Without a doubt, Ronald Reagan was one of the most successful leaders of the United States all throughout its history. As the 40th U.S. President, he never failed to impress people from various parts of the world with his strong economic and diplomatic policies. He served for two full terms, which allowed him to hold the U.S. presidency from January 20, 1981 until January 20, 1989. Let’s take a quick look at some of his major accomplishments and understand why many people consider Ronald Reagan a great president.
The Important Contributions of Ronald Reagan as U.S. President
Why was Ronald Reagan a great president? No one can deny the numerous contributions and achievements of Reagan as U.S. President. His diplomatic policies led to positive results including the ending of the Cold War against the Soviet Union. Likewise, the so-called ‘Reaganomics’ has helped the nation surpass numerous economic problems during that particular time. Add to that, take into consideration the major legislation that he signed that greatly helped improve the country’s then-struggling economy.
He introduced massive tax cuts and supported the reduction of government programs. More importantly, the U.S. economy got a major boost from his supply-side economic policies, which played crucial roles in the success of the so-called ‘Reaganomics.’ Thanks to these highly efficient moves, inflation was reduced significantly, the growth of social spending was curtailed and the idea of entrepreneurship was greatly encouraged countrywide.
Aside from his efficient economic policies, no one can forget his strong and brilliant foreign policies. His administration expressed clearly its opposition against communism. At some point in time, he called the U.S.S.R. an evil empire. He also strengthened the U.S. military as well as ordered the country’s intervention in Grenada. Under the so-called ‘Reagan Doctrine,’ paramilitary forces were provided aid by the U.S. in an effort to remove socialist governments from power, specifically in places such as Afghanistan and Central America.
Under his presidency, the U.S. vastly improved its missile defense systems and other military technologies. He created stronger ties with the United Kingdom and met with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev that curtailed further development on Soviet Union’s nuclear arsenals. Free markets and American conservatism marked his presidency. More importantly, he was credited as one of the major factors behind the fall and breakup of the Soviet Union. He also played a huge part in ending the Cold War.
Reagan signed numerous major laws, most of which had very strong impact on the country’s overall growth. These include the Social Security Amendments of 1983, the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 and the Economic Recovery Tax Act of 1981. Moreover, he also signed into law the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986, Goldwater-Nichols Act of 1986 as well as the Tax Reform Act of 1986.

Gan amhras, bhí Ronald Reagan ar cheann de na ceannairí is rathúla sna Stáit Aontaithe ar feadh a stair. Mar an 40ú Uachtarán na Stát Aontaithe, níor theip air riamh daoine ó áiteanna éagsúla ar domhan a chur iontas ar a bheartais dhaonna agus taidhleoireachta láidir. D'fhóin sé ar feadh dhá théarma iomlán, rud a thug deis dó uachtaránacht na Stát Aontaithe a shealbhú ó 20 Eanáir 1981 go dtí 20 Eanáir 1989. Déanaimis breathnú go tapa ar chuid dá chuid éachtaí móra agus tuigim cén fáth go measann go leor daoine gur uachtarán iontach é Ronald Reagan.
Na Tograí tábhachtacha a rinne Ronald Reagan mar Uachtarán na SA
Cén fáth go raibh Ronald Reagan ina uachtarán iontach? Ní féidir le duine ar bith na ranníocaíochtaí agus na héachtaí iomadúla a rinne Reagan mar Uachtarán na Stát Aontaithe a shéanadh. Mar thoradh ar a bheartais taidhleoireachta, tháinig torthaí dearfacha, lena n-áirítear deireadh a chur leis an gCogadh Fuar i gcoinne an Aontais Shóivéadaigh. Mar an gcéanna, chabhraigh an rud ar a dtugtar Reaganomics leis an náisiún fadhbanna eacnamaíocha iomadúla a shárú le linn na tréimhse áirithe sin. Cuir leis sin, cuir san áireamh an reachtaíocht mhór a shínigh sé a chabhraigh go mór le geilleagar an tír a bhí ag streachailt a fheabhsú.
