Answer 2

Answer:

John Locke, (born August 29, 1632, Wrington, Somerset, England—died October 28, 1704, High Laver, Essex), an English philosopher whose works lie at the foundation of modern philosophical empiricism and political liberalism. He was an inspirer of both the European Enlightenment and the Constitution of the United States. His philosophical thinking was close to that of the founders of modern science, especially Robert Boyle, Sir Isaac Newton, and other members of the Royal Society. His political thought was grounded in the notion of a social contract between citizens and in the importance of toleration, especially in matters of religion. Much of what he advocated in the realm of politics was accepted in England after the Glorious Revolution of 1688–89 and in the United States after the country's declaration of independence in 1776.

Locke’s family was sympathetic to Puritanism but remained within the Church of England, a situation that colored Locke’s later life and thinking. Raised in Pensford, near Bristol, Locke was 10 years old at the start of the English Civil Wars between the monarchy of Charles I and parliamentary forces under the eventual leadership of Oliver Cromwell. Locke’s father, a lawyer, served as a captain in the cavalry of the parliamentarians and saw some limited action. From an early age, one may thus assume, Locke rejected any claim by the king to have a divine right to rule.

After the first Civil War ended in 1646, Locke’s father was able to obtain for his son, who had shown academic ability, a place at Westminster School in distant London. It was to this already famous institution that Locke went in 1647, at age 14. Although the school had been taken over by the new republican government, its headmaster, Richard Busby (himself a distinguished scholar), was a royalist. For four years Locke remained under Busby’s instruction and control (Busby was a strong disciplinarian who much favored the birch). In January 1649, just half a mile away from Westminster School, Charles was beheaded on the order of Cromwell. The boys were not allowed to attend the execution, though they were undoubtedly well aware of the events taking place nearby.

The curriculum of Westminster centered on Latin, Greek, Hebrew, Arabic, mathematics, and geography. In 1650 Locke was elected a King’s Scholar, an academic honor and financial benefit that enabled him to buy several books, primarily classic texts in Greek and Latin. Although Locke was a good student, he did not enjoy his schooling; in later life, he attacked boarding schools for their overemphasis on corporal punishment and the uncivil behavior of pupils. In his enormously influential work Some Thoughts Concerning Education (1693), he would argue for the superiority of private tutoring for the education of young gentlemen

During the period 800 BCE to 1500 BCE, following the fall of the Roman Empire, Europe seemed to experience a dramatic decline in its cultural growth and development. Meanwhile, life in other parts of the world was no so “Medieval”—those cultures made tremendous advances in science, art, exploration, and scholarship.

What caused this difference between Europe and Africa, Asia, and the Middle East during the Middle Ages? Why do you think other parts of the world experienced “golden ages” during a time when most Europeans struggled through the Dark Ages?

Explain your answer in a thoughtful discussion post, including your reasons for thinking as you do. Then, read some of your classmates' answers and respond to their ideas.

Answers

Answer:

The main difference is the presence of knowledge which made Africa, Asia, and the Middle East more developed and modern during the Middle Ages as compared to Europe because in Europe no importance was given to the knowledge by the people which leads to the development of other nations as compared to dark age of the Europe. Other parts of the world experienced “golden ages” during a time when most of the Europe struggled through the Dark Ages because of knowledge which enables other nations to made better their lives.

During this time, science was observed in the way they interpreted the movements of heavenly bodies to predict seasons and climates, and in organizing days into months and years.

Who was John Adams give me an essay about him.
(100 Points)

Answers

Answer:

On October 30, 1735, John Adams was born to John Adams, Sr. and Susanna Boylston Adams, in Braintree (or what is now called: Quincy), Massachusetts. He was direct descendant of Henry Adams, on his father’s side, and John Alden, on his mother’s side, both of whom were Pilgrims on the Mayflower in 1638 (Biography.com). Attending a local school during his primary education, going to Harvard College with a scholarship, at age sixteen, graduating at age twenty, Adams was well prepared for his future political career and involvement in American Independence. Through his political career, his writings, and his diplomatic skills, John Adams greatly contributed to the formation of the United States government, before, during, and after the Revolutionary War.

John Adam studied law under James Putnam and by 1758 had become one of the most well-known, respected attorneys in Massachusetts (Lossing, 28). Accordingly, in 1772, he was elected to the Massachusetts Legislature, where he defended Thomas Preston during one of the many Boston Massacre trials. A year or two later, Adams was appointed delegate to the First Continental Congress in Philadelphia, in 1774, and again the following year to the Second Continental Congress, in which he nominated George Washington to Commander of the Continental army.
