How did innovations in communication technology affect american women

History

Lemur [1.5K]3 years ago

Hey there,

Women have been on the other side of the line since the <em>telegraph</em> was invented, and we served a significant role during the American Civil War and then in both WWl-WWll as well by providing this manual connection service.

Then, just around the 1960's when communication technology was starting to make us all feel a little bit closer to each other around town <em>(or around the country)</em> the working force behind all of it was mostly women.

These women would manually connect callers to each individual phone. So, that very famous saying <em>"Operator, get me..."</em> was really something people would say on their daily basis.

These innovations gave many of American women stable jobs around a growing technology that still continues to evolve.

Describe in your own words the interaction between Dante and the lady who comes to visit him in canto 2
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

Dante is standing at the mouth of hell with Virgil and he feels a great sense of dread and apprehension about continuing. Virgil then tells him that a women told him to find Dante and be his guide in hell, this lady was Beatrice. She came down from Heaven to tell Virgil of Dante's story and ask him to help Dante. Beatrice was Dante's true love (in real life and in the story) who died and is now counted among the blessed in Heaven. She had learned of Dante's plight from St. Lucia, also in Heaven, who in turn heard about the poor poet from the Virgin Mary. Beatrice symbolizes divine love and is sent by Mary and Lucia to help Dante by enlisting Virgil's help. Beatrice also knows that Dante will listen to Virgil if he knows that she has intervened and still loves him and that he is being watched over.