Thug sé gearrthóga cánach ollmhóra isteach agus thacaigh sé le cláir rialtais a laghdú. Níos tábhachtaí fós, fuair geilleagar na Stát Aontaithe borradh mór óna bheartais eacnamaíocha ar thaobh an tsoláthair, a bhí ról ríthábhachtach acu i rath an rud ar a dtugtar  Reaganomics. A bhuíochas leis na gluaiseachtaí an-éifeachtúla seo, laghdaíodh boilsciú go suntasach, laghdaíodh fás an chaiteachais shóisialta agus spreagadh go mór smaoineamh na fiontraíochta ar fud na tíre.
Seachas a bheartais eacnamaíocha éifeachtacha, ní féidir le duine ar bith a bheartais eachtracha láidre agus iontach a mheabhrú. Chuir a rialtas in iúl go soiléir a fhreasúra i gcoinne an chumannachais. Ag pointe éigin ama, d'iarr sé ar an USSR impireacht olc. Chuir sé neart ar arm na Stát Aontaithe chomh maith le ordú a thabhairt don tír idirghabháil a dhéanamh i Ghránada. Faoin "Dochtúir Reagan" mar a thugtar air, thug na Stáit Aontaithe cúnamh do na fórsaí paraimíleatacha i iarracht rialtais shóisialacha a bhaint as an chumhacht, go sonrach in áiteanna mar Afganastáin agus Meiriceá Láir.
Faoin uachtaránacht aige, rinne na Stáit Aontaithe feabhas mór ar a gcórais cosanta raicéad agus ar theicneolaíochtaí míleata eile. Chruthaigh sé naisc níos láidre leis an Ríocht Aontaithe agus bhuail sé le ceannaire na Sóivéide Mikhail Gorbachev a chuir deireadh le tuilleadh forbartha ar armáin núicléacha an Aontais Shóivéadaigh. Bhí margaí saor in aisce agus coimeádach Mheiriceá ina threoir. Níos tábhachtaí fós, tugadh creidiúint dó mar cheann de na príomhfhachtóirí atá taobh thiar de thitim agus d'fhrithpháirteachas an Aontais Shóivéadaigh. Bhí ról mór aige freisin i gcríochnú an Chogaidh Fuar.
Shínigh Reagan go leor dlíthe móra, a raibh tionchar an-láidir ag an gcuid is mó acu ar fhás foriomlán na tíre. I measc na n-athruithe sin tá Leasanna Slándála Sóisialta 1983, Acht um Cheart Chánachais agus Freagracht Chánachais 1982 agus Acht Cánachais Athshlánúcháin Eacnamaíochta 1981. Ina theannta sin, shínigh sé freisin go dlíthiúil Acht Athchóirithe agus Rialú Inimirce 1986, Acht Goldwater-Nichols 1986 chomh maith le hAcht Athchóirithe Cánach 1986.


Most Famous Public Speakers in History
If we want to be the best public speakers that we can be, it helps to learn lessons from history and the speakers that came before us. It’s not dissimilar to the way that if you want to be a bestselling novelist, it helps to read the classics.
By identifying and studying the most famous and successful public speakers throughout history, we can learn the kinds of valuable lessons that no amount of practice and experience can make up for. But who exactly are the most famous public speakers in our collective history?
In today’s article, we’re going to go ahead and find out.
Winston Churchill is arguably the most famous public speaker of them all, mostly due to the pivotal role that he played in leading the British through the Second World War. Churchill had to be a good speaker because he was leading a nation through one of the most traumatic experiences imaginable, and many of his most famous speeches are still part of popular culture today. He was also a master of using the rule of three, which we’ve talked about in previous articles.
Socrates is a great example of a groundbreaking public speaker because he lived thousands of years ago in a time long before the discipline had been studied and best practices established. He became a memorable speaker through practice and hard work, dedicating his life to speaking to people and espousing his philosophical theories. He even died for his beliefs, after being sentenced to death for corrupting the minds of young Athenians.
Abraham Lincoln is another great example of a politician whose words have lasted far longer than the man himself. In particular, the Gettysburg Address is studied by public speakers from all over the world, and it’s just a shame that we don’t have any recordings so that we could analyze the way in which the speech was delivered.
