    In fact, he created the Embargo Act of 1808 in effort to prevent war. The Embargo Act did not allow ships to leave the port for any foreign destination, which would prevent them from provoking fights with hostile ships. This led to a period of economic depression.

    It was a dark and confusing time, towards the end of the Civil War. The Union would soon find out how unprepared they were once the Reconstruction Phase started. There were many issues that needed to be handled, but the biggest one would be getting the Whites to accept African-Americans as citizens with rights. It was 1865, post-civil war, when Thomas Nast started to contribute to the views of public opinion through the use of his vivid political cartoons. Nast constructed three influential cartoons that helped change the views of Americans. He attempts to sway public opinion by depicting his characters as either good or bad figures, portrays the injustice Northerners and African-Americans faced, and mocks the conducts of the Confederates. Nast’s cartoons were extremely powerful; they allowed viewers to understand the problems that the nation was facing at the time…

    The role of women in society has changed dramatically over the centuries from women being inferior to men, to women gaining autonomy. The issue of gender roles has also changed over time; where in the late 1800’s males dominated the workplace and home, to women now acquiring more independence and self-worth. This paper will discuss the similarities of themes between the two short stories of “The Revolt of Mother” by Mary E Wilkins Freeman and “The Yellow Wallpaper” by Charlotte Perkins Gilman. Through each of these short stories the literary elements of style, symbolism, and irony will be discussed, impacting the theme in various ways. Over time, the role of women in society continues to change, shaping each individual into a new era of freedom and rights.…

    Twain efficaciously utilizes satire in, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, to instigate social change through the hypocritical characters in his novel that Huck meets on his adventure to free Jim from the cruel bondage of slavery. His writing involves immensely taboo topics and he uses humor to convey his message of the wrongdoing of the American, and explicitly the Southern, society in a lighter mood. Important examples were the abusive father Pap, the violent Grangerfords and Sheperdsons feud, and Aunt Sally’s racialism. Modern society continues to satirize the hypocrisy of racism and blind tradition time after time, noticing that while Twain’s book was effective, it was not effective enough to ignite the end to racism, something I fear…
