Answer:

Find the explanation below.

Explanation:

1. The primary source which is a telegram from Senator Joseph McCarthy to President Henry S. Truman was meant to raise suspicions of personnel's within the United States government whom he referred to as Communists. This happened at a time when the citizens of the United States were apprehensive about communists because of possible links to the Soviet Union.

2. The author intended that the President take his claims seriously by fishing out the names of those within the State Department whom he claimed were communists, prosecuting them, and possibly relieve them of their services.

3. The Senator was trying to be controversial. He wanted to gain cheap political points and also curry favor with the people so that he can be seen as a Senator that worked hard to prevent threats to the American nation. Then, he would be re-elected by the people in his second term.

4. This telegram helps us to see how certain political leaders can promote policies for their selfish interests and not necessarily for the people. It also shows how tense the relationship between the United States and the Soviet Union was after World War II.

alguien me dice que si ¿consideran que existen elementos historicos de tras de las leyendas? lo necesito para hoy es urgente
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Sí, las leyendas suelen contener elementos históricos, y de hecho, es ésto lo que las diferencia de los mitos. Mientras los mitos no tienen base histórica, y son puramente ficción, las leyendas tienden a tener elementos históricos que se mezclan con elementos fantásticos y ficción.

Explanation:

Por ejemplo, las sagas del Rey Arturo son una leyenda. Sus elementos históricos son las invasiones de anglosajones a la Inglaterra de los siglos V y VI, y el posterior enfrentamiento a los reinos britones que habitaban el lugar.

El elemento de ficción o fantástico es el propio personaje de Arturo, ya que no está comprobada su existencia, y otras cosas tales como el santo grial, o la espada excalibur.
