1) “Hallmark Five: We Embrace the Gift Of Diversity.” In what way does Strayer’s textbook,  Ways of the World , reflect Hallmark 5 of the SND de Namur?             I believe that Strayer did embrace the gift of diversity in his book. I feel he stated what he believed and the different topics and beliefs that surface when it come to history. The book itself has a lot of information and different diverse topics. In my opinion, I think he was a very diverse writer when he wrote this particular book. He mentions a lot of different cultures and people of different time eras. Also, the photographs that he provides in the book are very diverse and have a lot of culture behind it.

It took a huge transformation in politics as well. During the world war 2 the war really had a global conflict with the independent origins with Asia and Europe. The second war was the most ...

Reading 16,17,18,19

Reading about the connections that the various Atlantic revolutionaries shared was interesting and reading that the Atlantic basin had become a world of intellectual and cultural exchange.it was interesting to see how this idea were driven from the European enlightenment and it was shared across the ocean through newspaper and books. It’s interesting to me to read this thing because I really get to see how much history has changed or how in a way it still remains the same. I really enjoyed reading the French revolution in depth and see how everything started because I remember in high school studying about it, but I didn’t really remember a lot. I found it interesting how the social conflicts gave the French Revolution a much more violent,far-reaching and radical character compare to the American who was its counterpart.it was nice to read about the gender roles, in the French revolution and how Strayer mentions that it didn’t not create a new society for female po...