John F. Kennedy
John F. Kennedy was an incredible public speaker, at least later on in his life, although it took him a lot of hard work and practice to get there. In many ways, he can also be compared to Winston Churchill, because his public speaking engagements took place against the backdrop of the Cold War against the USSR. Kennedy was also able to inspire the American people to begin their quest to travel to the moon, with the first landing taking place just under six years after Kennedy’s assassination.
Martin Luther King
Speaking of assassinations, no list like this would be complete without a mention for Martin Luther King, the civil rights activist who’s most remembered for his iconic “I Have a Dream” speech. Like Socrates, King eventually died as a result of his beliefs, but the time that he spent with us was enough to cement his reputation as one of the most skilled orators of all time. You could do a lot worse than to analyze his speeches.
Love her or hate her, Margaret Thatcher was a skilled public speaker who acted as the prime minister of the United Kingdom during the latter half of the 20th century. She rose to the most high-profile job in the country at a time during which there was even less equality between the genders. Her speeches are perhaps a little less well-known than those by some of the other names on this list, but she’s definitely worth learning from regardless.
Mahatma Gandhi started out as a lawyer and learned public speaking on the floors of courts before going on to become a resistance figure who led India to independence from the British through a campaign of nonviolent resistance. He’s another great example of a man who lived and died based on his beliefs and who was able to use the art of oratory to rally support for an important cause.
People often forget Oscar Wilde when they think of public speakers, in part because he’s thought of more as a playwright and a wit than as a speaker. With that said, he was also known to deliver lectures, and he’s a great reminder that we’re practicing the art of public speaking whether we’re standing up in front of millions on live television or whether we’re having a quiet discussion at a dinner party. Public speakers who want to be successful and remembered could do a lot worse than to learn from and to imitate Oscar Wilde.
Julius Caesar is like Socrates in that he’s a great example of a successful public speaker who rose to the top of his field back before the rules and best practices of public speaking were codified. He was able to lead the Roman Empire during a tumultuous time and is still remembered for many of his most famous speeches, including the iconic line, “I came, I saw, I conquered.” You’ll notice that this uses the rule of three, too.
Now that you know our picks for some of the most famous public speakers in history, we want to hear from you. Do you agree with the people we’ve ranked in our list, or do you think that we’re missing someone who deserves to be there?
As always, be sure to let us know in the comments so that we can keep the discussion going, and don’t forget to follow us on your social networking sites of choice so that you don’t miss what’s coming next. We’ll see you soon for another article!

Na Neach Labhraíonn Poiblí is Fheiceálaí sa Stair
Más mian linn a bheith ar na cainteoirí poiblí is fearr is féidir linn a bheith, cabhraíonn sé le ceachtanna a fhoghlaim ón stair agus ó na cainteoirí a tháinig roimh dúinn. Níl sé difriúil ón mbealach go gcabhraíonn sé le bheith ag léamh na sean-leabhair má tá tú ag iarraidh a bheith i do úrscéalaí is mó díol.
Trí na cainteoirí poiblí is cáiliúla agus is rathúla a aithint agus a staidéar ar feadh na staire, is féidir linn na cineálacha ceachtanna luachmhara a fhoghlaim nach féidir le haon mhéid cleachtais agus taithí a dhéanamh suas. Ach cé iad na cainteoirí poiblí is cáiliúla i stair ár gcomhchoiteann?
Sa alt inniu, táimid chun dul ar aghaidh agus a fháil amach.
Is dócha gurb é Winston Churchill an cainteoir poiblí is cáiliúla acu go léir, den chuid is mó mar gheall ar an ról lárnach a bhí aige i gceannas na Breataine tríd an Dara Cogadh Domhanda. Bhí Churchill ina labhraí maith mar bhí sé ag tabhairt aghaidh ar náisiún trí cheann de na taithí is traumatic is féidir a shamhlú, agus tá cuid mhaith dá chuid labhraí is cáiliúla fós mar chuid den chultúr tóir inniu. Bhí sé ina mháistir freisin i úsáid riail na trí, a labhair muid faoi in ailt roimhe seo.
