    Humanities 101 Learning Activity 8

    It is hard to imagine going back in time 500 years ago, however, I’m sure how so many 500 years ago from right now felt too, hard to imagine, right? There is so much that has changed in the last 500 years, it is nearly impossible to imagine what life was like there on the ground floor of 2013. They say that hindsight is 20-20, and I think that a couple words that would describe the current age would be hedonism and selfishness. 2013 was time where people wanted to do whatever pleased them most without any consequences. They cared less about other people than they did the environment and protecting their own feelings from every little thing. It was a time when everyone felt as though they either were or should’ve been an exception to the rule, which rule? Basically any and all of them. It had become a very partisan time, and those who didn’t fit into the liberal mold were cast aside, ridiculed and thusly their integrity was stripped from them unduly. It was a time where up was down and down was up, people were venerated for bad behavior and those who chose to do the right things were treated like criminals. Everyone wanted to take from the system and upon receiving it would turn around and bite the hand that fed them. People are wanting more and more from their government and giving less and less back to it. This is becoming dangerous close to a serious financial breakdown. This was a time of entitlement; so many people seemed to feel that they were due something from just about everyone regardless of whether or not they deserved it, or earned it. This is just perspective from a humble historians opinion, but 2013 was definitely backwards in time.…

    Ancient Roman Laws

    The Julian Marriage laws were very specific and determined. Emperor Augustus notice social problems at Rome, and he detected that extravagance and adultery were very common in the Roman Government. In the upper classes, marriages varied; and when people did marry, they didn‘t create children. After this issue was found, Augustus brought both the morals and the numbers of the upper classes in Rome together by increasing the population of native Italians in Italy. He did this by creating laws to encourage marriage and having children, and started laws to make the act of adultery a crime. Some of the laws created by Augustus included that men must marry. This law was to help the Roman Government gain a bigger population from the children of all the married couples. To enforce this law, he gave what was called prizes for having children and marrying. Although they were based on marriage, the major role in this law was adultery. These prizes were mainly tax reductions and awards. Since more males existed than females among the nobility, he allowed anyone that had wanted to marry freedwomen, and said that births of children in these marriages would be legal and rightful. He made new laws and changed some of the old ones, for example, the sumptuary law. Laws like the sumptuary law were on a basis of adultery. There were many consequences of adultery in the Roman Empire. These consequences were mainly involved with killings. One of the laws stated that a husband who finds his wife in adultery could only kill the adulterer when…
