Compare and contrast bathing traditions in western Europe, Japan, and Southwest Asia.
olya-2409 [2.1K]

The bathing traditions across the world differ from one another, and there's always a good reason behind it.

Western Europe's bathing tradition is pretty much in the sense of avoiding the bathing as much as possible. People were going for months without bathing. The reason behind that were the diseases, such as the plague, and it was well known that the less hygienic someone is, the lesser the chances of getting a disease because the body will be more resistant.

In Japan, the bathing tradition was seen as a must, as the Japanese had in their culture that they should always be clean, smell nicely, but also it was an act of purifying. So the bathing in Japan, very often with nice smelling plants, was a common thing.

In Southeast Asia, people very bathing constantly, mostly in the rivers and lakes. The reason for that was neither beauty and prestige, nor threat of diseases, but it was practical. The region is hot, the humidity high, so people were and still are bathing multiple times during the day in order to cool off.

Which were causes of the French Revolution? (Select all that apply) A) Crop failures that led to bread shortages and starvation
fgiga [73]

Answer:

A) Crop failures that led to bread shortages and starvation for the poorer classes.

C) Debt accrued by the treasury for its involvement in the American Revolution.

D) France's outdated estates system that gave the upper class too much power.

Explanation:

The French Revolution was the major game-changer of the whole of the French government. The decade-long revolution starting from 1789 to 1799 led to a number of changes in the political, and even social scene of the nation.

The major causes of the French Revolution were the ineffective ruling of the king, Louis XVI. Aside from that, the <u>immense crop failure</u> which led to the increased suffering of the poorer sections of the society led to the uproar. The people demanded changes were required so as to make everyone an equal part of the government. Moreover, their hardships were further led on by the <u>huge debt that France had after its involvement in the American Revolution</u>, which hugely impacted the financial condition. Added to that, the <u>Estates system where the upper class were given more power over the lower class </u>led to a major conflict of interest among the masses. All these factors led to the French revolution.

Thus, the <u>correct answers are options A, C, and D.</u>

Taking into consideration the conservative social and cultural context of the United States in the 1950s, discuss how rock and r
pshichka [43]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

In 1950s , through Rock n Roll, many blacks or African American used the genre of music coupled with R&B to voice their opinions and advocate for civil rights movement.

Rock n Roll was characterized by its youthful and stylistic sound and dance, popularized by the likes of Elvis Presley, with his hip gyration. While it eventually pitted parents, the mass media, and the government against teenagers, it however, helped erode some of the prejudices felt towards African Americans.

Also, while the country and jazz hold sway before and early in the 1950s, the Rock and Roll music was able to trump them later, though dividing in some quarters, it became a uniting force among the youths and coloured people specifically blacks, and eventually was able to create a common culture amongst white and black teenagers, a feat other genres of music couldn't manage at the time.
