Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Heritage From the Old World In the, treatment of causes leading up to great historical events emphasis has been placed upon the growth of sentiment as the motive agent behind the development of such events. Scenes and situations are pictured as results of such sentiment and not merely as detached episodes. History is life as it is lived. I t is dynamic. Historic events have depended upon prevailing ideas. The text has tried to catch and transmit the spirit of those ideas. Even if there followed no immediate event, the event was, as we may say, assembling itself. History has both form and content. The content or idea finally shapes itself in form or event. In every instance where it is possible past historic movements have been linked with the present, showing either contrast or similarity, but above all showing how the influence of such movements has reached and enriched our own times.

This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Old World an European Background to the Story of Our Country All of old-vvorld history is the New World's heritage; no historian dare assert in regard to the most remote and seemingly insignificant occur rence of ancient record that it had no influence upon the course of later human events. But there are certain events connected with earlier human progress that have had a direct and easily traceable influence upon our New - World destinies; a knowledge of these is essential to a full under standing and enjoyment of the story of our country. A committee of eight eminent teachers, report ing upon the study of American history in our schools, has declared that too much emphasis is placed upon the Atlantic Ocean as a barrier be tween the history of the New World and that of the Old. This book is written to meet that criticism. It is not a condensed general his tory. It is, in reality, the story of our country carried beyond and behind that wall habitually erected by earlier school historians upon the borders of the Atlantic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from America's Race Heritage: An Account of the Diffusion of Ancestral Stocks in the United States During Three Centuries of National Expansion and a Discussion of Its Significance It must not be forgotten that English thought, laws and government permeated the land from the arrival of the Mayflower up to the present day. Anglo-saxon civ ilization actually gained a new stimulus by the defiance of a weak and unscrupulous monarch in 1776, and today the Englishman and the American are approaching the goal of perfect mutual and reciprocal relations tending to the welfare not alone of anglo-saxon communities, but also of the whole world. The present frontiers of the American people lie in the expansion of our influence in world affairs for the betterment of all mankind.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Daughters of America: Or, Women of the Century America has been richly blessed in its women, as well as its men, of patriotism, intelligence, usefulness, and moral worth. Indeed, it has been a marvel to many in the Old World, that the women of the New have been in many instances so thoroughly cultured, so admirably developed morally and intellectually, amid so much that was new and therefore crude in society, and in a freedom which the women of European nations have never enjoyed, and of which those of Asiatic peoples never dreamed. A cultured Christian women of English birth and education, but now in a lovely Scottish home, wrote to the writer of this volume, that, when visiting America, that which she most enjoyed "was the sense of freedom," - a freedom which has been the high privilege of the women of our first century, and will be yet more the glorious heritage of the women of the second, as the ripened fruit is garnered from the promise-blossom. "It seemed to me," wrote the lady above mentioned, "that by that freedom I was lifted up to a larger and diviner life, and a tender and reverent expectation of glorious possibilities for our race, and especially for women."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Columbus Quincentennial Projects: A Directory The landing of Columbus and his men in the New World ushered in 500 years of events unparalleled in history. It led to the emigration of millions of people, and the development of our Nation. The legacy of that voyage is modern America, unique among the nations of the world. An Italian captain and Spanish crew, forever connecting the New World with the Old World, set the foundation for this diversity. Over the next 500 years countless voyages followed-by those seeking adventure, religious and political freedom, and a better life for themselves and their families. Whether our ancestors crossed that long lost land bridge connecting America with Asia, sailed on the Mayflower, or immigrated through Ellis Island or some other port of entry, all have contributed to the historic and cultural heritage of America. Even those who are new to America's shore are adding to the national experience. This is a time for all Americans to rejoice in the diversity of our Nation. For all that has transpired over the past 500 years, let us never lose sight of the fact that America represents the best hopes of mankind-freedom and opportunity. Let that be the legacy of christopher-columbus, and the crews of the Nina, Pinta, and Santa Maria. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Old World Empires written by Ilhan Niaz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-03-26 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a sweeping historical survey of the origins, development and nature of state power. It demonstrates that Eurasia is home to a dominant tradition of arbitrary rule mediated through military, civil and ecclesiastical servants and a marginal tradition of representative and responsible government through autonomous institutions. The former tradition finds expression in hierarchically organized and ideologically legitimated continental bureaucratic states while the latter manifests itself in the state of laws. In recent times, the marginal tradition has gained in popularity and has led to continental bureaucratic states attempting to introduce democratic and constitutional reforms. These attempts have rarely altered the actual manner in which power is exercised by the state and its elites given the deeper and historically rooted experience of arbitrary rule. Far from being remote, the arbitrary culture of power that emerged in many parts of the world continues to shape the fortunes of states. To ignore this culture of power and the historical circumstances that have shaped it comes at a high price, as indicated by the ongoing democratic recession and erosion of liberal norms within states that are democracies.

Download or read book Our Heritage written by Tsenay Serequeberhan and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2000 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this compelling and engaging work, Tsenay Serequeberhan discusses recent attempts to define African philosophy and the practice of hermeneutics for articulating a philosophy that is distinctively African. Pressing into service insights derived from Marx, Nietzsche, Levinas, Fanon, and others, Serequeberhan analyzes the question of how we relate to our past (i.e., our heritage) and the open possibilities of our future. He carefully examines the variety of approaches to African philosophy and argues for a historically engaged and existentially attuned paradigm shift. The result is an approach that explores the contemporary situation of African and African-American existence in view of emancipatory struggles that have established the confines of the present.
