    'Stasiland' by Anna Funder is an account. In this study she interprets an ignored history of everyday people from East Germany through interviewing and collecting stories of witnesses. In many sections of Stasiland, positivity is demonstrated through victims courageous stories, however a sense of loss is always present, overshadowing the optimism displayed in the final chapter. This feeling of grief which belies through the book is shown through Miriam who loses her freedom at age 16 and later in life her husband Charlie, Frau Paul who loses her son and Klaus whose career is lost thanks to the stasi. The way in which Funder structures her text also creates more of a sense of reflection rather than positivity.…

    Isle Royale

    • 1483 Words

    To listen to the music of the wilderness, is to listen to the howl of the wolf. Man may never fully understand the composer, nor his passion behind each note, but the aura of mystery that surrounds him will forever fill our dreams with wonder and adventure. For centuries, wolves have carried their melodies on a small island in northern Lake Superior, known as Isle Royale. Completely cut off from the mainland, Isle Royale is extremely isolated, with only a handful of human structures and trails. The wolves who reside on the island are not alone, however, accompanied by a native of the cervidae family, the moose (Peterson). Together, these two species, combined with the remote nature of Isle Royale, produce one of the most incredible ecological relationships in the world. Their lives deeply intertwined, the moose and wolves share a unique predator-prey relationship. The moose consume the raw flora of the island, and the wolves feed on the moose without competition from other predators. The distribution of both species is limited to the islands shores, which creates a highly controlled setting. Such an incredible scenario has drawn the attention of biologists and ecologists from around the world. Beginning in 1958 and continuing to present day, the Isle Royale Research Project has intensively researched, documented, and monitored the interaction between the wolf and moose free of human presence (Peterson). The island is the perfect location for a study. In essence the island itself acts as a controlled laboratory, and the researchers can observe the interaction between the species away from human impact.…

    The history of Puerto Rico starts when Christopher Columbus arrived in Puerto Rico in 1493. He instantly called the island San Juan Bautista , but thanks to the gold in the river, it was soon known as Puerto Rico, or "rich port;" and the capital city took the name San Juan. Soon, Puerto Rico was a Spanish colony on its way to becoming an important military outpost.…

    Puerto Rico has been a U.S. territory for 115 years, yet Puerto Ricans remain second-class citizens. If it becomes a state, Puerto Ricans will no longer be exempt from Federal income tax and even more people will be forced on to the public’s benefits paid by the government. There are some positive truths to look at also, as journalist Catherine Lozada points out: “Puerto Rico costs the U.S. over $22 billion a year. However, as a state it will contribute nearly $2 billion to the U.S. treasury each year.” There will always be that one question which longs to be answered, and that is: What’s keeping Puerto Rico in Political limbo?…

    New Orleans is nationally known as one of the unique cities ofAmerica. The social construction of this uniqueness began from the city’s establishment by the French. This social identity was progressively built upon when the colony came under the control of the Spanish, and then reverted to French power before being sold to America in the Louisiana Purchase. The presence of these different cultural groups influenced the development of New Orleans economically and culturally giving the city a diverse heritage that is uncommon amongst most American cities.…

    Puerto Rico

    • 6 Pages

    Puerto Rico, an island situated between the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, lies just east of the Dominican Republic. With an area of 9,104 square kilometers (3,515 square miles), Puerto Rico is almost 3 times the size of the state of Rhode Island. As an island commonwealth with a coastline of 501 kilometers (311 miles), Puerto Rico shares no borders with other nations. San Juan, the capital, is located on the northeastern shore of the main island; there are also 3 small islands included in the Commonwealth: Vieques and Culebra to the east and Mona to the west. San Juan's location makes it one of the Caribbean Sea's most valuable ports. The Mona Passage, off Puerto Rico's west shore, is also a crucial shipping route to the Panama Canal. Major cities include Guánica, Playa de Ponce, and Guayanilla, all 3 along the southern coast, in east-to-west order. Puerto Rico's most important cities are port cities, vital to the Puerto Rican economy.…

    Haiti

    Looking at Haiti, one notices that it has been isolated from the world and this has affected its international relations. Historically, Haiti has only come to the limelight when negative things affect the country and it became more prominent in the nineteenth century when a heated debate arose due to the proposal of recognition of Haiti as an independent state (Schuller 2012). Traditionally, Haiti was a slaveholding state and its prominence did not come from the successful revolution but rather the debates between the abolitionists and slave owners who strongly opposed the ideas of abolition of slave trade and slaveholding. Even its recognition as an independent state was problematic as it was only recognized due to its strategic position used by the US for war (Katz 2013).…

    Martinique

    • 425 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Martinique was called Madina and inhabited by Caribs, before Christopher Columbus sighted the island. Three decades later, the first party of French settlers landed on the northwest side of the island. A fort was built, and they settled into what later became the capital, St. Pierre. A year later, a decree authorizing the use of African slaves in the French West Indies was signed. The settlers quickly colonized with the help of slave labor, and constructed the Fort-de-France. Caribs were soon kicked out of the island, and the British took control of Martinique. Martinique prospered under British occupation as they sold only sugar to the British. This occupation allowed Martinique to be away from the French Revolution. After France gained stability, it re-established itself in Martinique, but sugarcane plantation began to waver and aristocrat plantation owners lost their political influence. Schoelcher, a French cabinet minister, who convinced government to sign the Emancipation Proclamation, ended slavery in the Indies. In May 8, 1902, Mont Pelée volcano erupted and destroyed St. Pierre and claimed 30,000 of lives. Shortly after, the capital was moved to Fort-de-France. In 1946, Martinique became an Overseas Department of France, and later it assimilated into the political fold as a Department of France. In 2007, Hurricane Dean wiped out the banana crop, and left damages of 240 million and killed 2 people. And some of the hotels have shut their door due to the hurricane, it is uncertain if they will reopen again.…

    St. Augustine

    • 1874 Words
    • 8 Pages

    St. Augustine of Hippo is one of the most influential men when it comes to the Christian faith. When walking the Christianity section of a bookstore today, one can find mountains of books either by or about him. After seeing so much on the man it leads one to wonder who exactly was St. Augustine of Hippo and why exactly was he important to the church. St. Augustine is not just studied in religious aspects but in philosophy as well. Augustine was born in 354 in Roman Africa. His father, Patricius, was a pagan, and his mother, Monica, was Christian. Scholars believe that Augustine 's ancestors included Berbers, Latins and Phoenicians (Portalle). Augustine 's family name, Aurelius, suggests that his father 's ancestors were freedmen of the gens Aurelia given full Roman citizenship by the Edict of Caracalla in 212. Augustine 's family had been Roman, from a legal standpoint, for at least a century when he was born. It is assumed that his mother, Monica, was of Berber origin, on the basis of her name, but as his family were honestiores, Augustine 's first language is likely to have been Latin (Portalle). At the age of eleven, he was sent to school at Madaurus, a small Numidian city about nineteen miles south of Thagaste. There he became familiar with Latin literature, as well as pagan beliefs and practices (Portalle). While at home in 369 and 370, he read Cicero 's dialogue Hortensius, which he described as leaving a lasting impression on him and sparking his interest in philosophy (unknown).…

Is the crime, is it the economy, is it politics, is it our power shortages? If so I ask that you would please take a step back and realise that the grass is not always greener on the other side.…
