The Middle Ages was the period between the 5th and the 15th century in European history. It begins with the <em>fall of the Western Roman Empire</em> and ends with either the <em>Renaissance</em> or the <em>Age of Discovery</em>.
- What were the main components that made up the culture of the Middle Ages?
There are several ways to analyze the culture of the Middle Ages. In terms of architecture, the Middle Ages saw the birth of <em>Romanesque</em> and <em>Gothic</em> architecture, mainly developed in churches and castles. Metalwork, manuscript illustration and wall-paintings were other common forms of art. <em>Christianity</em> became relevant in all aspects of life and eventually motivated the <em>Crusades</em> (wars of reconquest). After the <em>Black Death</em> arose in 1347, about 35 million people died in the next three years. However, the plague returned several times throughout the 14th century.
- What happened in the Middle Ages, intellectually, between the 11th and 14th centuries?
The main debate in intellectual life during the Middle Ages was whether <em>reason</em> could be applied to <em>faith</em>. This led to a reexploration of Platonic ideals and advances in philosophy and theology. Law was also developed through an advance of<em> Roman law</em> into areas previously dominated by <em>customary law</em>. Vernacular literature increased, even though education remained mostly a privilege of the future clergy.
<em>Scholasticism</em> is primarily a method of learning that places emphasis on <em>dialectical reasoning</em> (deciding between opposites or contradictions through logic). This method of critical thought dominated medieval universities and arose as a need to reconcile the different traditions of knowledge that existed in medieval times.
- What does the statement “pygmies standing on the shoulders of giants” mean when applied to the intellectuals of the Middle Ages and Scholasticism?
The phrase “standing on the shoulders of giants” refers to people who make some advancement in knowledge thanks to the work of previous scholars. In this case, the addition of the word “pygmy,” which refers to very small humans, implied that Medieval advancements were very limited when compared to the advancements of the <em>Classical period</em>.

There are three major reasons why people immigrate to other countries: work, love and war. In the late 1800s, immigrants in the United States tried to assimilate with the current populations by learning to speak English and adopting current American cultures and traditions. This is known as the process of Americanization. The idea is that immigrants end up sharing the "American" values, customs and beliefs. The idea behind Americanization is that people who share common values and ideals will contribute to a common cause or goal. This is also known as patriotism.

Answer:
The renewal of an advisory contract under different terms than the preceding contract requires that a revised brochure must be given to the customer at, prior to, contract renewal
.
Explanation:
First, we need to define a term called ADV part 2A: Form ADV is a form used by investment advisers to register with the Securities commission and Exchange Commission (SEC) and state securities authorities.
There is no requirement to file an ADV Part 2A with a balance sheet promptly unless the adviser for the first time will accept $1,200 or more of prepaid fees, 6 months or more in advance of services rendered.
The "2-Day Free Look" at the "Brochure" is only required under NASAA rules for customers that are signing an advisory contract with that adviser for the first time - so it only applies to State-registered advisers, not to Federal Covered Advisers.
