What was the short term significance of the Amritsar Massacre?
What was the short-term significance of the Amritsar Massacre? According to Lawrence James, "1919 was a turning point in the history of India and Amritsar was the pivot." This statement suggests that the Amritsar Massacre was significant, and it is supported by numerous contemporary and other secondary sources. Gandhi's letter to the Viceroy suggests that the British Empire lost Gandhi's respect for the British rule because of the Massacre and the following "light-hearted" treatment of Dyer.1 This was significant, as Gandhi, as the leader of the Congress, was responsible for leading all-India nationalist movements, which pressurized the British Empire to give concessions and ultimately independence. Tim Leadbeater suggests that the Massacre was a turning point for British attitudes and policy toward India; henceforth, the British tried its best to avoid repressive measures.2 However, it is also possible to argue that the Massacre was insignificant, as the non-co-operation movement, which began after the Massacre, failed to reach its objective and crumbled in 2 years. The Amritsar massacre damaged British rule in India by undermining the philanthropic aims of the Empire. The British Empire had justified their expansions in India and other colonies as carrying the "white man's burden": educating and emancipating the world. In the Memorandum to Post war reforms in 1916, the

How Far Can Sherborne Castle be Described as a Typical Castle of it's Time?
How Far Can Sherborne Castle be Described as a Typical Castle of it's Time? In 1066, William the Conqueror conquered England but he soon realised that he would not hold England until he found a way to keep everyone under control. So he then decided and invented what is now called the castle, a completely new piece of architecture no one had ever seen. William's castles started off as a motte and bailey and then over time developed into stunning stone made castles. One of the castles William constructed, Sherborne castle is the one I am studying and I am investigating how far Sherborne castle can be described as being a typical castle of it's time. Roger de Caen. Roger de Caen was the original builder of Sherborne castle. His ability was first recognised by Prince Henry, son of William the Conqueror. When Roger became a bishop in 1107 he became extremely powerful. He built Sherborne castle because he needed protection from the many enemies he gained. Though at the time it looked like a less typical castle, as it looked to be more of a religious structure. Although the castle had religious purposes it was till a very secure place. Built on top of a hill and surrounded by marshland it was only accessible by bridges. Its tall walls were several metres thick with battlements and a wall walk that could b used to defend the castle in the event of an attack. None of these
Situation Ethics
Situation Ethics Situation ethics is not dissimilar from utilitarianism, in that it is a way a deciding upon the correct action that is to be taken in a given situation. It does however take an individualistic approach, with the emphasis being upon each person, rather than looking after the majority, as is the case in utilitarianism. It is a Christian principle, and so would not apply to those outside of Christianity. It revolves around what the most loving thing to do is. Joseph Fletcher, an American professor of ethics used his beliefs and concerns to come up with what he believed was a fair way of deciding what was the right action to take in a situation. He didn't like the way in which so many ethical theories, such as utilitarianism were based upon and around a basic set of rules, a legalistic approach. He believed that it was too rigid, and did not allow for exceptions. He also firmly disapproved of any antinomian, because it "Rejects the idea that there are any authoritative laws, rules or regulations that you ought to obey in a decision-making situation."1 Instead he used love as a general rule in decision making; not "storge", to love a country or place; not "philia", to love a family member or friend; and not "eros", to make love and to lust for someone; but instead "agape", self-giving love, as is demonstrated by Jesus dying upon the cross. To Fletcher, "agape"

How does Shakespeare present Prospero's relationship with Ariel and Caliban throughout the course of the play?
Q1. How does Shakespeare present Prospero's relationship with Ariel and Caliban throughout the course of the play? Look at the language used when speaking to, and of each other. Do you think the dynamics of the relationships support a colonialist reading, or is this incidental? The time at which Shakespeare wrote The Tempest saw a new dawn in sea travel. It was written in 1611, two years after the ill-fated journey of the Sea Adventure to Virginia. This early attempt a colonisation was doubtless an influence Shakespeare's storyline in The Tempest. It is unlikely that Shakespeare consciously included this colonial theme in his writing, as there is only circumstantial evidence of a colonialist reading. However, we can further explore this theme by looking at the relationships of Prospero, the supposed 'colonist', with Ariel and Caliban, the assumed natives. The relationship between Prospero and his deformed slave is obviously a tempestuous one. Caliban is an unusual character in that he claims ownership of an island he may not be native to. He quite obviously resents Prospero's mastery of the island and indeed himself. Prospero has his own grievances with Caliban, who attempted to rape his daughter Miranda. Caliban shows no remorse or guilt over his actions and even adds insult to injury by claiming he regrets not being successful, "O ho, O ho! Would't had been done!
An analysis of the characters in Hamlet
Praveen Ravi Hamlet by William Shakespeare has been considered by many critics as one of the best plays in English literature. It has also been considered as one of the best tragedies among the many Shakespeare wrote. It is a story which revolves around this person called Hamlet, prince of Denmark. It is set in the Elizabethan times in the 16th century. It is a tragedy because it results in the deaths of many characters either accidentally or purposefully or forcefully. They all revolve around Hamlet's actions and thoughts and the deaths, either directly or indirectly are a consequence of his actions. Each character in Hamlet is important and deserves a great deal of attention. The aim of this piece of work aims to give a description of the main characters in Hamlet and some of the roles and functions they had to play. It also hopes to give the reader an understanding of the play by trying to explain the roles of the characters. As Shakespeare himself said "All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players: They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages The characters that we will be looking at are - The Ghost, Claudius, Polonius, Gertrude, Laertes, Ophelia, Fortinbras, Rosencratz and Guildernsten, Horatio and Hamlet. 1. The Ghost - The Ghost is the ghost of the late king Hamlet, the present
Communism - A Failed Russian System
COMMUNISM - A Failed Russian system "From each, according to his ability, to each according to his need." This is one of the phrases that crystallize the meaning of communism. In other words, communism is a social, political and economic theory that transformed the world and shaped much of the 1990's history. It is a system of government in which the state plans and controls the economy and a single party holds power, claiming to make progress toward a higher order in which all goals are equally shared by the people. Communism has been a major historical theme since the Bolshevik Revolution of Russia in 1917. Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels popularized the communist ideology in their 1848 work, Communist Manifesto. In it, they applied the term communism to a final stage of socialism in which all classes differences would disappear and humankind would live in harmony. For his theory, Karl Marks said: "Communism differs from all previous movements in that it overturns the basis of all earlier relations of production and intercourse, and for the first time consciously treats all natural premises as the creatures of hitherto existing men, strips them of their natural character and subjugates them to the power of the united individuals. Its organization is, therefore, essentially economic, the material production of the conditions of this unity; it turns existing conditions into
