Auguste Rodin’s The Burghers of Calas is probably among my top ten favorite sculptures. It is a thing of beauty and I was awestruck the first time I saw it in person.
How does this particular sculpture differ from earlier European sculptures/monuments?

I need you to write a short essay using the reading attached (Clarence-Smith). You need to choose one of the following questions to answer in the thesis (with 3 reasons) and each body paragraph has a topic sentence with 1 of those 3 reasons:
1)    After reading this article, do you agree with Bernard Lewis that “Islamic abolitionism is a contradiction in terms?”
2)    Based on your readings, including this one, how useful is Marshall Hodgson’s idea of “Islamicate” culture (the culture associated with, but not necessarily derived from, Islam), in understanding slavery in Arabia?
3)    What were the main arguments used by Islamic “Modernists” in opposing or limiting slavery in Islamic societies?
4)    Overall, which factor was more important in Islamic abolitionism – intellectual trends within Islam, or external pressure from European powers?
You need to have an introduction, 3 body paragraphs, and a conclusion. You need to include evidence/quotes from the reading. I have attached the rubric and an essay I wrote from a previous reading for reference(Hunwick Narrative).

My topic is from the theme Material Culture, something related to Jade in pre-modern and the title is (The Controversial Significance of Jade in Pre-Modern China) -> for example, one controversial topic that has been discussed is the extent of jade’s influence on social hierarchies and power structures.
Some scholars argue that jade played a significant role in reinforcing social hierarchies, with its ownership limited to the elite class. They believe that the display of exquisite jade objects during important events and ceremonies served to emphasize the wealth and prestige of the ruling class, further perpetuating social inequality.

Examining at least four episodes mentioned in the book across at least 3 continents, answer whether you agree with the thesis of the work about the ideological nature of the Cold War in the Third World.

During this era the culture was changing. Christmas and Thanksgiving became national holidays (THANK YOU PRESIDENT GRANT). Other holidays and special days would be created, some to make certain immigrant groups feel a part of this country. We now have all sorts of special months or days designed to help American society become more inclusive.
Take one of these days, or months, and find out the beginnings of its celebration in the United States. The exceptions will be holidays that celebrate the USA so NO to the 4th of July, NO to Memorial Day, NO to Veterans Day, NO to President Day or No to Thanksgiving. Don’t do those. Don’t. Celebrate them just don’t do them for this assignment. Don’t.
It does NOT have to be a day off holiday, it can just be a special day of commemoration. 
Why did it become a celebration? When did it become a celebration? What immigrant or group of people was it created to celebrate? Give a few reasons why. Cynical political calculations are a good reason, if someone was trying to woo voters that is a legitimate reason. I am looking at you Columbus Day.
Answer this in about 250 words.
I want source notes (not to be included in your word count) either footnotes or a bibliography source). Wikipedia is OK with me for this assignment.

In history it is easy to look back and select something and be outraged over treatment in the past. Some of these issues are far more complex than anyone really wants to know, including those who study it. The war with the Native American tribes in the second half of the 19th Century (1800s) is one such example.
In Historian Stephen Ambrose’s work Crazy Horse and Custer he pointed out the Anglo Americans continued to do to the Native Americans what has been done to people since the dawn of humanity, the stronger, more technologically savy societies advance and push the weaker foe off the land. This had not changed since the dawn of time. As an example all Europeans from all the nations of Europe have a genetic connection that is culturally and nationally different from other Europeans for only for about 1000 years. If a Greek takes pride that they decended from the ancient Greeks, well genetically every European also decends from the ancient Greeks, along with many in North Africa, and vice versa. So pushing people out is not new. In the future it may be different kind of pushing out. Think of the tech savvy getting ahead and in many ways becoming the superiors of those who don’t understand it.
Ambrose then posed a difficult thought to the modern reader about the war on the Great Plains. Which was right, to leave the native tribes alone and let the 250,000 people inhabit the land knowing they were not going to change their ways? Preserving them. Or for the land to be developed to produce food whereby the Great Plains now feeds over 1.5 billion people a year. The development of the Great Plains has helped end famine in the world and has been a benefit to people in other societies all around the globe. If we look back in history the cost of feeding the world was the destruction of these tribal societies. Now what is the morally right answer?
In about 250 words What is the right solution?
