Summary Of The Letter On Pinny's Villa Magna
Another scholar from a more contemporary setting that is worth mentioning is an architectarchaeologist named Eugenua Salza Prina Ricotti. After so many hypotheses based on the same letter to Gallus, Ricotti decided in 1983 to give her own interpretation of the letter on
Phiny’s Laurentine Villa. She investigated Villa Magna which she found that there are numerous similarities between her initial imaginary restitution, based on a reading of Pliny and the restitution based on the excavation reports.6 Because the location of Villa Magna is too far from what Pliny mentioned, her findings have not won widespread acceptance in the archaeological community, by many archaeologists like Rodolfo Lanciani, Antonio Collini and Marcello

    An investigation was conducted and an expert witness testified on behalf of the Graves stating that “he was baffled at S.E. Downey's conclusion that there was a gap between the southerly boundary of the Graves’s' land and the northerly boundary of MDI High School when every deed in the chain of title stated they were contiguous.” Downey’’s survey had deficiencies on the southern border. The property line was set north of the MDI High School property line creating a space between the two. From reviewing the deed for the Graves property; the property line is touching the MDI High School property line and there should be no gap. Downey by not properly establishing the correct monument to conduct the survey resulted in the property lines being marked further north thus resulting in the Graves to build their home on the park’s…

    Sophocles’ age old play Antigone is about a young girl who fights King Creon’s unjust law for the burial of her brother who was deemed a traitor to their town. With the act of civil disobedience both Antigone and Creon strive for their own justice but in the end meet their fate. A more modern way of civil disobedience would be the strategy that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. used. The steps a person can use to change a law they find unjust are explained in his essay “The Power of Non-Violence” and “The Letter to Birmingham Jail”. Martin Luther King’s theory has four major steps: first finding an injustice exists, negotiation, self-purification and direct action. Although Antigone’s actions against Creon do not completely conform to Marin Luther…

    On April 3rd, 1963, the Birmingham campaign began and people were protesting against racism and injustice. The non-violent campaign was coordinated by King's Southern Christian Leadership Conference and Alabama Christian Movement for Human Rights. However, King was roughly arrested with other main leaders of the campaign on April 12th for disobeying the rules of “no parading, demonstrating, boycotting, trespassing and picketing”. While jailed, King read a letter (“A call for unity”) written by eight white Alabama clergymen against King and his methods from the newspaper. In the letter, the clergymen stated that the campaign were "directed and led in part by outsiders," urging activists to use the courts if rights were being denied rather than to protest. The letter provoked King and “the Letter from Birmingham jail” was a written response to the white clergy men and to defend the strategy of non-violent protesting. Throughout the letter, King used many stylistic writing elements and effective emotional appealing to make people want to join his case.…

    America's War of Independence was a political and military struggle among the thirteen American colonies and England. Since the British defeated the French and their Indian allies in the French and Indian War, the result was British control over much of North America. This was had cost England a great deal of money and Parliament decided it was time for the colonies to pay a share for their own defense. The movement to resist the new imperial policies, a movement for which many people would die for, was thus at the same time democratic and conservative. It was a movement to conserve liberties Americans believe they already possessed. While it would be hard to point to any one event that singularly led to the revolution, there is no doubt that…

    Dear Megan, I am currently reading the book The Outsiders, and while reading I concluded that it would be the perfect fit for you. I have known you for the greater part of my life and you have been in all of my reading/LA classes (up until this year), therefore, I know what kind of books you enjoy and I expect this would be one of them. I trust you would enjoy this book because it has segregation, high stakes, and strong friends and family bonds. I know these are specific qualities that you have enjoyed in previous books, so based on this I believe you should give this one a try! Now before I tell you to just go on and read it, I feel it is necessary for me to give you some background knowledge about this book. The Outsiders features…

    The political split was first formalized by Emperor Diocletian, who split the eastern and western halves of the empire into separate administrations. The splits were institutionalized by Constantine, who moved his capital to the city of Byzantium. He did it because the empire was too big for one seat of administration to manage. Also the Easter (Greek) part of the empire resented the rule of the western (Latin) part of it, so this was also to appease the people of the eastern part of the empire.…

    I think that Mr. Frank would say this because he knew that he wasn’t the only one who was a part of the Holocaust so he thought that he did not deserve the recognition that he got by millions of people as much as anyone else that had to suffer. Also Otto Frank new that he was lucky to have been hiding for 2 years he got more food than most people in the concentration camps and he was able to avoid working long hours and getting sick, tired, killed, or hurt for as long as he could until he was captured. I think that Otto Frank was just trying to keep his family, himself, an others safe for as long as he could. He tutored Anne, Margot, and Peter. He told Anne, “I’ll have to make a…

    Friar Lawrence's Letter

    • 157 Words

    Prompt 1: I think that the right thing for Friar Lawrence to do would be to tell Lord and Lady Capulet. I do not think it is right to make her parents think that she is dead and then have her run off with Romeo. If I was Juliet's parent I would not want to think my daughter was dead when she really is not. The Capulet's would be very sad if they found out that Juliet had faked her death and ran away with Romeo just so she could get out of a marriage. This would have had a big effect on the play. If Friar Lawrence had told Lord and Lady Capulet what was going on Juliet would have married Paris or else she would have actually just killed herself if she had to marry Paris. If Juliet had killed herself then most likely Romeo would have killed himself…
