Part 2 Short Answer ID Terms (30%): A short answer ID should briefly address the basic journalistic questions: who or what, when, where, and why. Each answer should be a coherent paragraph of at least 4-5 sentences. Be sure to discuss the historical significance – this is the most important part of your ID term. Do not leave any portion of the five options you choose blank – it is best to write something, even if you must guess somewhat. Partial credit is better than nothing.Answer FIVE (5) of the following terms:AthensConfuciusThe First Intermediate PeriodHinduismJainismLaoziThe Second Intermediate PeriodSolonSpartaThe Third Intermediate Period

Christian missionaries were initially more successful converting barbarian women than men; however, the women would often pressure their husbands to convert. This was the case during the conversion of Clovis, the leader of the Franks. His wife, [BLANK-1], had converted to Roman Catholicism and pressured him to convert as well. She was initially unsuccessful; however, after convincing him to pray to the Christian god before a battlefield triumph, she succeeded in converting him. This ultimately led the Frankish Kingdom to convert to Christianity, an important moment in terms of the Christian conversion of barbarian tribes.

Male homosexuality (but not same-sex marriage) was widely practiced in Ancient Greece and without any stigma; female homosexuality, however, seems to have been rarely practiced. One famous counterexample was the poet [BLANK-1], a woman who wrote romantic poetry celebrating the love between two women. This poet lived on the Isle of Lesbos (thus the term: lesbian). It is unclear whether this poet truly was a lesbian herself, however, she is closely associated with lesbianism in the modern era.

In the Hellenistic Period, following the death of Alexander the Great, people in Alexander’s empire began to worship new gods and goddesses that had not been well celebrated during the Hellenic Period. One of the deities to receive a boost in popularity was the worship of [BLANK-1], the goddess of luck, fate, chance, and fortune. People would perform magic rituals and spells that were designed to invoke the goddess’s celebrated luck and they believed the efforts were successful. A famous modern shoe company makes allusions to this goddess of luck or fate by borrowing the swoosh or checkmark that was used for her symbol.
