Nationalism

//__Nationalism in Europe: Italy and Germany__//





- Complete this for your use as we look at Nationalism in Europe. Be sure you include all 5 elements of nationalism: Culture, religion, history, language, and Territory

Resources on Giuseppe Mazzini:

We recently learned about Giuseppe Mazzini. 1) Write a short paragraph in your virtual notebook summarizing what Mazzini did. 2) Then go to the discussion tab at the top of this page and respond to the post listed in there.

Activity 1

Read the following short passage about Camillo di Cavour: @http://www.italianhistorical.org/page57.html

Highlight the entire text and copy it.

Then paste it into: www.wordsift.com and then hit "Sift"

Your page should then look like this:

Now make 2-3 predictions about what you think the passage is about. Remember that the larger the word, the more times it appears. This should help you identify what you think the most important ideas are in this passage!

Now you will read the passage and Identify the Main Idea and Details.

As you read, identify the MAIN IDEA and supporting details. Add CCQ's as well. You should put these notes on your virtual notebook.

Go back to your predictions at the beginning of your reading. Were those predictions correct or not? Fix the predictions (in a different color ink) to reflect what you've learned.

Once you are done you should go to my.hrw,com and login.

Define (in your own words) and CCQ the Key Terms and people in Chapter 10 Section 1



Cavour: Nationalist or not?

Take out your Frayer Model on Nationalism. Do you believe that Cavour was a Nationalist based upon the criteria in the Frayer Model?

Write your answer in a complete sentence on the Nationalism page in your virtual notebook, then follow the steps below:

1) Choose one piece of criteria from your Frayer Model which you believe Cavour exemplifies and write that in your virtual notebook. (Look up //"criteria"// and //"exemplify"// at www.vocabulary.com if you don't know what they mean!)

2) Explain HOW Cavour exemplifies this piece of criteria in 2-3 sentences in your virtual notebook.

3) Find a picture that you think is reflective of Cavour's Nationalism and post it to your Virtual Notebook.

Garibaldi: The Sword of Italy or Italian Terrorist?

Go to the following link on Garibaldi: @http://www.ohio.edu/chastain/dh/gari.htm

Highlight, copy, and paste into Wordsift, just as you did for Cavour.

Make some predictions based upon what you see in the wordsift you created.

Now go to the following link and complete the same tasks as above for this article: @http://www.reformation.org/garibaldi.html

Look at your two sets of predictions. Are there any major differences between the two websites? Which do you think is more reliable? Why?

Read the following brief snippet on Garibaldi: "This moving panorama depicting the life and times of Garibaldi is an example of the use of a popular subject for commercial entertainment. In 1860, [the year in wich we assume the panorama was produced] Giuseppe Garibaldi was the man of the moment. His portrait as well as his achievements at unifying Italy graced the pages of the illustrated newspapers, and the educated classes would have been very familiar with his accomplishments as well as his efforts that were still ongoing. A linear painting interpreting these in action-packed vivid color in 48 sections would have been hugely popular. Wars were particularly appealing subjects for panorama painters, and the events in Italy offered more than their fair share of combat, action, and drama. It would have guaranteed a ready audience in England eager to fork over a shilling or two to spend an hour being enthralled by the escapades of the Italian patriot in words and pictures. This particular example on its two rollers attached to some form of framework could have been transported around by horse and carriage and was small enough for drawing room entertainment in private houses or church halls. While its commercial goals seem undeniable, scholars are also exploring interesting hypotheses on the Panorama’s role as propaganda (Garibaldi enjoyed a triumphal welcome in London in 1864). The fact that the Panorama concludes with a scene related to the August 1862 episode of Aspromonte, in which Garibaldi was wounded, provides some evidence that the artist, [|John James Story], updated his piece to reflect the latest news (the episode is not recounted in the accompanying manuscript, suggesting that it was added after completion)."

Now look at the pictures on the following website, which is the actual panaroma of Garibaldi. As you look at the pictures try to narrate the story of Garibaldi as if it were a TV show and you were explaining it to a TV audience.

@http://dl.lib.brown.edu/garibaldi/panorama.php

Once you are done going through the panoramas, re-visit your predictions and explain whether they were correct or not, and why you believe they were either correct or not.

