Question

Need Help ASAP, on the assignment

Answer 1

Take an overall look at the image in the assessment. You will notice it contains quite a lot of action. Pay close attention to the things each character is doing and speculate about why they may be doing this.

Select the image of the siege of Constantinople by the Ottoman Turks to see it in greater detail.

You see a heavily fortified city. Surrounding the city are tens of thousands of Turkish soldiers. The soldiers are armed with crossbows, shields, and swords. Some of the soldiers are using multiple ladders to scale the walls of Constantinople. Additional soldiers remain on boats to support those performing the attack.

Now is your chance to narrow in on a person in the image. Imagine yourself in his place. You will take on the role of the person you select and provide a firsthand account from that perspective. You have many individuals to choose from. Be creative while using your historical knowledge from the lesson.

What person have you put yourself in the place of?
What does this person smell?
What does this person see?
What does this person hear?
What does this person touch?
What fears does this person feel?
Why is this person here?
Name at least three goals this person thinks he will accomplish by winning the battle.
What does this person think will happen the week after the battle?

Answer 2

I'll assume the image is referring to the fall of Constantinople in 1453.
What you see in the image is the Byzantine empire defending their capital, and the Ottoman empire capturing it. This was a success. Now pick, which side do you want to be on? A byzantine defending or an ottoman capturing?

Answer 3

This would heavily influence the answers to the questions your asking. *

Answer 4

I got 100% on my assignment and this is what I put. Please do not copy word for word. You can use this as a guide to prepare your own assignment:

I am an Ottoman Turk invading Constantinople. I am standing on duty at the bottom of the wall leading to Constantinople. I stand on guard with my crossbow pointed upward. I smell dust and dirt from our continuous bombardment which will inflict damage on sections of the wall. I smell blood from death. I see people fighting and my eyes sting from the rubble in the air. It is chaotic. I hear sounds of assault from foot, horse and boat. My sweaty, slippery hands grip tightly on my crossbow and metal shield. I remind myself that I am here to do a job. I am fighting for this land in which we will take over. We will spread our Muslim faith and gain religious and economic power. When we win we will also get control of a very important area what serves as a major trade route between the east and west. This will provide us with tremendous wealth. After the battle, my eyes will see desolation, destruction, death in the streets, ruins and desecrated churches. We will have to rebuild the city and gain control of the people.
