Loughlin discussed the fascist or creationist, Gustave Herve and his ability to switch from socialist to national socialist. Herve stared as a French revolutionary but he failed at gaining support for his cause as a revolutionary socialist. He tried to lead a revolt of the workers against the wealthy in January 8th 1910 but he failed to gain much support. Then in World War1, the pacifist Herve decided to switch his views and support the war effort. He moved from a pacifist to a French nationalist and a reactionary to the issues brought before him in parliament. Herve’s change in view point to a Christian Nationalist Socialist mean that he was always a closet patriot. This topic is relevant because it serves as an example of a potential origin to fascism and gives reason as to why Trump is not a fascist but his supporters could be. Loughlin used Paxton’s definition of fascism to make his Trump argument. Both subjects are relevant since some Americans believe that Trump is leading the nation in a fascist

The Press and American Politics in the 1790s Most Americans during the early 1790s deemed newspapers to be important to the republic’s well-being – it provided a medium via which the elected officials and the public could connect, find out what issues were at hand, and formulate policies that were influenced by logical, informed deliberation. In the 1790s, newspaper editors and correspondents, then new individuals with a new perception of occupation as political journalists and activists, facilitated in formation of a new populace for politics and in communicating to it new notions regarding national identity as well as partisan identity. Almost instantaneously, however, the emergence of an unusual sort of reporting mystified this prospect. Incited by conflicting plans for the new republic’s future, rival groups surfaced in George Washington’s government and Congress; during the mid-1790s, each group had created opinionated newspapers defending its stance.

Upstage is back, downstage is front, right is left, left is right, out is up, break a leg but don't really, wings have nothing to do with birds, the catwalk doesn’t involve cats, and when the stage manager says move it means move. The theatre vocabulary is very confusing for the outside world, but for me it is my second language. More specifically, I have developed a passion for the technical elements of theatre over the years. The joy of being the “people in black” that can make amazing sets and produce incredible plays which goes unnoticed.. Although this discourse is much small yet complex it has helped me find out who I am but also in my academic skills through learning how to work in teams, solve problems independently but also how to be

Newspapers in the colonial times of America were the biggest way of communication throughout the colonies. A newspaper is a serial publication containing news, other informative articles, and usually advertisements. They are relatively inexpensive, both to print and/or purchase, and provide a lot of useful information to people that otherwise, would have remained clueless about what was happening outside their town. “Hand-written newsletters” had been around much longer than what we would call “newspapers”, although after the invention of the printing press, newspapers were less often handwritten.

“Don’t be afraid to explore, ask questions and take chances,” my dad would tell me. You see, my dad, an engineer, tried to get me to question everything. He is never afraid to learn a little bit more about something he already knows and is always eager to learn something new; I take after him. I love to learn, and figure out how things work. It's not surprising, then, that I plan on majoring in engineering; what is, perhaps, surprising, is that these same habits of mind led to me developing an interest in and passion for theatre.

The dramaturgy (the study of dramatic composition of the play) is unique, in that Washburn takes an innovative approach to writing this play by attending a real-life tech rehearsal, transcribing the dialogue that occurs in the room between actors, technicians, directors, producers, etc., condenses the transcription and uses the condensed version in her piece 10 out of 12. The play intertwines dialogue between various departments of theatre (actors, directors and technicians) and various mediums of sound (use of taped dialogue, live dialogue and headset dialogue) thus creating an experience that uses all the senses. Washburn’s realistic style of script shows her focus on the view that theatre is not meant to be watched but rather heard or experiences, her play is an experience so realistic that it makes the audience question whether it is reality or fiction. She uses real-life reference in an accurate manner which led to the conception of the script for 10 out of

The Greeks were the first to introduce the concept of theater. As a matter of fact, one performer, Thespis, created the idea of a chorus, which was a group of people that expressed opinions, gave advice, and had the author’s point of view. The chorus would be the equivalent to the “score” in modern theater. The International Thespian Society, an organization formed to honor student’s success in the theater, was named after Thespis. In Greek theater, the place that the actors performed was called the “paraskene,” while in modern theater it is called the stage.

These are the supporters that began the wave of far-right prominence that is currently being seen, and at most times the loudest of the voices defending or explaining the right-wing. These base supporters all seem to share certain qualities that allow far-right movements to speak to them, these qualities are what determine not only if they will support the party, but the success of the party itself (Art, “Inside the Radical Right”, ix). While many of these right-wing supporters or leaders seem to believe that they are attracted to the far-right parties and ideals because they have “nothing else to lose”, many on the surface seem to have been just as likely to join center-left parties if it were not for such a strong anti-immigrant sentiment (Art, “Inside the Radical Right”, x). David Art interviewed many of these core supporters in 2011, right before the far right began to gain more mainstream support. He at first appeared to be surprised by how normal many of the supporters seemed, echoing the sentiment that they could easily be in a more mainstream party if they lost a few strongly held beliefs.

The French Revolution was undoubtedly influenced by the political theorists of the Enlightenment. The ideas of two French political theorists in particular are easily seen throughout the French Revolution, Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Baron Montesquieu. Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s thoughts and texts, such as the Social Contract, instilled the entitlement of basic human rights to all men. Rousseau’s concepts on rights combined with Baron Montesquieu’s ideas on government provided the backbone of a radical movement in the French Revolution known as the Terror. When one delves into the beginnings of the French Revolution, the motives and actions of the National Assembly, and the Terror of the French Revolution, one can obviously see the influence of two Enlightenment political theorists, Rousseau and Montesquieu.