Tonight: In a paragraph, answer the following question:

Who do you think was the most EFFECTIVE Italian Nationalist, Mazzini, Cavour, or Garibaldi? Explain why, by first describing what makes a leader effective, and secondly by explaining one piece of evidence that shows your chosen Nationalist meets your description.

A Nationalist Election: How would you get your candidate elected?

Historically once Italy unified it became a kingdom, under King Victor Emmanuel of Sardinia.

However, Garibaldi would have preferred Italy become a Republic.

For this project, you will be pretending that the following people are running for Prime Minister (Leader, like a president) of Italy:

Giuseppe Mazzini Camillo Di Cavour Giuseppe Garibaldi

You'll be working in groups of 3 and will have the remainder of this class and the weekend to complete this project. The project itself will be worth a TEST GRADE.

Your job is to create a **//__CAMPAIGN WEBSITE__//** in support of one of the leaders of Italy to become its' first Prime Minister. You will be graded on how well you do the following three tasks:

Page 1) __Nationalist__ Identify what makes your candidate a good nationalist - identifying what he has done to help unite Italy based upon the five elements of nationalism.

Page 2) __Leadership__ Identify why your candidate is a good leader and would make a strong ruler. Support this with examples of how your candidate has shown leadership in the past.

Page 3) __Unifier__ Identify how your candidate would help to truly unify the people of Italy. Support this with examples of what your candidate has done in the pastto promote unity amongst the people of Italy.

Since each group will have three members, and there are three pages which will be created, each group member will be responsible for, and graded on, ONE PAGE OF THE WEBSITE.

The following need to be included on each website:
 * Theme/Title
 * Visuals
 * Text
 * Creativity

Here is how you will be graded on each of the above criteria (5 points each): ___**Theme / Title**__ _ Title is visible and the focus of the website _Theme is creative and colorful _ Theme incorporates historical references _ Theme is appropriate for the website _ Theme shows appropriate effort

___**Visuals**__ _ Website incorporates appropriate pictures, videos, Animotos, Wordles, etc. _ Visuals are creative and thoughtful _ Visuals are colorful _ Visuals draw attention to title _ Visuals allow for the viewer to understand the point of view of the website

___**Text**__ _ Text summarizes point of view of the website _ Text describes visuals _ Text gives details to elaborate on title _ Text uses accounts to show how they are important to the American Cause _ Text is creative propaganda

__**_Creativity**__ _You've based your work on an actual campaign website (see examples below) _You creatively appeal to voters _You use colors effectively _The text is powerful and short enough to reach any audience _The title is presented in a creative way

Total points/page: 100

Remember, although you are working groups, you will be graded individually. The group presentations will be a separate quiz grade where you will be graded as a group. This will happen next Tuesday in class.


 * Germany, aka Deutschland **

For this class you will be working independently on the following assignment.

You will be playing the role of HISTORY DETECTIVE.

Like Italy, Germany would become a country by joining together a bunch of smaller countries.

Begin by opening a Microsoft Word Document and put your name and Period 2 or 5 at the top.

First of all you'll need to find a website by using your amazing Google skills and website evaluation skills which can teach you about //__**German unification**__//. It should be both trustworthy and reliable. Wikipedia is fine....but it's long and hard to understand.

You should put this article into www.wordsift.com to preview it (we've done this before, but if unsure ask a neighbor to show you how to do it). Copy and paste your wordsift into your Word document. Examine the results.

Under that, predict what you think German unification will be about.

Then you will be finding information online (you can you should search for the answers to the following questions. Each answer should be 3-4 sentences in length, if not more.


 * 1) What countries joined together (aka, UNITED) to form what we now know as Germany?
 * 2) Who were some of the most important people responsible for uniting Germany? How do you know that?
 * 3) Was the unification of Germany peaceful, violent, or something else?
 * 4) What commonalities did all German states who united share in terms of the following elements of Nationalism: Language, Customs, Law, Religion, Social Customs
 * 5) In your opinion was the unification of Germany a good thing or a bad thing? Why?

All of the answers to these questions should be answered on your Word Document.

Then go to www.wordle.net and create a wordle on German Unification based upon what you learned today. Paste that into your word document.

Print out your document and hand it in to Mr. Hurley.

With any time that remains, go to Animoto and create an animoto which summarizes what you learned today about Germany.

Homework: Create a Venn Diagram which compares and contrasts German and Italian Unification. Google Venn Diagram, if you don't know what it means.
