Toussaint learned of Africa from his father‚ who had been born a free man there. Toussaint was fortunate in having a liberal master who had him trained as a house servant and allowed him to learn to read and write. He would read books that he could get his hands on.

The question of this investigation is: To what extent did the efforts of Toussaint L’ouverture help the island of Saint Domingue socially‚ politically receive its independence? The Haitian Revolution was a social and political disturbance in the French colony of Saint-Domingue (which shared the island of Hispaniola with the Spanish colony of Santo Domingo) during the period from 1791 to 1804. In 1791‚ slaves and gens de couleur libres (“free people of color”) fought against French rule‚ with the

Personally‚ I found the chapter about Dagoberto Gilb to be extremely interesting to read. The inclusion of pictures in the textbook really allows a reader to get a better understanding of the author before they read the stories. I found “Love in L.A.” to be particularly compelling. The text leading up to the short story provides the reader with insight to Gilb’s life. Gilb’s life is that of a typical working class American. This knowledge provides insight into the meaning and motive behind “Love

Social justice is the distribution of resources and opportunities equally‚ in which there are no factors categorizing the people. The “Black lives matter” is the rallying cry of a movement against racist police violence. The movement is fighting for social justice for black people‚ especially black men. These three words have become the slogan of a powerful movement‚ and in so few words they have the ability to communicate the pain of a group of people whose rights are being violated on a daily basis

The sculpture that I decided to reflect upon is L’Offrande (The Offering) by Robert Wlerick. The sculpture is situated in a grassy meadow area in between the academic buildings of Stein and Beaven. The scale of the piece seems to be larger than life. The proportions of the sculpture are larger than an average sized woman and appears almost like an Amazon woman. The Offering is representational and it depicts a nude woman sitting on a step. It appears the sculpture is made out of bronze and has been

In the prologue of The Go-Between how does L.P Hartley present the relationship between memory and history? The first line of the novel introduces how L.P Hartley intertwines history and memory throughout the narrative. “The past is a foreign country‚ they do things differently there.” in a literal sense‚ Hartley suggests that the past‚ like a foreign country‚ has different customs to present day. A recurring motif throughout the novel‚ the Boer war‚ can historically be connected to this opening

You tackled some really thought-provoking themes in your poems‚ and I think were largely successful in doing so. I think if you just revisit some specific aspects of each piece‚ they could be even stronger. In “L’appel du vide”‚ I thought your poem perfectly captured the feelings associated with the phrase “l’appel du vide”‚ itself. At the beginning‚ your word choices of “shattering”‚ “cut”‚ and “jagged”‚ all of which have negative connotations‚ started to create a darker‚ ominous tone. However
