Which excerpt from The Odyssey best shows that the ancient Greeks greatly valued the idea of home? My home is on the peaked sea-

mark of Ithaca under Mount Neion's wind-blown robe of leaves, in sight of other islands—Dulichium, Same, wooded Zacynthus—Ithaca being most lofty in that coastal sea, And this new grief we bore with us to sea: our precious lives we had, but not our friends. No ship made sail next day until some shipmate had raised a cry, three times, for each poor ghost unfleshed by the Cicones on that field. They fell in, soon enough, with Lotus-Eaters, who showed no will to do us harm, only offering the sweet Lotus to our friends— but those who ate this honeyed plant, the Lotus, never cared to report, nor to return: I drove them, all three wailing, to the ships, tied them down under their rowing benches, and called the rest: ‘All hands aboard; come, clear the beach and no one taste the Lotus, or you lose your hope of home.’

« The Battle of Freeman’s FarmThe Nullification Crisis »Hamilton Vs. Jefferson

December 29, 2006 by Ando

I had intended to post Part II of the WWI question last night, but got caught up doing movie reviews on Life of Ando.  So to slake your ravenous historical thirst in the meantime, here is my assignment from my history class this past week.  If you’re really into American history and how the politics of the early Republic shook out, Jefferson vs. Hamilton is a great study.  It’s also a little, I guess comforting, to know that as bad as we think today’s politicians are,  politics was always a very dirty game.  Like Bismarck said, “Laws are like sausages.  Better to not see them being made.”  And as Ecclesiastes says, “There’s nothing new under the sun.”

1) How did the political philosophies of these men differ?

Most clear thinking Americans could probably tell you at least the rudimentary facts of who Thomas Jefferson was. Far fewer would likely have a definite idea of who Alexander Hamilton was and what his contributions as a Founding Father were. Yet his conception of an American government was just as important as that of Jefferson. Both founders foresaw the new nation as a great future power, and both had very different maps of how to get it there.

Jefferson believed the nation’s strength lay in its agricultural roots. He favored an agrarian nation with most powers reserved for the states. He was very opposed to a strong central authority and believed that the people were the final authority in government. Jefferson also encouraged active support for the French Revolution

Hamilton favored a strong central authority. He believed a strong government was necessary to provide order so that business and industry could grow. He envisioned America becoming an industrial power. To this end he sought to establish a national bank and fund the national debt in order to establish firm base for national credit. Hamilton believed that the government should be run by those who were educated and wealthy rather than by “the mob.” He opposed involvement in the French Revolution and worried Jeffersonians by appearing, and maybe even being, too cozy with Britain.

Not counting the information in the photo captions, what can you learn from Newsies about what life was like for newsies in New
abruzzese [7]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

You did not attach the photo captions. However, we can comment on this.

What can I learn from Newsies about what life was like for newsies in New York City in the late 1800s is that it was clear that life was not easy in New York City in the late 1800s.

Indeed, life was hard, more for poor people who had to make a living every day in order to survive.

In the case of the Newsies, they were orphans or boys who lived in the streets and sold newspapers to earn some money to make a living. They had to pay for the newspapers they tried to sell, and if they did not sell all the newspapers, the newspaper company did not reimburse their money.

These boys were exploited by powerful news tycoons like Randolph Hearst or Joseph Pulitzer. That is why the Newsies decided to go on strike on July 21, 1899.
