The term 'In medias res' is a Latin phrase which means 'In the middle of things or events'.

Explanation:

The term 'In medias res' is a Latin phrase which means 'In the middle of things or events'.

In Homer's epic, Odyssey, he begins with the phrase In medias res. The story thus begins with the wanderings of Odysseus and then goes on with the Trojan War. Knowing the journey of Odysseus, it creates interest in the reader.  The story becomes enjoyable by the narration of Odysseus's journey rather than beginning with the winning of the Trojan war.

Why did some colonists smuggle goods in the 1760s
Alex73 [517]

Some colonists resorted to smuggling because it offered a way they could avoid the restrictions placed on  trade by the British. Restrictions were placed on what the colonies could manufacture, whose ships they could use, and most importantly, with whom they could trade.

British merchants wanted American colonists to buy British goods, not French, Spanish, or Dutch products. In theory Americans would pay duties on imported goods to discourage this practice. The Navigation Act and Molasses Act were just two examples of royal attempts to restrict colonial trade.

Smuggling is the way the colonists ignored these restrictions.
