Cairo And Beirut: Ancient And Modern
[ send me this essay ]
15 pages in length. The social, political and economical activities experienced in everyday life represent the very essence of what it means to be a human being. These representations illustrate how and why a person acts the way he or she does, how one attributes moods, feelings and emotions, the way in which one interacts with another, as well as what governs overall cultural behavior. Working upon the assumption that, for the most part, ancient Egyptians and Lebanese lived their lives out of habit and routine, the student can readily surmise problem solving techniques were borne out of what had already occurred in their past. If ancient man learned from what had already occurred, he would effectively eliminate the need to relearn the same lesson more than once. This ability to learn and progress reflects yet another critical factor that contributed to the ultimate development of complex societies, with Cairo and Beirut representing two of the most chronicled and intricate histories. Bibliography lists 12 sources.
