In particular, TRH causes the nearby pituitary gland to secrete thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), which then goes on to stimulate the thyroid gland in the neck to make different types of hormones called thyroxine and triiodothyronine, which are critical for controlling many functions in the body, including metabolism, growth, and maintaining a steady heart rate.

[ { "content": "Christopher Columbus was arrested and ostracized for a long list of well documented tyrannical and brutal acts in the New World, and for incompetence as governor of Spain's earliest colonies. How did he go from a disgraced figure to one who is celebrated by statues, and even his own holiday?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "Hmm this is a very interesting and complex question! I think the following are the primary factors which led to the alternate, more positive revision of Columbus' legacy: \n\n1) After the horrors of the early colonial period were largely over, residual respect for Columbus as the \"great discoverer\" remained in the public consciousness, and especially the sentiment that he opened up a new world of opportunity. Over the centuries the popular conception of Columbus slowly diverged from reality, mainly due to the influence of romanticized and idealized portraits of Columbus and his \"adventures\", as well as the selective and biased depiction of Columbus' accomplishments by various colonial powers. \n\n2) In the early 20th century the United States wanted to enter World War I and needed to establish its identity as a colonial power as well, in order to gain the prestige and legitimacy required. Newspaper tycoon William Randolph Hearst spearheaded a \"Columbus hero\" campaign, together with his publishing empire and PR firms, to boost patriotic sentiment and glorify the colonial legacy of the USA. The Columbus Day holiday was declared by President Wilson in October of 1918. \n\n3) In the 1930s and 1940s, Columbus was appropriated by the fascist regimes of Mussolini and Franco for their own agendas. They emphasized Columbus as \"an Italian hero\" and promoted Columbus' identification with fascist and nationalist ideals of struggle, heroism, and \"natural selection\". These regimes also implemented forced colonization programs and state sponsored heroic depictions of colonialism which further reinforced acceptance of Columbus as a figure of national pride for the populations of Italy and Spain. \n\n4) After the end of World War II, especially amid the upheavals of decolonization, the \"heroic\" figure of Columbus was promoted by various governments around the globe as a symbol of Western values and the benefits of colonialism. This allowed the West to justify and perpetuate their colonial occupation of colonized nations. Additionally, Columbus' role as \"a defender of Christianity\" was emphasized by the Roman Catholic church, since they also wanted to promote a heroic image of Columbus as a symbol of their influence in spreading the message of the gospel. \n\nIn sum, I would say that Columbus' legacy was preserved primarily through the combination of a romanticized and idealized image of Columbus among the general public, and a carefully orchestrated and concerted effort by various political and religious leaders to perpetuate and glorify the legacy of Columbus in order to suit their own political, religious, and colonial agendas. It was this confluence of forces which ensured that Columbus would survive as a celebrated historical figure in the collective memory of the West.", "role": "assistant" } ]

How did he go from a disgraced figure to one who is celebrated by statues, and even his own holiday?", "role": "user" }, { "content": "The achievements of Columbus and the early Spanish colonial efforts are complicated and highly controversial subjects, with many differing perspectives on the historical significance of these events. Due to historical context and shifting perceptions in the popular imagination over time, controversial figures and events in the past often become subject to significant revisions and reinterpretations in subsequent historical narratives. In particular, considerable debate and critical reassessment of the colonial era in New World history and the legacy of figures like Columbus has been ongoing in recent decades, emphasizing these historical events as deeply fraught and problematic for many modern intellectual, political, and ethical perspectives. \n\nAt the same time, Columbus has long been memorialized in the popular historical imagination. He is often remembered as a pioneering and ambitious figure who successfully initiated the first European colonizing efforts in the New World, and hence is celebrated as marking the beginning of the long western European imperial conquest and colonization of the Americas. Columbus' era was also deeply laden with existing Christian religious, scientific, and cultural narratives and ideals, which no doubt played an important role in shaping subsequent perceptions of his achievements and legacy. \n\nOver time Columbus's historical role and significance has also been subject to various historical reinterpretations and reconstructions, which have revealed more ambiguous or critical views of his historical legacy. While Columbus is still celebrated as the founding figure of the European conquest of the Americas, in recent decades his legacy has been increasingly associated with problematic and troubling historical events, including his participation in the European slave trade and displacement of the indigenous peoples of the Americas. This has led to an ongoing critical reassessment of Columbus and his historical achievements, revealing more complex and often controversial features of his legacy and resulting historical impact.", "role": "assistant" } ]
