At what point does the Haitian Revolution become “revolutionary”?
Historians have to grapple with the multiple causes of events. In the historiography of the Haitian Revolution, historians were long split between the Revolution being driven by external factors—such as the view of R. R. Palmer that the events in Haiti were an outgrowth of the French Revolution—and arising out of internal factors—such as the view of C. L. R. James that events in Haiti were driven by the enslaved populace’s desire for freedom.

What then, are readers of Abraham and Isaac supposed to learn, to believe, based on what Abraham goes through, in contrast to the lessons readers are supposed to gather from reading about Laius and Oedipus?
Abraham finds himself in a situation not entirely different from Laius, the father of Oedipus. Like Laius, Abraham is a leader of his people. Laius gets guidance, or a warning from an oracle who is in touch with Laius’s god, Apollo. Abraham is spoken to by his God.
Laius take action because his god tells him son will kill him. And for his part, Abraham is prepared to sacrifice his son because of direct instruction from his God.
But readers of this story from The Book of Genesis have a very different opinion of Abraham and his predicament than do readers of Oedipus Rex, and the difficulties of Laius, Oedipus’s father.
The author, or at least, the transcriber(s) of Abraham and Isaac, are trying to assert some pretty clear lessons about Abraham and his role in a new mono theocratic society. The lesson asserts things about Abraham, and it also effectively discredits things about those pre-Abraham religions, those pagan religions, such as were believed in the time of Sophocles and Oedipus.
What then, are readers of Abraham and Isaac supposed to learn, to believe, based on what Abraham goes through, in contrast to the lessons readers are supposed to gather from reading about Laius and Oedipus?

Do they have a common theme like war, motherhood, peace etc.?
The purpose of this two-stage project is for you to compare cultural productions in the Humanities from three different cultures using terminology and interpretative processes from a specific humanities field.
You will select one field in the Humanities to focus on and discuss three different examples from this field from three different cultures.
During Stage 1, you will find three examples of work in the Humanities, find connections between them, and identify course resources that can help you talk about them.
During Stage 2, you will write a paper comparing and analyzing your examples using terminology and methods from the course resources.
Instructions for Stage 1
Step 1: Find your examples
Do some research outside of the course materials and find three examples from one of the fields below that have something in common. Your examples should come from three different cultures.
· philosophy
· religions
· literary arts
· visual arts
· music
· dance
· theater
· drama
For example, you could choose three paintings, one Chinese, one American, and one from Italy. You could choose three specific dances, one from Latin American culture, one from African American culture and one from Hungarian culture. You could choose three poems about birds, one from a Pacific Islander author, one from an American author and one from a Middle Eastern author. The key is to find unique works and make sure they have something in common.
Step 2: Describe your examples
Describe each of your three examples briefly in 2-4 sentences each. Make sure to include the following information in your description of each:
1. The culture and time period for the example (for example, 20th Century Nigeria, 19th Century African American, Chinese Ming Dynasty, the 1600s)
2. The title of the example, if there is one.
3. The author, artist or creator of the example and the dates this person lived (1920-1980, for example)
4. A citation in MLA format, including an image of the example, either as a link out or as an image in the paper.
Step 3: Discover the connections
In about 3-5 sentences, explain at least one specific element or aspect that you think your three examples have in common. No additional research is needed here. Use your ideas. You can ask yourself, for instance:
· Are they all from the same time period?
· Do they have a common theme like war, motherhood, peace etc.?
· Do they all use the same palette of warm colors?
· Do they all tell a similar story?
· Do they all have the same kind of protagonist?
· Do they all use similar metaphoric imagery?
· Do they all have the same function, as in a ritual?
· Do they all address ethics? or metaphysics? or epistemology?
· Do they all depict the same kind of image, like of nature? of people? Of buildings?
Step 4: Identify course resource(s)
Identify at least one to two resources from the course materials you could use information from to talk about your examples. In about 2-4 sentences, briefly state why you think this resource (s) will be useful. If your examples are from any performing arts (music, dance, theater, drama), please look ahead to weeks 6-7.
At this point, you don’t have to know exactly what you will use from the resource(s), but you should have an idea of what resource(s) will be useful. Again, there is no need to do outside research. Please rely on the materials in the online classroom.
Step 5: Citations
Include citations for your examples and the course resource(s) you identify either in the section where you list them or at the end of your assignment. Please make sure your citations are in MLA format.
Note: Please try to adhere to the sentence suggestions for each section. This is a proposal and should not exceed two pages in 12 point font, double-spaced.
Identify the branch of government that created these lower courts.
In this unit, you are studying the judicial branch of government and the rules that apply to all cases that are filed with a court, such as jurisdiction and the justiciability doctrine. With these rules in mind, analyze the following fact patterns.
· Billy, a resident of Dallas, Texas, was having trouble paying his bills. Billy, along with his best friend Edward, decided that they would rob a bank in neighboring Wichita Falls to raise some funds. During the robbery, things went horribly wrong, and Billy and Edward ended up taking a hostage and driving to nearby Randlett, Oklahoma, where they took refuge in Edward’s grandmother’s home. Both Billy and Edward eventually were apprehended in Randlett, and the hostage was released. Which court would possess jurisdiction over this case—state or federal? Explain your answer.
· Newlyweds Malia and Kevin were honeymooning in Hawaii. They were on their way to a Hawaiian luau when they were rear-ended by a local resident who lived in Honolulu. Malia and Kevin were both hospitalized and required extensive surgery for back and neck injuries. Malia and Kevin wish to sue the local resident. Which court would possess jurisdiction over their cases—state or federal? Explain your answer.
· Jane recently discovered that she is pregnant. When she shared the happy news with her coworkers at a local law firm, everyone was overjoyed—especially her good friend, Chiquita. Unfortunately, the very next week, Jane was fired from her position, despite receiving stellar annual reviews. Her supervisor said that they were downsizing because they had lost a big case. Jane believes that she was fired because she is pregnant. Jane does not want to call any attention to her firing, so she has decided not to do anything about the firing; however, Jane’s friend Chiquita, who is a paralegal, is furious with the attorney. She has decided to file the case on behalf of her friend, Jane. In what court would this case be filed—state or federal? Would Chiquita face any problems with filing the lawsuit? If so, what? Explain your answer.
In a 2–3-page paper, answer the questions associated with each fact pattern, and also complete the following:
· Identify the federal district in which you reside and the specific district, such as the Northern District of Alabama, the Middle District of Alabama, or the Southern District of Alabama.
· Identify the branch of government that created these lower courts.
· Review the Web site for your local state circuit court and your local federal. district court, and provide the citation to each.