Is sampla iontach é Sócráit de chainteoir poiblí forbrónach toisc go raibh sé ina chónaí na mílte bliain ó shin i am fada sula ndearnadh staidéar ar an disciplín agus na cleachtais is fearr a bhunú. Tháinig sé ina chainteoir cuimhneacháin trí chleachtadh agus obair chrua, ag tiomáint a shaol chun labhairt le daoine agus ag tacú lena theoiricí fealsamacha. Fuair sé bás fiú as a chreideamh, tar éis dó a bheith ciontach i mbás as meabhair na nAithiní óga a mhealladh.
Is sampla iontach eile é Abraham Lincoln de pholaiteoir a bhfuil a chuid focal i bhfad níos faide ná an fear féin. Go háirithe, déanann cainteoirí poiblí ó gach cearn den domhan staidéar ar an gCúrsa Gettysburg, agus is mór an trua nach bhfuil aon taifid againn ionas go bhféadfaimis anailís a dhéanamh ar an mbealach ar tugadh an óráid.
John F. Kennedy
Bhí John F. Kennedy ina chainteoir poiblí dochreidte, ar a laghad ina dhiaidh sin ina shaol, cé gur thóg sé go leor oibre crua agus cleachtais chun é sin a dhéanamh. I go leor bealaí, is féidir é a chur i gcomparáid le Winston Churchill, toisc gur tharla a chuid cainteanna poiblí i gcoinne Chríocha Fuar i gcoinne an USSR. Bhí Kennedy in ann freisin a spreagadh na daoine Meiriceánach chun tús a chur lena n-éileamh chun taisteal go dtí an ghealach, leis an gcéad tuirlingt a tharla díreach faoi shé bliana tar éis assassination Kennedy.
Martin Luther King
Ag labhairt di de assassinations, ní bheadh aon liosta mar seo iomlán gan lua do Martin Luther King, an gníomhaí cearta sibhialta a bhfuil is mó cuimhne ar a chuid iconic "Tá mé Dream" óráid. Cosúil le Sócráit, fuair King bás sa deireadh mar thoradh ar a chreideamh, ach bhí an t-am a chaith sé linn go leor chun a cháil a dhaingniú mar cheann de na labhartha is sásúla riamh. D'fhéadfá a dhéanamh i bhfad níos measa ná a chuid óráidí a anailísiú.
Is breá leat í nó is fuath leat í, bhí Margaret Thatcher ina cainteoir poiblí sásúil a ghníomhaigh mar phríomh-aire na Ríochta Aontaithe le linn an dara leath den 20ú haois. D'éirigh sí go dtí an post is airde sa tír ag am nuair a bhí níos lú comhionannas idir na cineálacha ann. B'fhéidir go bhfuil a cuid óráidí beagán níos lú aitheanta ná iad siúd ag roinnt de na hainmneacha eile ar an liosta seo, ach is fiú foghlaim uaidh ar aon nós.
Thosaigh Mahatma Gandhi mar dhlíodóir agus d'fhoghlaim sé labhairt go poiblí ar urlár na gcúirteanna sula ndeachaigh sé ar aghaidh chun a bheith ina fhigiúr frithsheasmhachta a threoraigh an India go neamhspleáchas ó na Breataine trí fheachtas frithsheasmhachta neamhfhoréigneach. Is sampla iontach eile é de dhuine a bhí ina chónaí agus a fuair bás bunaithe ar a chreideamh agus a bhí in ann ealaín na hairíonna a úsáid chun tacaíocht a bhailiú do chuspóir tábhachtach.
Is minic a dhéanann daoine dearmad ar Oscar Wilde nuair a smaoiníonn siad ar chainteoirí poiblí, go páirteach toisc go gceapann siad níos mó air mar dhrámaí agus mar mheon ná mar chainteoir. Agus é sin á rá, bhí a fhios aige freisin go raibh léachtaí á tabhairt aige, agus is cuimhní iontach é go bhfuil muid ag cleachtadh ealaín na labhairt poiblí cibé an bhfuil muid ag seasamh os comhair na milliúin ar theilifís beo nó cibé an bhfuil muid ag plé ciúin ag dinnéar. D'fhéadfadh cainteoirí poiblí ar mian leo a bheith rathúil agus cuimhneacháin a dhéanamh i bhfad níos measa ná foghlaim ó Oscar Wilde agus é a mhalairt.
