Agenda for the Day Current Affairs Journal #3 Importance of the Crusades? Silk Road and beyond Diary City States and Brochure

Current Affairs Journal #3 Step right up…….

Importance of the Crusades Why were they so important

Silk Road and Beyond…

Diary – Expectations In Europe, and particularly, in the Italian City States, the numbers of merchants and traders grew and so did their wealth. They became a powerful new class outside the hierarchy of the feudal system. People began to see that it WAS possible to move out of the class into which they had been born. In other words, a change in worldview was taking place.

Here is the scenario: A trading ship has just arrived in one of the major Italian ports (Genoa, Florence, Milan, Venice) loaded with goods from the East. It will be your job to write a diary account of one of the merchants just arriving home. Remember, as a writer, you have experienced life in different cultures, you have goods from many areas of the world to share, and you have gained knowledge from different people and lands.

Role: Merchant (See the Mariners' Museum link for famous merchants) Audience: Someone learning about changing worldview Format: Diary Tense: Present (Renaissance)

Your diary entry should be at least 1-2 pages in length Your diary entry should be at least 1-2 pages in length. You will need to illustrate the kinds of experiences you have had during your travels, the knowledge you have gained, the differences you observed in the East and how they compare to life in your Italian City State, what goods you brought back. Most of all, you will need to express how your worldview has changed through the intercultural contact and exchanges you have experienced. This diary should be both creative AND informative.
