How does Gillray depict Napoleon in his cartoon? Why do you think a British artist would portray Napoleon in this way?

History

Answer:

‘The enthusiasm is indescribable, when the next drawing appears; it is veritable madness. You have to make your way through the crowd with your fists’.

James Gillray, painted by Charles Turner.

A powerful asset

Caricatures, once a social curiosity, had become powerful political tools. Some of the raunchier London images of French royalty played a major role in the downfall of Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette. Pitt’s Tory government was also acutely aware of the power of satire, and secretly put Gillray on the payroll from 1797.

One of the primary victims of Gillray’s etching knife was Napoleon, who was in no doubt about the potential potency of vindictive cartoons. On exile in Elba, he admitted Gillray’s caricatures were more damaging than a dozen generals.

‘Napoleon Crossing the Alps’, painted by Jacques-Louis David in 1805.

Explain the power of impeachment in your own words
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Impeachment is the process by which a legislative body "puts"/ "or says" that there should be charges on a government official for misconduct.

In terms of Presidential terms, it is like you take them to "court" for them to be kicked out of office for charges against them within the legislative bodies and I believe the people.

Discuss the impact of the trans Atlantic slave trade between west Africa and the americas
Solnce55 [7]

The slave trade increased in the seventeenth century, as more large-scale agricultural production increased the need for labor. The demand for sugar, a highly profitable crop that grew well in various parts of the Americas, continued to grow. And the Europeans introduced large-scale production of indigo, rice, tobacco, coffee, cocoa, and cotton. Imports of African slaves increased over the latter half of the 17th century and into the 18th. Approximately 1.3 million slaves were exported on the trans-Atlantic route in the 17th century; over 6 million were exported in the 18th century.
