Download or read book Eight Controversial Questions of History written by Bob Doti and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2024-04-24 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is history written by the victors? It should not be. Nor should it be based on opinions, but what do writers in the field tell us about the questions we are posing? We will not engage in conspiracy theory but facts to discuss these questions. We will look at everyone, from Pat Buchanan to the writings of Joseph Stalin, to answer the eight controversial questions of history. Did the Treaty of Versailles trigger German extremism? Did the British policy of appeasement toward Germany before WW2 help trigger the Cold War after WW2? Is isolationism a good policy or not? Why didn't Canada revolt in 1776 with the US? Could the takeover by the communists in Russia have been prevented? Did Mao want to fight the USA in the Korean War? Did FDR act out of racial animus with Japanese internment? Did Reagan accelerate or hinder the end of the Cold War? Indeed, in writing history, it constantly undergoes revision as new primary documents or new perspectives from secondary sources emerge, as the historians constantly write to this day. This new perspective, as the culture changes, informs us better. These questions concern the current world we live in for the rest of our lives. So this is not the final word on these questions Eight essays have four themes: war and peace, nationalism and imperialism, democracy and dictatorship, and impactful presidents and controversy.

Download or read book Fault Lines and Controversies in the Study of Seventeenth century English Literature written by Claude J. Summers and published by University of Missouri Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by various experts in the field, this volume of thirteen original essays explores some of the most significant theoretical and practical fault lines and controversies in seventeenth-century English literature. The turn into the twenty-first century is an appropriate time to take stock of the state of the field, and, as part of that stocktaking, the need arises to assess both where literary study of the early modern period has been and where it might desirably go. Hence, many of the essays in this collection look both backward and forward. They chart the changes in the field over the past half century, while also looking forward to more change in the future.

Book excerpt: "Powerline describes the opposition of rural Minnesotans to the building of a high voltage powerline across 430 miles of farmland from central North Dakota to the Twin Cities suburbs. Convinced that the safety of their families and the health of their land was disregarded in favor of the gluttonous energy consumption of cities, the farmer-led revolt began as questioning and escalated to rampant civil disobedience, peaking in 1978 when nearly half of Minnesota's state highway patrol was engaged in stopping sabotage of the project."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
