John Damascus (675 or 676 - 749), the so-called John Damascene, was a Syrian monk and priest. He wrote many works on Christian faith, and his hymns are still used in the liturgical practice of the Eastern Orthodox Church. According to some sources, he was patriarch of Jerusalem, but these are not officially confirmed sources and should be accepted with reserve. He was best known for his strong defense of icons during the iconoclsam.

The correct answer is: The leading opponent of iconoclasm


Iconoclasm is a belief in the necessity of destroying icons by those who have literally interpreted the ten commandments of God, where it is said that there is no image for worship. This is, of course, the wrong interpretation of the commandments. Under the auspices of the Byzantine Empire, there was a lot to and against the destruction of icons. Iconoclasm was led by the Byzantine Emperor Leo III, so that all the opponents were most strongly prosecuted. This also affected the relationship between the Byzantine Empire and the West. Catholic Church always defended sacred images and icons, but not their rise and worship as gods.

The correct answer is: A break in relations between the East and West

How did plantation crops and the slavery system change between 1800 and 1860? why did these changes occur?
padilas [110]
<span>I would say that the changes occurred between 1800 and 1860 in plantation crops and slavery systems were because of  the Industrial Revolution.After the southern states which needed the slaves the most were free to decide about the fate of the horrible slave trade. </span>At this point in time, the cotton production was very low and there were around 700,000 slaves in the whole country. So there could have been a chance that the trade could have died out. But then textiles and several machines like the cotton gin which helped grow even more cotton and crops and the southern economy boomed. The cotton quantities increased and by 1840, the South was producing and exporting over 2/3 of the world’s cotton, giving the region power. And naturally with the bigger plantations, they needed more slaves and  White planters started looking for new slaves in the upper South states, and between 1800 and 1860, the domestic slave trade was so popular that there became a craze called "Negro Mania" (which is really racist). Now this is a horrible chapter in America's history but <span>it was crucial for the southern economy, and it was an important resource to raise money, straightening the economy of the South.</span>

How did the mongols rule medieval russia?
aleksklad [387]

Mongol rule had the great consequence of separating Russia from Western Europe. Then, it contributed significantly to the cruelty and harshness of folk customs and administrative practices. Much Orientalism entered the Russian life through the Moscow. Moscow has lent, perhaps, some useful lines in the organization of government, finances, statistics, but this positive profit is quite lost when compared to the enormous evil that undoubtedly brought evil times.

Explanation:

  • Mongol rule undoubtedly completely torn the state and national unity of the Russians, insofar as it was, although it did not completely suppress the national consciousness.
  • The western and southwestern Russian provinces were not long under the influence of the Tatars, but came under the influence and power of Poland, Lithuania and some Germans.
  • Northwest Russia, like northern Russia, was more nominally under Tatar rule, while the middle of the country remained under the yoke for the longest and longest.
