[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. King Leopold, who "found a number of tools at his disposal that had not been available to empire builders of earlier times" (Hochschild PG), possessed cunning and innovation like no other before him; with the sole objective to amass a fortune while at the same time rule with an iron fist, author Adam Hochschild illustrates how one of the king's most prized tools for achieving his objectives were in the form of human beings – the gross exploitation of African slaves.

Akhenaten: Heretic Not Religious
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. While at first glance it may appear as though Akhenaten took his father's teachings and built upon them so as to enrich the lives of his people, he actually distorted the fundamental value of what Amenhotep III had taught him by altering the foundation of Egyptian piety with an unexpected and unprecedented display of extremism. Whether he misinterpreted through ignorance or purposely misconstrued his father's idea of establishing a living sun god, it can readily be argued how Akhenaten placed the entire society into a state of disbelief when he proclaimed Aten the one and only god to be worshipped, casting aside all the others as no longer belonging to the Egyptian civilization, disregarding best interests of his constituency in the process. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Alexander The Great: Influence Of Greek Law
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. Greek law evolved as a necessary means by which to regulate society's behavior. What had up until then been left up to the whims of each individual to handle on his own was now a product of fair and sensible legal procedure. Alexander the Great was the instrumental force behind the eventual cohesiveness that encompassed Greek Law. It can be argued that there was, indeed, a great need for such a show of order in that there existed no modicum of conformity when it came to retribution. As Greek law continued to be established, it also became an integral component of other areas of life, branching out into political and social implications. The writer discusses Alexander's influence of Greek Law. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Alexander The Great: Main Achievements
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. Alexander the Great has been heralded all throughout history as one of Greece's most memorable and illustrious personalities; while he was instrumental in providing leadership for the Greeks, he was also a notorious murderer who utilized his authority to put many people to death. This aspect of Alexander's persona is not readily acknowledged by typical historical accounts; however, this was a side of him that was more than apparent. Indeed, Alexander was instrumental in doing much good for the Greeks while he was alive -- having taken the throne of Macedonia at age nineteen and leading his people to triumph -- yet it seems that lately his negative contributions appear to overshadow what good he brought to the people of Greece. The writer discusses Alexander's primary achievements, focusing upon his influence on Greek law. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Analysis of Three Articles about Kush History from the 25th Dynasty in Egypt until their Concentration in Meroe
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 7 page paper discussing three articles on Kush history from the 25th dynasty in Egypt until their concentration in Meroe. The history of the Kush of Nubia is recounted in three articles by Helen Chapin Metz, Claude Rilly and Noah Kippley-Ogman. The Kush were concentrated in Nubia until the expansion of their strength and influence eventually led to them conquering Egypt around 750 B.C. and ruled during the 25th dynasty until approximately 656 B.C. At this time, they were invaded by the Assyrians which led to their retreat to Napata and eventually Meroe. Once concentrated in Meroe, the Kush became a major trading force based on their central location and production and trade of their own iron. Eventually however, the Kush became weakened through the exploitation of their own resources which led to the loss of their farming industry and the end of the Roman empire which reduced trade along their route. Meroe was eventually conquered by the Axumite army A.D. 350 thus ending their independence. Metz, Rilly and Kippley-Ogman provide slightly different perspectives, details and areas of concentration in their articles which provide readers with an overall history of the Kush but are not necessarily consistent in the details of each era of the Kush. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
