Why might the modern world be interested in the history, culture, and civilizations of ancient Greece?

History

mel-nik [20]3 years ago

A possible answer could be:

Modern society owes a lot to the ancient Greeks. The lives that they led, their belief system, and even the way they created buildings have left lasting impressions that can still be seen today. For many, ancient Greece is considered to be the cradle of Western civilization. Greek art has had a tremendous influence on the world around us. Think about how many places pillars can be seen in architecture: This is a contribution from the Greeks. The Parthenon is a great example of this style of architecture, and when comparing this structure to something like the White House, the similarities are striking. Outside of architecture, Greek theater is something else that continues to influence the modern world, as the two major genres of theater, comedy and tragedy, were created by the Greeks, forming the basis of modern plays, movies, and TV shows. Today, some art from ancient Greece is still around, including pottery, which gives some indication of what life in Greece may have been like and offers insight into their religious beliefs, including mythology.

Have a great day! :)

Which ways did the great awakening contribute to the independent spirit of american colonists?
wlad13 [49]
The great awakening was about making people individualists when it came to religion. Moving away from institutionalized religion and into the realm of self-reflection and religion being a personal thing. Since the religion was usually tied to the country, making it a personal thing could have implications that governing of a state should be a personal thing, that is that people should not have a monarchy and rather a republic.

How did the house un-American activities committee (HUAC) affect filmmaking
Tju [1.3M]

The House Un-American Acitivities Committee (HUAC) was a federal agency that sought out communism in the United States. The goal was to expose supposed communists or individuals with connections to the Soviet Union.

This had an enormous impact on the filmmaking industry. Filmmakers were sure to produce movies that were extremely patriotic and painted America in a positive light. Along with this, Hollywood filmmakers associated with communism were called into hearings by the government. Ten of these filmmakers refused to answer questions by the HUAC, as they felt their constitutional rights were being violated. These ten filmmakers, now known as the Hollywood Ten, were blacklisted in the industry and their careers were never able to recover.
