Answer:  The spoils system

The term "spoils system" was used by President Jackson's political opponents, who took a very negative view of his practice of rewarding political supporters with government jobs.  The origin of the term, however, came from one of Jackson's supporters.  In a speech in the Senate, defending Jackson and his administration, Senator William Marcy of New York said, "To the victors belong the spoils."

Jackson's opponents bristled at that thought and continued to speak against what became known as "the spoils system."

What elements of the Celtic culture survived their invasion?
murzikaleks [220]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The elements of the Celtic culture that survived their invasions were the following.

One of them was the way they forged iron and produced weapons such as blades. The Celtic technique influenced the Roman Army. Celts knew how to work with iron. Celtic metalwork and cultural traditions were an important part of the Iron Age in Europe, reaching far places in the Mediterranean.

Another key aspect that transcended was the way they saw and pa¿ractice religion. They focused on worship elements of nature. They could be considered spiritual people, not religious people.

Another important element was Celtic art that passed the test of time and influenced the Romans and can be admired even today in places such as Scotland and Ireland, where buildings and temples contain much of the influence of Celtic art.

La frase "nadie se baña 2 veces en el mismo rio" del filósofo griego heraclito ¿tiene incidencia en la cotidianeidad de la vida?
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

La frase del filósofo Heráclito puede reflejar su impacto en la cotidianeidad de la vida a través de la siguiente, la apreciación de la vida de cada persona como una sucesión de instantes únicos e irrepetibles, donde la aparición de un instante requiere de la "muerte" del instante inmediatamente anterior y el instante actual ha de "morir" para que surja el siguiente instante.

La unicidad de cada instante se debe a la composición y el estado de la persona, cuyo comportamiento y naturaleza es inabarcable, y su relación con los demás, aún más inabarcable. Es en ese sentido que "nadie se baña dos veces en el mismo río".
