    While reading Three articles concerning the collapse of the maya civilization, I read about debates why the civilization fell apart. Ancient Mayan empire was approximately A.D 250 to A.D 900. The mayan Civilization once extended through out the area of Texas, southern Mexico, and Northern Central America, This includes the countries of Guatemala, Belize, El Salvador, and Honduras. The mayans was a very advanced civilization they had a break through in astronomy which helped them predict where the moon and planets would lay in the sky. The mayans left behind stone inscriptions and books regarding their gods, which taught us a lot about the mayan empire. A common reason the empire collapsed was drought which stopped the mayans from agriculture, and many more examples of the falling of the empire.…

    It is always said that we are all predestined with a set prophecy. No matter how much one tries to escape it, our fate will always conquer. Whether it’s finding the right person who you are going to marry or the career path a person chooses, it’s all up to the decision of fate. Knowing ones fate can either uplift or destroy a person because of the path it permits the person to take. Oedipus Rex by Sophocles is a prime example of how one’s fate destroys him and he couldn’t escape it. Oedipus being the main character, gains knowledge of his horrid fate and attempts to break away from it. Because Oedipus gains knowledge of his fate and does try and run from it, he mistakenly kills his father and marries his mother, denies the truth, and blinds himself.…

    The mythical narratives of the ancient Greeks and the Romans constitute a continuous tradition that extends from before the reach of history to the present day. Myths survive in literary texts and visual art because their narratives have continued to prove compelling and fascinating in different languages, historical eras, and social contexts (the myths of Odysseus, Heracles, and Oedipus are just a few examples). Literature and art of all kinds have been inspired to retell and represent their stories, while the search for the meaning of mythic stories has informed and profoundly influenced a great range of intellectual disciplines including literary criticism, anthropology, and psychoanalysis. In these ways, myths have and continue to exercise a fundamental influence on western culture and, in consequence, even today they maintain a certain cosy familiarity. On the other hand, the historical contexts in which the Greeks and Romans told and retold these mythical narratives are to us in the twenty-first century culturally alien and unfamiliar.…

    Firstly, residential and parliamentary systems have different individuals as head of state and head of government (342). Presidents and prime ministers are considered to be heads of government, but while presidents are also heads of State, prime ministers are not. The head of state in a parliamentary system is symbolic, and “carries out a variety of official functions but is expected to be ‘above’ politics and thus is not usually involved in making governing for a country” (342). For example, in Canada the governor general, as a representative of the Queen, holds the role of head of state on a federal level, and the lieutenant-governors hold it on a provincial level. While these individuals do not have power in terms of law-making procedures and are not involved in elections or politics in general, the governor general does…

    Humanities can defined as the totality of human being, or the investigation of the natural human processes and social relationships (Webster online). Looking around the world today it is interesting to think about the events of the world that have paved the road for what exists today. Many changes took place in fourteenth century and beyond that helped to shape today’s views of religion, education, politics, and socioeconomics. The purpose of this paper is to gain an understanding of what humanities is, and how the past is reflected in the present.…

    The Music I associate with from my early childhood would be so many different songs from like the alphabet songs. When I grew up we were not allowed watching TV so much in the 70’s. But we watched some cartoons like the Surf’s on Saturday mornings; I still remember the song Fa-la-la-la. I grew up listing to reggae and oldies but goodies music on my parents little radio in the living room. When I hear these songs I have a smile on my face. It always reminded me when my children was listening to some of the same kind of music either on Television or radio or when they watched cartoons like Old MacDonald or Bitsy Spider with the same good old folk rhymes.…

    From my own views humanities is the study of humans from different time frames and the cultures and how it changed up until today’s time frame. The development of humanities was established from the modern times when things were done by hand for example farming, when you want fresh food farmers would plant the seed and attend to the farm as needed as far as today’s world artificial food is made and many of it is not health nor does it taste the same. In today’s modern world machines do all the work for you and it has taking away lots of knowledge from today’s society because if machines break down most people would not know how to survive. Also this goes for the different categories such as art/paintings back in the modern day’s paintings where hand painted such as the sisten chapel, it was painted on the celling by man as for today it would most likely be laid by stencil and painted which in that case there’s no hard work put into it. There were significant movements in cultures from the school views as they started out in the ancient Egypt time frame the kids started school at 4yrs old. In ancient Egypt, boys from wealthy families started school at the age of four. Before a child started his first year of school, his father decided what his son's occupation would be in the future. Egyptians were very practical, so kids at schools were taught only the subjects that would be useful in their career. The only boys who were taught mathematics were the ones that were going to be tax collectors. The ability to read and write was considered a very important skill because if you could read and write you could have a well-paid job, and respect of your fellow countrymen. Boys had lessons at the school master's house. They walked there early in the morning carrying a basket with bread cakes and two jugs of beer that their mothers had prepared for lunch. They were dismissed at noon. The lessons consisted of memorization and copying parts of old scripts. The students sat…
