Theoredical vs Experimental Concepts of Intelligibity between Cavendish and the Anti-Newtonians of France. What is truth? What makes an idea or fact true‚ partially true‚ or false? Does it come from the mind‚ as Plato insisted‚ or experimental evidence‚ as Aristotle believed?

New England vs. Chesapeake While both the people of the New England region and of the Chesapeake region descended from the same English origin‚ by 1700 both regions had traveled in two diverse directions.

The Spanish settlements in the American Southwest in New England of the seventeenth century can be contrasted in primarily two ways. First‚ their politics were based on entirely different ruling classes and systems of government. Second‚ they employed different avenues of economic development.

The New Englanders would come to prosper through their

is interesting to note‚ before anything‚ the similarities between Brave New World and 1984. Firstly and rather obviously‚ they are both prophetic novels‚ they were both written in turbulent times‚ both suffering changes that could revert the future of the world. When 1984 was written‚ the world had just gotten out of a second war and the surprising rise of communism and their totalitarian government was frightening most of the western world. In George Orwell’s novel‚ the main concern seems to be the
