es constitution.
History

Daniel [21]3 years ago

One of the main differences of interpretation between Charles Beard and Carol Berkin is their point of view on the Constitution and the founding fathers.

Charles Beard is the author of An Economic Interpretation of the Constitution of the United States. In this work published in 1913, the author argued that the Constitution of the United States was formulated to serve the interests of wealthy members of the upper class of society.

One of his most controversial statements is his claim about the Founding Fathers, whom he points out as belonging to the upper-class group and who wrote the Constitution to defend their rights and interests.

On the other hand, Carol Berkin is the author of the book The Bill of Rights: The Fight to Secure America's Liberties, published in 2015. In this book, she exposes her interpretation of the process of creation of the Declaration of Independence and the Declaration of Rights.

Her interpretation of these historical events is framed in a vision of the founding fathers as mere mortals who ignored the possibility that the new government they were building would last for many years.

Based on the above, it can be inferred that Carol Berkin and Charles Beard have different views of the Constitution and the founding fathers such as:

  • Charles considers that they wrote the constitution for their convenience.
  • Carol describes them as ordinary people who wanted to change their situation and establish a government for all.

Materia Medica is the Latin term for collected knowledge about healing substances. The Tang Materia medica was written circa 659 CE and it is one of many contributions by the Tang dynasty to science. The book, published by the then ruling Chinese government, is a compilation of drugs and instructions for their use. The book has 54 volumes, divided into 3 parts:

  • The Main body (20 volumes) and Table of contents (1 volume).
  • Pictures of medicines (25 volumes) and Table of contents (1 volume).
  • Illustrated description (7 volumes).

After it was published and distributed throughout the country by the Tang government, it became the national basis for the medical practice for more than 400 years.

Whose election to the presidency marked a beginning of the reduction of Cherokee rights?
Natali5045456 [20]
Jackson--his presidency was marked by the Indian Removal Act and forced migration of the Cherokee people. 

Jackson supported the right of white men to land access in the Southeast. Though the Cherokee had assimilated, owned land, and had created a democratic government they were still not white and therefore not fully accepted by the American people or society. Jackson supported Georgia's efforts to relocate the Cherokee which led to the Trail of Tears and relocation to Indian Territory now the state of Oklahoma.
