Propaganda In The Days Of The Republic
In the days of the Republic, full-size statues, busts or what is now recovered of political officials and military commanders were often erected in public places for propaganda. Such an honor was given in commemoration of victories, triumphs and by political achievements. Portraits usually had a dedicatory inscription about the person. If the face who was commemorated with a portrait was found to have committed a shame to the Empire then the portrait would be brought down and destroyed to be replaced by another.

All of these people were shaped and affected by the French Revolution and it is shown in their writings. James Gillary was a renowned British caricaturist and printmaker during the Romantic Period (“James Gillray”). He is known for his ways of using propaganda through his prints.…

    How Did The Great Britain Use Propaganda

    The Great War has produced and displayed many things the world had never seen before. Flamethrowers, poison gas and tanks were the inventions of the time, but starting at that point, began the rise of what goes by the name of propaganda. For the first time propaganda had an impact on war and the sneaky way countries managed to manipulate their citizens. This form of mind control was commonplace during World War I as many citizens began to follow how they could assist their countries, either good or bad. Due to the brainwash effect propaganda can produce, many of the world powers in World War I used for the means of gaining pecuniary, pride, recruitment, and shaping public opinion for the countries’ shady tactics.…

    The persecution and genocide of the Jews utilized the relocation of them to ghettos, the creation of laws to strip the Jews of their rights, the use of efficient technology, and propaganda.

    The Republic: The Noble Lie

    The Republic: The Noble Lie

    Frederick Nietzsche once wrote that the “untruth, [or lie], is a condition of life.”At least in terms of creating a stable society, Socrates would seem to agree. In The Republic, Socrates points out that civilization is most prone to instability when founded on what he calls a“noble lie.”The lie which, despite its falsehood, serves for the good of society. His noble lie can be broken into two parts: a justification on why the lie applies to all of a society's members and a justification of the role each person serves in their society. Thus, if subjects believe in his noble lie, instability is abated because those who end up in the working class will be given simple reasoning for why they are where they are in society. That is to say, discontent will be diminished because the noble lie gives reasoning for why those in power are in power. The lie is noble in its attempt to achieve a greater good; however, the lie also contains truth due to the fact that, theoretically, it enables those who should be in power to be in power. The concept of the noble lie can be further expanded as its premise, a societal truth founded on a falsehood, can be applied to many different aspects of society. For instance, many people in the U.S. believe that America is a completely democratic country because that is the noble lie they are told, yet many aspects of American society, such as the disenfranchisement of felons, suggest just the opposite.…

    Critique of The Birth of the Republic

    In his book, The Birth of the Republic, Edmund S. Morgan puts forth an account of the quarter century span, from 1763-1789, in which the American Republic was born. This work provides a detailed description of what historians call “The Revolutionary Era” in American history. Morgan seems to be making the argument that while the revolution may have begun for economic reasons, and that the founding fathers may have stood to gain financially from it, it eventually became about more than just money and economics. The revolution became about the fight for equality of all men.…

    The Republic: The Fall Of The Republic

    I think that this fight between the Patricians and the Plebeians prompted the downfall of the Republic. Nobody was happy with their situation. The Patricians wanted to keep their power and not give anything up to other civilizations or even people of their own society. However, this created a lack of resources and opportunities for the Plebeians, who then caused turmoil for the Patricians. Their solution was to redistribute land and wealth to the poor people, but the lack of cooperation eventually led to the downfall of the system. There are many parallels between the Republic and today. Some people feel that they don’t have as much material things or rights as they deserve, so they protest against it, as did the Plebeians in the Republic. For instance, to bring money to the poor some people suggest that through taxes or whatever, money should be taken from those who are richer and used to help those who don’t have much money. We saw this in the textbook when people in the Republic wanted land from those who had a lot of land to be given to those who didn’t have any. Yet, just as it was in the Republic, today this is contested very strongly by people who believe that things should stay the same or another solution should be used.…
