Extractions: Church this solution of the controversy was of great significance, and created a desire for further dogmatic decisions on the Virgin Maryher resurrection and ascension. But the procedure of Pius IX. proved of far-reaching importance from another point of view. True, he had taken the opinion of the bishops on the subject, and had received the assent of a large majority; none the less, the verdict was pronounced by himself alone, not by an ecumenical council. Thus, by arrogating the function formerly exercised by the ecumenical council, he virtually laid claim to the infallibility which had always been regarded as inherent only in the doctrinal pronouncements of such a council: in other words, he availed himself of a privilege not accorded to him till the 18th of July 1870. to his successor. For, in the encyclical Quod numquatn (E~ 5, 1875), he took the rash step of declaring invalid the Prussian laws regulating the relationship between Church and statethe only result being that the feud was still further embittered. In these later years the dark days of his captivity were amply compensated bythe proofs of reverence displayed by Roman Catholic Christianity, which accorded him magnificent ovations as his period of jubilee began to fall due. The twenty-fifth anniversary of his pontificate was celebrated with great splendour on the 16th of June 1871; for he was the first pope who had thus reached the traditional years of Peter. In 1872 his 80th birthday gave occasion for new demonstrations; and 1875 was a so-called year of jubilee. Finally, in 1877, the fifty years of his priesthood were completed: an event which brought him innumerable expressions of loyalty and led to a great manifestation of devotion to the Holy See from all the Roman Catholic world. On the 7th of February 1878 Pius IX. died. His successor was Leo XIII.

Extractions: Objectives: The students will be able to: describe the goals and accomplishments of an individual explorer. determine the exploration policy of one European country. rank and defend the exploration achievements of competing European countries. gather relevant information from a variety of resources. Description of lesson/activity: The students will have completed the research and class discussions about the situation in Europe during the 1400s which caused the Europeans to explore. Students have also identified the attributes necessary for an explorer. Students will now ex amine the lives and explorations of several individual explorers. Rather than dwell on a chronology of explorers and accomplishments, the activity has been designed to emphasize the in±depth research of a few explorers and to use this research to infer the exploration policies of the countries involved. The students should be divided into groups of three. One student from each group should be assigned to gather information on three explorers from Spain; the second student should gather information on explorers from France; and the third on explo rers from England and the Netherlands. Spain and France were highlighted because they were the leading countries during this time period. England and the Netherlands were examined together because they had similar exploration policies and were no t as prominent as the others in the search for new lands. Portugal was not included because their early discoveries were dealt with in the first part of this unit as the cause for other Europeans to explore. Fact sheets have been provided for the following explorers:

Extractions: The European Age of Discovery Since the days of antiquity, exploration of the world has been motivated by the desire for adventure, colonization, conquest and trade. During the Middle Ages the Norsemen crossed the Atlantic to Iceland, Greenland and North America ca 1000 A.D. However, these expeditions did little to stimulate the rest of Europe's interest in the western hemisphere. During the 12th century European attentions turned to the East as the objective of the Crusades, was to capture the Holy Land from the Muslims. European knowledge of, gained during the Crusades, and interest in the East was intensified by the journeys missionaries across Asia and the wide circulation of Macro Polo's detailed account of the wonders of the Orient. During the course of the Crusades overland trade routes were developed thereby increasing trade between Europe and the far East. By 15th century, the breakup the Mongol Empire and the growth of the Ottoman Empire blocked Europe's overland trade to the East. The search for new trade routes, the rise of merchant capitalism, and the desire to exploit the potential of a world economy initiated the European "Age of Discovery and resulted the discovery of unknown continents, the expansion of Europe and the creation of great empires. Henry the Navigator promoted expeditions along the cost of Africa that helped dispel the superstition and misconceptions that impeded previous attempts to sail through the torrid zone. The magnitude of the world is revealed by Bartholomew Diaz rounding the Cape of Cape Good Hope, Vasco de Gama's trip to India, Columbus' voyage to the America's and the circumnavigation of the world by the expedition of Ferdinand Magellan. The Spanish and Portuguese monopoly, resulting from the Treaty of Tordesillas, stimulated efforts to find other passages to the East and was later challenged by the French, the Dutch and the English.

Extractions: Columbus claimed land for Spain even though, if it was in the Indies, it belonged to the Great Khan of China. Christopher Columbus discovered America for Spain in 1492. Columbus thought that he could reach the Indies quicker if he sailed west. The islands that he first reached are still called the West Indies. Although Columbus returned to America three more times, he died believing that the land he had reached was Asia. Columbus made four voyages to the Americas. On his third voyage, he landed on the mainland of South America on the coast of Venezuela. The colony Columbus had founded on Hispanola on his second voyage rebelled. This revolt by the colonists put him in disgrace. He died without regaining his fortune or his prestige, but today his voyages are recognized as being among the most important events in history.

Park began at the mouth of the Gambia River on June 21, 1795, and traveled northeast on horseback and by foot over rough country. He reached the Niger River at Ségou (which is now in Mali). Park travelled hundreds of miles, suffering fever and imprisonment along the way. He wrote of his trip in "Travels in the Interior Districts of Africa" (1797). At the request of the Scottish government, Park went on a second expedition in 1805 to find the source of the Niger River. During this unsuccessful mission, Park and his expedition members were attacked at the rapids of Bussa, where Park drowned. PEARY, ROBERT E.

