The main difference between the Sophists and the other philosophers is that the Sophists were essentially rhetoric teachers, while the other philosophers were more interested in seeking the truth.

The Sophists were rhetoric teachers, and their focus was on the art of persuasion by using language. They were wise intellectual people, and they tried to use and teach their abilities of persuasion by using language to the wider masses.

The philosophers, on the other hand, were focused on knowing the truth, they wanted to be wiser by knowing the truth instead of dogmatically stand by the false beliefs. So they were trying to teach the wider masses the ways as to how to come to the truth and wisdom.

Triss [41]

There was a Federalist president and a Democratic-Republican vice-president and there were ties. Federalist John Adams defeated Democratic-Republican Thomas Jefferson.

gregori [183]

Answer:

A. The selling of indulgences was a major cause of the Protestant Reformation.

Explanation:

It is known as Protestant Reformation to the Christian religious movement, initiated in Germany in the sixteenth century by Martin Luther, which led to a schism of the Catholic Church to give rise to numerous churches grouped under the denomination of Protestantism.

The Reformation had its origin in the criticisms and proposals with which various religious, thinkers and European politicians sought to cause a profound and widespread change in the customs and customs of the Catholic Church, in addition to denying the jurisdiction of the pope over all Christianity.

In particular, the Reformation rejected Catholic sacramental theology, which, according to Luther, allowed and justified practices such as the "sale of indulgences", a sequestration of the Gospel, which should be freely preached, and not sold.

previous knowledge of Fascist leaders make comparisons between the Fascists leaders in both Italy and Germany. Students must mak
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

The term Fascism comes from the Italian word <em>fasci </em>which means ¨bundle of sticks¨, symbolizing strength in unity.

1 History: Mussolini was a charismatic figure that fitted perfectly in the sensitive Italian idea of a <em>¨Ceasar¨ , </em>a strong leader that can unit his people. Hitler had supposedly the right (ideological and economic) answers for the German people who suffered from the Versailles war treaties.

2. Unity: Where Mussolini sought the Italian unity in a more geographical sence, Hitler was more concerned with uniting the German <em>Volk</em> (people).

3. Ideology and propaganda: Hitler´s idea of <em>Lebensraum </em>(space to live) and   the special role the German people supposedly had in the world, were the ideological fundaments that proved very succesfull in convincing the Germans of the need for European expansion; Mussolini´s ideology was more based on reviving the glory of the Roman Empire without trying to conquer the whole of Europe.

4. Military strength and strategies:  they differed much in strength and how to obtain their military goals: Mussolini was much weaker compared to the impressive German war-machine, especially in the first war years.

5. Personality: Hitler, as we know, was obsessed with wiping out the Jews which he hated; Mussolini, although a racist, didn´t go that far and was more obsessed with Italy itself.

6. Fascism & Nazism: The Fascism of Mussolini was a yearning for national unity and strong leadership; Hitler´s nazism is a form of fascism that incorporated anti-communism, antisemitism and scientific racism.