Is cosúil le Sócráit go bhfuil Julius Caesar mar shampla iontach de chainteoir poiblí rathúil a d'ardaigh go barr a réimse ar ais sula raibh na rialacha agus na cleachtais is fearr a bhaineann le labhairt poiblí códaithe. Bhí sé in ann an Impireacht Rómhánach a threorú le linn am tumultuous agus cuirtear i gcuimhne go fóill é le go leor dá chuid óráidí is cáiliúla, lena n-áirítear an líne íogair, "Tháinig mé, chonaic mé, bhuail mé". Tabharfaidh tú faoi deara go n-úsáideann sé seo riail na dtrí freisin.
Anois go bhfuil a fhios agat ár picks do roinnt de na cainteoirí poiblí is cáiliúla sa stair, ba mhaith linn a chloisteáil uait. An aontaíonn tú leis na daoine a bhfuil rangú déanta againn ar ár liosta, nó an gceapann tú go bhfuil duine atá ag teastáil a bheith ann ar fad ar iarraidh?
Mar is gnách, bí cinnte a chur in iúl dúinn sna tuairimí ionas gur féidir linn a choinneáil ar an plé ag dul, agus ná déan dearmad a leanúint dúinn ar do suíomhanna líonraithe sóisialta de rogha ionas nach bhfuil tú ag cailleadh cad atá ag teacht ar aghaidh. Feicfimid sibh go luath le haghaidh alt eile!

Jesus looked around and said to his disciples,
"How hard it is for those who have wealth
to enter the kingdom of God!"
The disciples were amazed at his words.
So Jesus again said to them in reply,
"Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God!
It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle
than for one who is rich to enter the kingdom of God." -Mark 10:23-25
The Lamsa translation of the Bible is a 1933 translation that relies heavily on Aramaic texts and current Aramaic idioms and colloquialisms. Aramaic was the language of the common man in Israel during the time of Christ. One reason to consider the Lamsa translation is that some of Jesus's sermons may have had nuances that were lost or diminished by translation into Greek then other languages.
One of the primary examples of this is Lamsa's camel. According to Lamsa, "camel" is an Aramaic idiom for a large cable. If this were a common idiom for camel during the time of Christ, the then those in the audience during Jesus's Rich man-camel-eye of needle sermon would have an association.
A large rope can be passed through the eye of a needle by un-twisting it and passing....or testing....each fiber. Those fibers that cannot pass the test must be rejected.
The fibers that pass can be retwisted into a cable, albeit a smaller one.
This metaphor would have been crystal clear to the audience if "camel" also meant "large rope" in the language of the times.

Agus do fhéuch sé a thimcheall, agus do rádh sé le a dheisceabail,
"Conas deacair é do na daoine a bhfuil saibhreas
dul isteach i ríocht Dé! "
Agus bhí iontas ar na deisceabail as a chuid focal.
Agus dúirt Íosa leo arís, ag freagairt:
"A chlann, cé chomh deacair is atá sé dul isteach i ríocht Dé!
Tá sé níos éasca do camel dul trí shúil an úlla
ná go dtéann saibhir isteach i ríocht Dé". -Marc 10:23-25
Is aistriúchán de 1933 é aistriúchán Lamsa den Bhíobla a thacaíonn go mór le téacsanna Aramaic agus le idiomálacha agus le cainteanna Aramaic reatha. Bhí an t-aarméice ina theanga a labhraíodh ag an duine coitianta in Iosrael le linn am Chríost. Ceann de na cúiseanna a bhfuil an t-aistriúchán Lamsa le breithniú ná go bhféadfadh go raibh nuances ag cuid de theachtaireachtaí Íosa a chailltear nó a laghdaítear trí aistriúchán go Gréigis agus ansin i dteangacha eile.
Ceann de na príomhshamplaí ar seo is é camel Lamsa. De réir Lamsa, is é "camel" idiom Aramaic do chábla mór. Dá mbeadh an t-idiom coitianta seo le haghaidh camel le linn am Chríost, bheadh comhoiriúnú ag na lucht éisteachta ansin le linn searmanas an duine saibhir-camel-eye of needle Íosa.
