For the purpose of this paper, attention will be focused on the Antigonid, Ptolemaic, and Seleucid kingdoms and how these powerful institutions employed these particular methods to legitimise their personal monarchies. The use of propaganda to form alliances by the successor kings, as a political strategy, is most certainly visible in the century following Alexander’s death in 323 BC . It could be argued that Antigonus I, through his proclamation of Greek freedom in 315 BC , was engaging in propaganda as a means of securing legitimacy and power for his monarchy. We know from Diodorus ; Antigonus marked Cassander as an enemy of the Greeks and Macedonians and accused him of attempting to enthrone himself in Macedon. He then proclaimed freedom of the Greeks.

An American Journal Article Review: “Deciphering Memory: John Adams and the Authorship of the Declaration of Independence” The article began with John Adams, who was portrayed as a man of principle and integrity, recalling a particular event where he appointed Thomas Jefferson to write the Declaration of Independence and the latter who seemingly denied the whole incident ever happened. The dominant purpose of this article seems to be to convince the readers that science, specifically cognitive psychology, can explain why both parties gave conflicting memories of the event. Robert E McGlone claims that there are new advancements in psychology that can be used to further explore the nature of a memory. To begin with, McGlone contested Dumas Malone’s 1948 writings, which implied that “if Adams’s recall of detail was suspect, his memory of essentials is correct”. He reasoned that “commonsense resolution of the matter alone cannot resolve the issue”.

The Procter and Gamble logo was rumored to be the mark of the devil. The logo actually meant “The man on the moon and the 13 stars representing the original colonies” (356). Salmans quotes one customer, Faye Dease, who says “when a mirror is held up to the logo, the curlicues in the man’s beard become 666-the sign of the Antichrist” (Salmans 357). Mrs. Dease also proceeded to argue “If it causes controversy, I don’t see why they have it” (Salmans 357). Salmans cites a woman, Cathy Gebing an employee of Procter and Gambles consumer service department, who said, answering phone calls all day, “No, sir, that’s a false rumor…that’s our trademark, we’ve had it about 100 years” (356).
Kimm Pacheco HON 202 - 04705 March 26th, 2012 Professor Martino Wealth Wasted: Candide and Martin's Meeting with Royalty During the Age of the Enlightenment arose numerous philosophers who expressed their views on topics such as the importance of reason, human progression, and the critiques and skepticism of established institutions like religion. They had much to say and many were influential before, during, and after the Enlightenment however, François-Marie d'Arouet (or better known by his pen name as Voltaire) played a significant role in the movement (Shank 2010). His signature literary work Candide illustrates a series of episodic travels filled with satire and representations of stereotypical individuals through their reoccurring
The goals of a rational man were considered to be knowledge, freedom and happiness. For example, Denis Diderot and d’Alembert worked together to create the first ever encyclopedia where they focused on mathematics, mechanics, physics, and philosophy. In France, Enlightenment was based on salons where famous philosophes would discuss their new ideas. These ideas were then spread across Europe, notably England and Germany. The Enlightenment period influenced the American Revolution by giving the colonists an opportunity to decide to break away from the British rule.
