1. What is one possible positive consequence of Japanese isolation that Hall points out?
2. According to both writers, what was the main fear which caused the shogun to close Japan to the West?
3. How did Spain's activities in the Philippines serve as a warning to the Japanese? What effect did these activities have on Japanese policy?
1. One possible positive consequence of Japanese isolation that Hall points out is that it ensured peace for the country, and allowed it to develop its political and economic institutions without foreign influence, which was a large problem at the time for developing countries. Foreign influence often inhibited development of developing countries, so closure prevented this.
2. The main fear which caused the shogun to close Japan to the West was the growing influence of Christianity, and the effect it would have on Japan's political world. Christianity is predominantly a Western religion, and having that sort of Western influence upon a developing country could have detrimental effects on the country, like political division.
3. Spain's activities in the Philippines served as a warning to the Japanese by showing them that by sending missionaries to a country and converting the populous, you could essentially take over the country. This inclined the Japanese government to institute new policies that would prevent missionary activity in the country, by forbidding Spain, as well as Portugal, from visiting the country.

6. The American Declaration of Independence asserts that "all men are created equal." Write an essay in which you compare the American Revolution with the Haitian Revolution in light of this statement. Which revolution more fully accomplished the goal of equality? Be sure to include a clear thesis and address the following questions:
• In what ways were the revolutions similar or different?
• How did the idea of equality apply in each case to gender, ethnicity, and/or social class?
• Which revolution resulted in a new state that more completely lived up to the ideal that "all men are created equal"? (10 points)
“All men are created equal.” Comparing the American Revolution and the Haitian Revolution based on this statement alone can seem tough at first glance, because the Declaration of Independence insists that “all men are created equal.” However, the Haitian revolution is known as the most successful slave revolt in history, so which one made a more fair and equal state? Regarding race, class, and gender, which new land was more fair overall?
Starting with the American Revolution, it didn’t start due to inequality. In fact, inequality was scarcely a goal of the revolution. The goal was to secede from Europe and become their own nation, the U.S.A. They revolted due to taxation without representation, and a few years after succeeding, drafted the Declaration of Independence. The Declaration officially recognized the United States as an independent nation, and in it, the line “all men are created equal.” However, for many years to come, women and people of color were treated as inferior and legally had less rights than white males. Not until 1865 was slavery abolished, and not until 1919 were women given equal treatment in America.
In Haiti, or at the time, Saint-Domingue, there existed a class system that ranked from top to bottom of: French plantation owner, Affranchis, and then slave. This system continued on until the slaves and Affranchis heard of the successful revolution in America and revolutions in progress in other French colonies. Enlightenment ideals were also spread to Saint-Domingue, and after a law to grant Affranchis citizenship was vetoed, the Affranchis and the slaves banded together and revolted. A major contributor to this revolution was Toussaint Louverture, who acted very well as a leader for the revolution. With his army of Affranchis and slaves, they drove out the French, and the attacking British and Spanish.
Toussaint now ruled over Haiti, and created a free, multi-racial, constitutional society. French forces did not take lightly to this, and attacked even harder. Toussaint was captured, but the revolutionaries managed to drive out the French once again. Tousaint died, and Haiti remained free. With slavery abolished in Haiti, many white plantation owners fled Haiti, while some stayed. While I wish I could say that Haiti became a free land with equal rights, Haitian ruler Jean-Jacques Dessalines ordered the killings of thousands of white inhabitants, which didn’t end the inequality, it just turned it on it’s head. After the whites were gone, the slaves turned their anger to the Affranchis. Soon there were almost no one but slaves in a free land amidst destroyed crops and property.
Comparing and contrasting them, I think it’s safe to say that the American Revolution resulted in a more fair and equal state. While the Haitian revolution succeeded in freeing many slaves, it collapsed on itself and ended up becoming unequal once more. America took a century or so to grant equality to slaves, and a while longer for women, but it did eventually come. So in conclusion, the American Revolution resulted in a more fair and free state.

Why was Plautilla Nelli's Last Supper painting unique compared to other versions of the Last Supper?
Answer:
Plautilla's painting was unique for several reasons:
1. In the period when she produced this painting, the Painting Industry was dominated by male artists
2. she was a self-taught artist. So there is a strong urge to make comparisons between the work of a self-taught artist and those of others who learned the trade by apprenticing under great artists
3. speaking about the last supper painting, it was noted that her painting differed significantly from those painted by male artists in the following ways:
the tableware was more elaborate; the meal featured was indicative or typical of what residents of Santa Catrina would enjoySome commentators have also mentioned that her painting elicits much interest given that she must have taken so much pain first to master her craft second to endure the difficulty of creating it whilst maintaining conformity with the norms/disciplines of the nunnery, especially in matters relating to vestment.