Is féidir le rópa mór dul trí shúil snáthaigh trína dhí-thriall agus trína... nó trí thástáil... gach snáithín. Ní mór na snáithíní sin nach féidir an tástáil a rith a dhiúltú.
Is féidir na snáithíní a théann tríd a ath-thréith i gcábla, cé go bhfuil ceann níos lú.
D'fhéadfadh an maíomh seo a bheith soiléir go hiomlán don lucht éisteachta dá mba rud é go raibh "camel" mar an gcéanna le "rópa mór" sa teanga a bhí á labhairt ag an am.

Think you know every kind of footwear fathomed into existence by man and woman? Well, here’s a little run for your knowledge. See if you are, in fact, hot on the heels of such all-encompassing knowledge by reading this post, and catch a glimpse at a few shoes whose soles have been swallowed up by history.
10. Chopine. With roots in 15th-century Venice, these unbelievable platforms–which could tower up to a height of 30 inches–were symbolic of a wearer’s rank; the higher the platform, the higher the status the wearer. A similar shoe, the Manchu chopine, was a prevalent part of ancient Chinese womenswear.
9. Caliga. If you were a soldier in ancient Rome, the caliga was what you would have worn while ‘Roman’ around! With their thick soles tacked by iron hobnails for traction, reinforcement, and defense, these strappy sandals could soldier on through many a terrifying trek.
8. Ataderos. Silver-clad ankle boots like these, which hail from the 12th-15th century Chimu culture of ancient Peru, were literally to die for in their day and age; they are thought to have been used in an upper echelon burial.
7. Adelaide Boot. Named for the Queen Consort of William IV, these Victorian era booties were made of either silk or kid leather, and had no left-right differentiation. Their construction kept women’s ankles from being seen when their crinolines were scandalously swept atilt by the wind.
6. Slap Sole Shoe. Originally created in the 1630s to keep men’s riding heels from sinking into the mud, these unusual shoes were soon de rigeur for women (albeit in a much more decorative variety). And, as you may have guessed, the interesting name alludes to the sound the hinged sole made cracking against the shoe’s heel as one walked.
5. Louis Heel. Crafted for the 5 foot 3 Louis XIV, France’s “Sun King,” in order to make him look taller and, thus, more imposing, these unisex hourglass-shaped heels were flamboyantly decorated to indicate one’s privilege. A pair of circa 1660 heels Louis XIV owned were 5 inches tall and ornately decorated with battle scenes.
4. Poulaines. Also known as crackowes, these 15th century shoes had toes so long and narrow that they often had to be reinforced with whalebone or tied to the leg with a string so that the wearer could walk.
3. Lotus Shoes. In contrast to the incredibly long poulaines, the unbelievably small, ornately embroidered lotus shoes were what Chinese women with bound feet wore from olden times through to the early 20th century.
2. Chestnut Crushing Clogs. These nutty-looking contraptions were, thankfully, not worn as everyday footwear. Rather, they were used in 19th-century France to, as the name implies, separate acorn and chestnut shells from the nut meat, and subsequently grind the nut for flour or feed.
1. Kabkab. Fascinating shoes like these, also known as nalin, were donned by Turkish women when they went to the hammam. Wearing these, women wouldn’t have to step on the steaming, heated floor. It is even thought that these shoes may have influenced the creation of the European chopine!
Which of these shoes do you find the most fascinating? Or, is there something not on the list that intrigues you even more?

An gceapann tú go bhfuil a fhios agat gach cineál bróga a chruthaigh fear agus bean? Bhuel, tá anseo a rith beag do do chuid eolais. Féach an bhfuil tú, i ndáiríre, ar an eolas uile-chuimsitheach sin trí léamh an phoist seo, agus féach ar chúpla bróga a bhfuil a shúilí curtha suas ag an stair.
10. Tá sé seo fíor? Chopine. Le fréamhacha sa 15ú haois Venice, bhí na hardáin dochreidte seo - a d'fhéadfadh a bheith suas le 30 orlach ar airde - siombalach de rang an iompróra; is é an ardán níos airde, is é an stádas an iompróra. Bhí bróga den chineál céanna, an Manchu chopine, mar chuid forleathan de éadaí mná na Síne ársa.