Extractions: De Soto, «dih SOH toh,» Hernando (1500?-1542), a Spanish explorer, helped to defeat the Inca empire and led the first European expedition to reach the Mississippi River. From 1539 to 1542, he led a large Spanish expedition through what is now the southern United States. His army landed in Florida and crossed about 10 present-day states. De Soto became known as a courageous explorer who helped conquer the New World for Spain. However, the era of exploration was marked by greed, intolerance, and cruelty. In their search for wealth, de Soto and his men tortured and brutally killed many Indians. Early expeditions. De Soto was born in the province of Extremadura in Spain. As a teen-ager, he sailed to the New World and began his career as an explorer in the tropical rain forests of Panama. De Soto served in expeditions to enslave Indians and to search for wealth. By the early 1530's, de Soto was known as an excellent soldier and horseman. He joined an expedition led by Francisco Pizarro, another Spanish explorer, against the empire of the Inca Indians in what is now Peru. After a short delay, the men began their journey in 1532 with a small army of 168 men. They reached the city of Cajamarca, where a huge Inca army, commanded by Emperor Atahualpa, was camped. Pizarro sent de Soto with a small troop of 15 cavalrymen to invite Atahualpa to meet with Pizarro. The Spaniards ambushed the Inca and captured their emperor. Although the Inca paid an enormous ransom for their emperor, the Spaniards executed him. De Soto helped Pizarro capture Cusco, the Inca's capital, in 1533.

Do we want to be the discoverers or the discoverees? Too bad we can't go back a few hundred years and get input from discoverees like the Incas or any number of Native American tribes. They'd have a strong point of view. Perhaps a far broader view is necessary. Our astronauts, including those of Columbia, and everyone else involved in the space program might be doing the human race a bigger favor than we realize. The late Carl Sagan would point out that there are probably other civilizations out there. He estimated that as many as 1 million advanced civilizations live in our galaxy, which is but one of "bill-yons and bill-yons" of galaxies, as he'd famously say. Sagan was certain that the odds favor contact between our race and another, and a lot of scientists agree.

After the discoveries of Columbus had gained Spain a foothold in America , expeditions were soon set out to conquer and evangelize this ' New World '. The leaders of these expeditions are called conquistadores ("conquerors"), a name that denotes that they felt connected with the reconquista , the Christian (re)conquest of the Iberian peninsula from the Muslims ). Many of the conquistadors were poor nobles ( hidalgos ) looking forward to make fortune in the Indies since they couldn't in Europe. The first Spanish conquest in the Americas was the island of Hispaniola . From there Juan Ponce de Leon conquered Puerto Rico and Diego Velazquez took Cuba . The first settlement on the mainland was Darién in Panama , settled by Vasco Nuñez de Balboa in The most successful conquistador was Hernando Cortes , who in , with Native American allies, overran the mighty

Extractions: I n 1998, New Mexico reached a milestone in its long and colorful history. It is the year the state observed the Cuatro Centennial, or 400th anniversary of the founding of the Spanish colony at the Tewa village o f Ohkay in 1598. Early Spanish Exploration of the Southwest In 1536, the ragged survivors finally emerged from the wilderness at Culiacan, on the west coast of Mexico. Cabeza de Vacas report to the Spanish Viceroy, Antonio de Mendoza, included a brief mention of stories they had heard which told of large cities in the interior of the continent where valuable minerals were traded. These sparse but tantalizing bits of information sparked a renewed interest in the Spanish quest to find the new Mexico which had so far eluded them. In 1539, Mendoza authorized Marcos de Niza, a Franciscan priest who had accompanied Pizarro to Peru, to conduct a preliminary exploration to determine the truth of these reports. Estevan went along as the expeditions guide. We can only imagine what the indigenous peoples they met thought of the light skinned men who rode astride unfamiliar creatures, wearing uncomfortable looking clothes which reflected the sun, aggressive and often rude men who carried weapons made of steel and who persisted in knowing about cities where a bright yellow metal could be found. It must have been a frightening, yet wonderful encounter. Little did either of these two diverse cultures know that their worlds would never be the same.
Francisco Pizarro francisco never went to school, and never learned to read He sailed to the new Worldwith Alonzo de Ojeda, on cities of gold in the south, made pizarro want to http://www.bruce.ruiz.net/PanamaHistory/francisco_pizarro.htm
Extractions: Francisco Pizarro was born in Trujillo, Estremadura, Spain in about 1471 and died in Lima Peru on June 26, 1541. He was the illegitimate son of Gonzalo Pizarro, an infantry captain, and Francisca Gonzalez. Francisco never went to school, and never learned to read or write. He sailed to the New World with Alonzo de Ojeda, on November 10, 1509 and was with him on his discoveries of present day Venezuela and Colombia. When Ojeda founded the city of San Sebastian, in Colombia, Pizarro, was left in charge of the settlement while Ojeda went to Española for supplies and re-enforcements. Due to sickness, lack of food and supplies, and hostile natives, the colony soon started leaving, and Pizarro went to Cartagena. At Cartagena, he joined the expedition of Martin Fernández de Encíso , who had left Española with supplies for the colony of San Sebastian. This was the same expedition, that Vasco Nuñez de Balboa had stowed away on. From Cartagena, the fleet sailed on to San Sebastian. While there, they had problems with the hostility of the local inhabitants, and Balboa suggested that they move across the bay, to a place where the natives did not have poison arrows, and were friendlier.
