The mystery religions ​

History
1 answer:
DochEvi [55]3 years ago

Answer:

Mystery religion, any of various secret cults of the Greco-Roman world that offered to individuals religious experiences not provided by the official public religions. They originated in tribal ceremonies that were performed by primitive peoples in many parts of the world.

Explanation, the word mystery is derived from the Greek verb mien (“to close”), referring to the lips and the eyes.

History  

Dionysiac

In every Greek city the god Dionysus was worshipped by fraternities and sororities and also by mixed communities. Dionysus was a god of fruitfulness and vegetation but especially of wine. The Dionysiac festivals provided an opportunity for stepping outside of the daily routine. The festivals included not only drinking wine and engaging in sexual activity but also participating in such significant features of Greek civilization as choral singing and mimes. In many cases, only the initiated could participate in the ceremonies. As almost every Greek did join in, initiation into the Dionysiac cult might be compared to tribal initiations. It seems that initiation into the Dionysiac Mysteries was accompanied by initiation into sexual life.

What was the statue of US workplace safety laws in 1900
Murljashka [212]
It was  horrendous. There were absolutely no Child labor laws, meaning that children would face practical slave labor and really unsafe conditions while working in factories. The machines in these factories were anything but safe, and it was not uncommon for someone to lose a finger, and/or die due to an affect of the machine. There were no laws in place at this time to change this.

Katen [24]

Answer:

War communism was an economic and political system applied in the Soviet Union during the Russian Civil War from 1918 to 1921, introduced by the Bolsheviks to continue supplying cities and the Red Army with food and weapons under conditions where all normal economic systems were halted by the war.  

Its characteristic features were the extreme centralization of economic management, the nationalization of large, medium and even small industries, the state monopoly on many agricultural products, surplus appropriation, the prohibition of private trade, the curtailment of commodity-money relations, equalization in the distribution of material wealth, and the militarization of labor. This policy was based on communist ideology, in which the ideal of a planned economy was seen in the transformation of the country into a single factory, the head office of which directly controls all economic processes.

What was one way the passage of the Factory Acts (1844–1847) affected labor?
Vadim26 [7]
The primary way in which the passage of the Factory Acts (1844–1847) affected labor was that it restricted the working hours in factories to 10 hours a day, which cut back on worker injury and fatigue.
