We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

How does the rhetorical language and structure of the preamble influence its purpose, meaning, and tone? Cite evidence from the text as well as from the video you watched about the preamble to the Constitution.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The preamble of the constitution helps give organization in the introduction

Explanation:

The language in it makes it proffesional which outgives its meaning even more

Answer 2

Answer:

The preamble begins with the phrase "We the People of the United States" to project a unifying and equalizing viewpoint of the citizens of the United States. For example, the authors could have chosen instead to say “We the Framers of the United States.” However, the choice of “We the People” imbues the purpose and goal of the new government—to promote equality, justice, and political representation for Americans—into the actual rhetoric of the document. The video about the preamble describes this point as well. “We the People” includes all Americans, making the Constitution an empowering document for the American people.

The preamble to the Constitution is relatively brief and to the point. The main clause in the preamble states the general purpose of the Constitution: “We the People of the United States . . . do ordain and establish the Constitution for the United States of America.” However, considering this statement doesn’t include information about the ambitions of the new government, the authors include a significant nonessential prepositional phrase to reveal the aspirations of the new nation: ". . . in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity. . . ."

The preamble also contains a logical and direct tone, highlighting the authors' focus on using reason to legitimize the purpose and reputation of the new government.

list 3 different ways the age of exploration changed things.

Answers

1. IT PAVED THE WAY FOR THE MODERN-DAY AMERICAN COWBOY.

Long before Western cowboys and their trusty steeds herded cattle, there weren’t any horses or cows in the Americas. But in 1492, Columbus established a settlement on the Caribbean island of Hispaniola. The following year, the explorer returned to the island, and brought longhorn cattle and horses with him.

Soon after, in 1519, Spanish explorer Hernán Cortés and his soldiers arrived in what’s today called Mexico, their sights set on conquering the wealthy Aztec empire. They, too, brought horses and the Spanish eventually established ranches and imported cattle to Mexico and the Caribbean. These animals eventually made their way to the present-day United States, paving the way for westward expansion and—yes—the emergence of the American cowboy.

2. IT REDEFINED WHAT IT MEANT TO BE WEALTHY.

The influx of gold and silver from the New World shook the foundations of the European economy to its core. Where land ownership—and the rents charged by landowners—once determined wealth, the arrival of large quantities of gold and silver, both of which had formerly been in short supply, caused prices to skyrocket. This dramatic shift is what historians refer to as “The Price Revolution”: Landlords on fixed incomes suffered as the value of their incomes dropped and the debts owed to them also shrank. Trade soon replaced land-ownership as the most expedient way to achieve wealth.

3. IT TURNED THE WORLD ON TO TOBACCO.

For better or worse, the Age of Exploration introduced modern European civilization to the practice of smoking. When Columbus arrived in the Bahamas in 1492, residents of the island of San Salvador gave the explorer a gift of dry tobacco leaves. Columbus didn’t understand their purpose, and threw them overboard. Later, he’d write that the locals “drank smoke.” Soon after, Columbus and his expedition arrived in Cuba, where locals also practiced the curious custom. Two members tried it for themselves, and reportedly became hooked.

In subsequent years, other European explorers encountered tobacco, and in the 1550s, tobacco seeds arrived in Spain and Portugal. Europeans used the leaf for medicinal purposes—and eventually, recreational ones. Meanwhile, the Spanish fed Europe’s cravings by cultivating the leaf; they controlled the tobacco trade until the 17th century, when John Rolfe of the Virginia Colony first shipped tobacco to England.

What is deism and how did it offer an alternative viewpoint for the relationship between the natural world and god?

Answers

Answer:

Deism (/ˈdiːɪzəm/ DEE-iz-əm [1][2] or /ˈdeɪ.ɪzəm/ DAY-iz-əm; derived

from Latin "deus" meaning "god") is the philosophical position that rejects revelation as a source of religious knowledge and asserts that reason and observation of the natural world are sufficient to establish the existence of a Supreme Being or creator of the universe.[3][4][5]

At least as far back as Thomas Aquinas, Christian thought has recognized two sources of knowledge of God: revelation and "natural reason". The study of the truths revealed by reason is called natural theology. During the Age of Enlightenment, especially in Britain and France, philosophers began to reject revelation as a source of knowledge and to appeal only to truths that they felt could be established by reason alone. Such philosophers were called "deists" and the philosophical position that they advocated is called "deism".

Deism as a distinct intellectual movement declined toward the end of the 18th century. Some of its tenets continued to live on as part of other intellectual movements, like Unitarianism, and it continues to have advocates today.
