It can be translated to any language but not to any different culture because in the play Our Town the culture is unique and not replicated in other countries.

Yes. Any play can be successfully "translated" into other languages and cultures

For languages, take for example The Bible. It has been translated into hundreds of languages.

For Culture, you can take for example, the story can be changed for people in different parts of the world to understand it more. For example, if you are in a banking industry, the story might be about banking, but the meaning stays the same. For farmers, you might change it to farming, but keep the same meaning.

hope this helps

What are some of the problems that educators have had when teaching the impact of slavery in schools?​
Ganezh [65]

Most educators fail to give the true benefits of slavery, while enhancing the bad. I agree, slavery (or the enslaving of another being for being quote & quote "inferior") is wrong. However, there has to be a reason why there has been slavery for a good part of history, from ancient history all the way up to the just recently.  

Before we can talk about the impact of slavery, we should first define the term. Slavery by definition is, a "condition in one human being [is] owned by another... considered by law as property.., and [is] deprived of most rights ordinarily held by free persons. "  In this case, this definition mostly just states how it works, while not going into the details (as experience can vary depending on the ownership).

The first problem we can see is <em>ownership</em>. Ownership is defined as "the act, state or right of possessing something". In the case of ownership of slaves, it is the act of possessing another human being. The Constitution states that for slavery to be legal, it must be "as a punishment for crime.... within the United States,... subject to their jurisdiction." However, it is important to note that the 13th amendment (the abolition of slavery, as constituted by the above quote), was not passed during this time, and so was not enforce until during the civil war. In a sense, the argument we can have right now is that 1) Since there is no law restricting the usage, then 2) it is still legal in being able to do so, therefore the South has a point and the right to own slaves. After all, the Founding Fathers themselves failed to ban slavery as they were afraid of protests from the Southern colonies. The slavery problem was looked at in different directions. As to pertaining the ownership, Congress had came up with <em>compensation emancipation</em>, which was enacted in which slave owners can free their slaves in exchange for money. However, this soon proved costly, and so was dropped out of favor. Slavery in itself is wrong, but to destroy someone's livelihood on a viewpoint that may not be shared by all can only be done so militaristically and with force.

The second problem that educators have is the <em>effect of slavery</em>. Slavery was an essential part in the south's economy. The Abolitionists failed to put forth a good enough plan for the south. Many had sunk their fundings into the slaves in an effort to use the extra "cheaper-overall" hands to turn a profit. Afterall, slaves were much more cheaper than farm hands, who instead of having to be paid and insured on top of everything, only need shelter, food, and some form of clothing. Slaves can also be forced to do tasks, while helping hands can choose if they want too or not. Taking away the slaves in such a short time proved detrimental to the south's economy. Their production of already dropping crop prices was further driven down by smaller outputs of materials. The south failed in being initiated into the mechanical world, and would take years to bounce back.

The third problem that educators have is the effects of slavery in today's political world. Apparently, events that happened at least 150 years ago (with some detrimental effects seen in today's world, but as a whole, slavery by definition), seems to be a subject to be brought up today. Granted, there are lessons to be learned from the events and history brought forth from the era of slavery, but to ask for reparation for slavery is a bit too much. After all, this is essentially the essence of the quote, "visiting the iniquity of the father upon the sons to the third and fourth generation". In essence, while we are affected by the history of what has taken place, we are not the source of the problem, therefore we should not have to deal with having the "source" problem placed on us. Educators who typically are influenced and lean certain directions fail to realize this, and impose the idealogy that we failed as if we were there. Instead, we must learn from the events, but not place blame on who is alive today, but rather use the information we gained from the events to ensure that it is not repeated. Educators typically say "slavery is bad, slavery is bad", but fail to give reasons as to why slavery was used in the first place. After all, if slavery was so bad, why was it used? There must be some positive (for at least one party) for something to take place. An analogy that can be used is a worm infested apple. Worm-infested apples are detrimental to health, but why is a certain person eating it? While it is negative overall, there must be some form of positive to force the person to eat the apple, in which case he is trying to fill his stomach, as he has been starving for days. The same can be applies. Why was slavery used? It was imposed as a cheaper way of finding workers, either as there is a population shortcoming towards production, and as a cheaper way to maximize profits.

Can anyone please do a summry on the chapter 11-15 of the novel 'the lion the witch and the wardrobe'
kati45 [8]

Answer:

In chapter eleven, the children are waiting in the Witch's castle for her to return and turn them into stone. They are very scared and when they hear her coming, they all hide. The Witch comes in and cannot find them, so she gets angry and turns a man into a statue. She then leaves the room and the children come out of hiding.

In chapter twelve, the Witch is getting ready to go out and she tells her servants to keep an eye on the children. She also tells them to bring the children to her if they try to leave. The children are then left alone and they start to explore the castle. They find a room full of books and they also find a room with a window that looks out onto a courtyard.

In chapter thirteen, the children are playing in the courtyard when they see the Witch coming. They all hide again, but the Witch finds Lucy. She is about to turn her into a statue when Aslan appears. The Witch is terrified of Aslan and she runs away. Aslan then talks to the children and he tells them that they are going to be free.

In chapter fourteen, the children are taken to a cave where they meet the White Witch. She is very old and she is dying. Aslan tells the children that they must forgive her, and they do. The Witch then dies and Aslan takes her body away.

In chapter fifteen, the children are back in the forest and they are waiting for Aslan to come and take them home. He does not come and they start to worry. Suddenly, they hear his voice and they follow it. Aslan is waiting for them at the edge of the forest and he takes them home.
