Download or read book The Federalist Papers written by Alexander Hamilton and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2018-08-20 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classic Books Library presents this brand new edition of “The Federalist Papers”, a collection of separate essays and articles compiled in 1788 by Alexander Hamilton. Following the United States Declaration of Independence in 1776, the governing doctrines and policies of the States lacked cohesion. “The Federalist”, as it was previously known, was constructed by American statesman Alexander Hamilton, and was intended to catalyse the ratification of the United States Constitution. Hamilton recruited fellow statesmen James Madison Jr., and John Jay to write papers for the compendium, and the three are known as some of the Founding Fathers of the United States. Alexander Hamilton (c. 1755–1804) was an American lawyer, journalist and highly influential government official. He also served as a Senior Officer in the Army between 1799-1800 and founded the Federalist Party, the system that governed the nation’s finances. His contributions to the Constitution and leadership made a significant and lasting impact on the early development of the nation of the United States.

Download or read book Urban Space and Aristocratic Power in Late Antique Rome written by Carlos Machado and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2019-10-24 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 270 and 535 AD the city of Rome experienced dramatic changes. The once glorious imperial capital was transformed into the much humbler centre of western Christendom in a process that redefined its political importance, size, and identity. Urban Space and Aristocratic Power in Late Antique Rome examines these transformations by focusing on the city's powerful elite, the senatorial aristocracy, and exploring their involvement in a process of urban change that would mark the end of the ancient world and the birth of the Middle Ages in the eyes of contemporaries and modern scholars. It argues that the late antique history of Rome cannot be described as merely a product of decline; instead, it was a product of the dynamic social and cultural forces that made the city relevant at a time of unprecedented historical changes. Combining the city's unique literary, epigraphic, and archaeological record, the volume offers a detailed examination of aspects of city life as diverse as its administration, public building, rituals, housing, and religious life to show how the late Roman aristocracy gave a new shape and meaning to urban space, identifying itself with the largest city in the Mediterranean world to an extent unparalleled since the end of the Republican period.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2017 in the subject History - Basics, grade: 1, course: Cultural History, language: English, abstract: This paper aims at the task a historian has to do before publishing a scientific paper. All writing assignments are intended to be read, and the intended audience should always determine what is written. History is no different. Any account, report, or other piece of historical writing is intended to take effect on someone at some time. It must consequently meet someone's demands.Those demands can for convenience be summed up in a pair of questions: Is the account true, reliable, complete? Is it clear, orderly, easy to grasp and remember? All the devices and methods that the researcher combines under the name of technique exist to satisfy these inescapable requirements. An understanding of this technique comprises the steps taken in the process of writing history and the guiding principle albeit not codified in a single document. It therefore suggests that the task before a Historian is a big one, which starts with the conception of his subject idea and ends when the last word has been spelt out. On whichever theme a historical research seeks to address it is usually based on primary sources and a thorough reading of secondary sources. The available materials are the huge mass of words bearing on innumerable topics and subtopics within the subject. Whenever possible research should be traced back to the primary sources. Primary sources are the texts nearest to any subject of investigation; secondary sources are always written about primary sources. The most common primary sources are written documents. But primary sources can also include photographs, paintings, sculpture, architecture, oral interviews, statistical tables, and even geography. A thorough reading of secondary sources will equip the researcher with a sense of interpretation. Needful is it to say that one should not rely upon one secondary source, but to always incorpo