9. Naoi. Caliga. Dá mba saighdiúir tú sa Róimh ársa, ba é an caliga an rud a bheadh ort a chaitheamh nuair a bhí Rómanach timpeall! Leis na sóil tiubh a raibh naoionn iarainn ag na n-iarainn chun iad a tharraingt, a neartú, agus a chosaint, d'fhéadfadh na sandals strappy seo a bheith ina saighdiúir trí go leor siúlóidí uafásacha.
8. Ceacht. Ataderos. Bhí buataisí glúine clóite airgid mar seo, a thagann ó chultúr Chimu na Peiru ársa ón 12ú go an 15ú haois, le bás a fháil dá lá agus dá aois; meastar gur úsáideadh iad i ndealcadh escalon uachtarach.
7. Ceacht. Adelaide Boot. Ainmníodh iad i gcomhair Banríon Consort Uilleam IV, bhí na booties ré Victóireacha seo déanta as leathar síoda nó leathar leanbh, agus ní raibh aon idirdhealú clé-deis acu. Bhí a n-oibreacha ag coinneáil na mban ó na glúine nuair a bhí a gcuid crinolines scandalously swept ar shiúl ag an ghaoth.
6. Ceacht. Slap Shoe Soil. Cruthaíodh iad ar dtús sna 1630idí chun cnámha marcaíochta na bhfear a choinneáil ó dul isteach sa mud, bhí na bróga neamhghnácha seo de rigeur go luath do mhná (cé go raibh éagsúlacht i bhfad níos maisiúla acu). Agus, mar a d'fhéadfadh tú a bheith buille faoi thuairim, tagraíonn an t-ainm suimiúil don fhuaim a rinne an t-aonad hingeáilte ag creapadh i gcoinne an chúl bróga mar a shiúil duine.
5. Tá an t-am ann. Louis Heel. Déanta don 5 troigh 3 Louis XIV, "Rí na gréine" na Fraince, chun é a dhéanamh níos airde agus, dá bhrí sin, níos mó impisiúnaí, bhí na cnocanna unisex seo i gcruth clog saille á maisiú go flamboyant chun sochair a léiriú. Bhí péire cnámha Louis XIV faoi 1660 5 orlach ar airde agus décoite go hálainn le radharcanna cath.
4. Tá an t-am Poulaines. Ar a dtugtar crackowes freisin, bhí na tobar sin ón 15ú haois chomh fada agus chomh caol go gcaithfí cnámh na bhfíor-eachain a neartú go minic nó a cheangal leis an gcosa le sreang ionas gur féidir leis an duine a chaith iad siúl.
3. Tá an t-am ann. Bróg Lotus. I gcodarsnacht leis na poulaines an-fhada, bhí na bróga lotus an-bheag, ornáideacha, an rud a chaith mná na Síne a raibh cosa ceangailte acu ó amanna ársa go dtí an 20ú haois go luath.
2. Seachadadh. Clogs Crushing Chestnut. Bhí na contraptions nuts-ag breathnú, go raibh maith agat, nach raibh a chaitheamh mar bróga laethúil. Ina áit sin, baineadh úsáid astu sa Fhrainc sa 19ú haois chun, mar a léiríonn an t-ainm, craiceann acorn agus caisteal a scaradh ón fheoil cnónna, agus an cnónna a mhionlaigh ina dhiaidh sin le haghaidh plúr nó beatha.
1. an t-am a bhí ann. Kabkab. Bhí bróga suimiúla mar seo, ar a dtugtar nalin freisin, á n-éadaí ag mná na Tuirce nuair a chuaigh siad chuig an hammam. Ag caitheamh iad seo, ní bheadh ar mhná dul ar an urlár steaming, te. Meastar fiú go bhféadfadh tionchar a bheith ag na bróga seo ar chruthú an choipín Eorpaigh!
Cé acu ceann de na bróga seo a fhaigheann tú an chuid is mó suimiúil? Nó, an bhfuil rud éigin nach bhfuil ar an liosta a chuireann níos mó intrigas ort?
