How do Thersites’ criticisms of Agamemnon compare to Achilles?

I have a few projects about 10 mini projects I need… each writing is about 3 to 4 sentences. here are the questions I needs a response to: M1.1 How do Thersites’ criticisms of Agamemnon compare to Achilles? Do they lead to different outcomes? Why? M1.2. Hector and Andromache meet at a liminal space (the gates) that divides the world of the city from warfare. What do we learn about Hector’s values from this scene? Why does the poet have him meet his wife and child? M3.1. Analyze the representation of eating, sleeping and sexual activity and their significance for understanding human activity in the final books of the poem. M3.2. Achilles notes that there can be no compacts between lions and men. In the context of the final books of the poem, what is significant about this claim? M4.1 When Dido and the Trojans first interact, she is a competent leader. What causes that to change? How does that relate back to the proem and the issues raised there? M4.2 In Aeneid 4, the failed relationship between Aeneas and Dido serves as the explanation for historical hostility between Rome and Carthage. How does this personal relationship and its affect upon much larger communities reflect important ideas about the individual and the community? NB: your role here is not to pass judgment upon the relationship between Dido and Aeneas, but rather to think about why the depiction of the relationship and how that works into the poem as a whole. M5.1 Compare the council of the gods in Aeneid 10 with the council that opens Iliad 1. Does the depiction to the divine world in that scene of the Aeneid replicate ideas familiar from the Iliad? In what ways are the scenes different? M5.2 In what ways is Camilla similar to Nisus and Euryalus? What similar messages do their deaths convey about epic glory, and the individual’s pursuit of it? M6.1 Candaules confuses public and private realms, and this leads to disaster. How is his story representative of larger themes in Book 1? M6.2 With the story of Candaules and Gyges in mind, analyze the downfall of Cyrus?

Explain how technology has helped or hindered the way we live on Earth.

Developed throughout this course, and will develop new skills in research. For this assignment, you will: • Generate your own topic of study on some aspect of environmental science from the course . You are free to explore just about any area of research on this topic that we have or will read this semester. Some common topics might be: Environmental implications of a particular resource natural or artificial; How technology has helped or hindered the way we live on Earth; Why recycling should be mandatory; Humans are causing climate change/global warming; How corporations stop the production of Earth-friendly products, ex. (electric cars); Why eating meat is bad for the environment. • Make an argument about your topic. This argument must be clearly stated in a working thesis statement. All body paragraphs must be focused and organized, clearly relating back to your thesis. • Research sources appropriate to your topic, and effectively use those sources as evidence to support and prove your thesis. Your paper must have at least five scholarly, relevant sources which help support your thesis. At least two of these must be scholarly, peer-reviewed journal articles, and at least one must be from an academic book (needs to published by a university press and written by a recognized expert on the topic). • Cite all sources using APA Format. Your paper must include proper parenthetical citations and a Works Cited page. We will go over APA citation in class, and you have Everyday Writer as a reference. Your research paper must be 4-5 pages, typed, double-spaced, in Times New Roman 12 point font, and follow all APA formatting conventions. A Few Notes about Required Sources: Your sources must be reputable and reliable. Good sources include the following:! scholarly books (should be written by an expert on the topic— look for a University Press imprint as well) ! scholarly, peer-reviewed journals (Check the school databases for these) ! some websites (We will be discussing internet sources later.) ! Original sources Remember that a well researched paper will include a variety of sources. Also remember that for academic papers, books and scholarly journals tend to provide the best information.

What is one constitutionally based argument that asserts the Supreme Court justices correctly interpreted the equal protection clause from the Fifth and/or Fourteenth Amendments in the DOMA case?

Reflect: Three core values are often discussed when it comes to what all Americans hold dear: democracy, liberty, and equality. Equality, in particular, is a value and a right that Americans have fought other nations and each other to preserve and expand. Until the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution was passed, equal protection of the law was not part of our Constitution. This critical amendment was the legal vehicle that enabled our nation to prohibit discrimination based on race and sex and to also support and affirm the need for diversity. Nevertheless, the struggle for equal protection and due process continues, and other amendments to the Constitution, which include the Fifth, Ninth, and Fourteenth Amendments, have become involved in this effort. One of the most debated legal decisions involving equal protection thus far has been the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) of 1996. In a 2013 Supreme Court decision, Section 3 of DOMA was found to be unconstitutional.

Write: In your initial post of at least 250, utilize the Constitution, established case law, and scholarly sources to answer the following questions:

  • What is one constitutionally based argument that asserts the Supreme Court justices correctly interpreted the equal protection clause from the Fifth and/or Fourteenth Amendments in the DOMA case?
  • What is one constitutionally based argument that asserts the Supreme Court justices incorrectly interpreted the equal protection clause from the Fifth and/or Fourteenth Amendments in the DOMA case?
  • Explain which argument is the most credible, reliable, and valid. Why?
