Early Modern

The Middle Ages form the middle period in a traditional division of European history into three "epochs": the classical civilization of antiquity, the Middle Ages, and the modern era. The period of the Middle Ages is usually dated from the fall of the Western Roman Empire in the fifth century to the beginning of the Renaissance in the fifteenth century. With the demise of centralized Roman government in the West, trade, infrastructure, learning, and security declined. A feudal, or…

a viagem à Índia de Vasco da Gama em 1498. Algumas correntes historiográficas anglo-saxónicas preferem trabalhar com o conceito de "Tempos Modernos", entendido como um período não acabado, introduzindo nele subdivisões entre Early Modern Times (mais antiga) e Later Modern Times (mais recente), ou então procedem a uma divisão entre sociedades pré-industriais e sociedades industriais. A noção de "Idade Moderna" tende a ser desvalorizada pela historiografia marxista, que prolonga a Idade Média até

environment. The first electronic computers were developed in the mid-20th century (1940–1945). Originally, they were the size of a large room, consuming as much power as several hundred modern personal computers (PCs).[1] Modern computers based on integrated circuits are millions to billions of times more capable than the early machines, and occupy a fraction of the space.[2] Simple computers are small enough to fit into mobile devices, and mobile computers can be powered by small…

of Fontainebleau, not far from Paris, the Barbizon area appealed to landscapists for its rich diversity of scenery, ranging from ancient forests to open countryside, and its reputation as a pristine setting untouched by the industrializing hand of modern man. This area seemed an ideal location for artists who sought to record rural life out of doors, or en plein air, through a supposedly unmediated relationship with nature.

International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry in 1951. Niobium was acquired until the early 60’s, as a by-product, mainly from the columbite-tantalite’s treatment, which were scarce ores of erroneous occurrence. As a result, it was very expensive and used restrictedly to a type of stainless steel and some super alloys. Its discovery of expressive reserves of pyrochore (niobium ore) in Araxá, MG, in early 50’s and its technical practicability took place simultaneously in the USA and…

Her clothes are on the floor on her side with a basket of fruit. In the background another woman, in a camisole, is getting out of a pool. This juxtaposition of two such recognizable gentlemen with such immodest ladies was seen as a clear affront to modern society. On the other hand, the critics were shocked by the new techniques applied by Manet: he painted the objects and figures in patches of colours, cutting out the in-between shades to make sharper contrasts. The landscape,…

Reformation & Modern Church History Lesson 28, Page 1 The Last Command: Missions in “the Great Century” I will comment later on the fact that the nineteenth century is the Great Century when we come to the study of the expansion of Christianity.
