How did the mistress outdo her husband? Explain.

rodikova [14]

The mistress, Mrs. Auld outdid her husband when her she changed from being kind to Frederick Douglass to being harsh and cruel. She also stopped educating him.

<h3>Who is the Mistress?</h3>

The Mistress in question is Mrs. Auld for whom the slave Frederick Douglass worked.

Initially, she viewed all as equal and treated Douglass with respect until she was told by her husband to stop teaching Douglass how to read and treating him with kindness.

Suddenly, her kindness towards Frederick changed to cruelty to the point of outdoing her husband.

Was the British colonization of India a force for evil or was it a force for good?

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

Northern Ireland (importing Protestant Scots...why?)

South Africa (1st concentration camps to contain Boers in 2nd war)

India (salt tax, EIC financing local wars using revenue from the Bengal Presidency, buying Indian cotton--preventing textile industry in India--selling finished cloth back to India, administrating Muslim, Hindu, and Sikh populations in the same colony)

China (importing opium from India -- only Communists fixed problem by executing addicts)

Australia/United States (used to dump unwanted Brits, handing out smallpox-ridden blankets to Native Americans)

Africa (like India...administrating hostile tribes into same colony & buying raw products--selling finished products to colony, pivotal actor in the 'Scramble for Africa')

Trading allegiance for support for both the state of Israel AND Palestine at the same time (1915)

Anglicizing strategic locations (Gibraltar, Falklands, Singapore, Hong Kong, etc. to the consternation of nearby nations)

AND finally, why are there so many artifacts from other countries in British museums?

Good? Hmm...the only thing I can think of is positive byproducts (modernization or military/economic assistance today, mediation in political conflicts) of the damage caused in the past.

Now, many of the evils perpetuated upon the world by Great Britain have been copied, or initiated by others (Imperial China, France, Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, Italy, Germany, Russia, Ottomans, Austro-Hungaria, United States, Japan, Communist China, etc.)

Who discovered Mars? When? How? Where?

Ray Of Light [21]

Tycho Brahe

1609
Johannes Kepler (1571 - 1630), a student of Tycho Brahe, publishes Astronomia Nova (New Astronomy), which contain his first two laws of planetary motion. Kepler's first law assumes that Mars has an elliptical orbit, which was a revolutionary idea at the time. Until then, the classical belief held that a circle was perfect, and therefore all orbits must be circular.

1609
Galileo Galilei (1564 - 1642) observes Mars with a primitive telescope, becoming the first person to use it for astronomical purposes.

1659
The Dutch astronomer Christiaan Huygens (1629 - 1695) draws Mars using an advanced telescope of his own design. He records a large, dark spot on Mars, probably Syrtis Major. He notices that the spot returns to the same position at the same time the next day, and calculates that Mars has a 24 hour period.

1666
Giovanni Cassini (1625 - 1712) observes Mars and determines that the rotational period, or length of one Mars day is 24h, 40m.

1672
Huygens is the first to notice a white spot at the south pole, probably the southern polar cap.

1698
Huygens publishes Cosmotheros, which discusses what is required of a planet to support life, and speculates about intelligent extraterrestrials. This is one of the first published expositions of extraterrestrial life.

Historical Perspective...

The Trial of Galileo

The 1600s were not an easy time in which to study science. The church was a powerful institution and had its own ideas about the nature of the universe. Galileo was a beliver in the Copernican theory that the solar system revolves around the sun. He was advised by Cardinal Bellarmino to be cautious and not to imply the the Copernican theory were real. He published a book, Siderius Nuncius (Starry Messenger) which was considered controversial and in opposition with the ideas of the Roman Catholic Church, and was arrested and tried in the Inquisition. Galileo was found guilty of heresy and was sentenced to life imprisonment and forced to recant. In secret, he wrote another book, which was smuggled out of the country and published in France. His work is now considered the foundation of modern physics.
