Abstract
This paper analyzes and compares the works of Lawrence Stone and Bailey Stone. The paper uncovers the ways in which these historical revolutionists place the revolution within the larger context of international relations at the time. The paper primarily focuses on the English Revolution and the French Revolution.
From the Paper
"Lawrence Stone and Bailey Stone both delve into comprehensive investigations surrounding the evolution of revolution. While Lawrence Stone aims to better understand the root Causes of the English Revolution, Bailey Stone explores the role that external forces played in the French Revolution. Both works are parallel in that they do not primarily focus on state affairs, but dive deep into the social fabric of the times in which revolution organically evolved. Lawrence Stone and Bailey stone examine external and internal factors, and they subsequently assess revolution in terms of the socio-political, cultural, economic, and international tensions of the times. As a result, they present a more thorough macro-historical perspective on revolution than previously offered by historians."

Abstract
Holocaust denial has become one of the most important vehicles for contemporary anti-Semitism. Some scholars believe it is the invention of a collection of long-time anti-Semites and apologists for Hitler. The Nazis themselves can be thought of as the first Holocaust revisionists, for they tried to conceal their extermination program behind euphemisms, such as the "final solution to the Jewish problem". This paper shows that, nevertheless, it is important to understand that Holocaust denial and other forms of revisionism also bring up ideas of relativism and truth. When critically analyzed, the motives behind such historians can open a floodgate to how society interprets humanity. Furthermore, the paper shows that, when deep-rooted anti-Semitic connotations are thrown into the mix, it is a recipe for why Holocaust denial is so significant to the contemporary response to the Holocaust.
From the Paper
"The main problem that I have with Holocaust revisionists is that they work backwards when compared to traditional forms of historic reporting. As stated before, historians take facts, make analyses, and finally draw interpretations to reach a conclusion. Revisionists already have a conclusion. Before anything else, Holocaust revisionists believe that survivor witnesses lied, documents left by Nazi's were forged and or misinterpreted, photographs were faked, and a myriad of other claims that rattle the cages of conscious thought. From here Holocaust revisionists begin to work backwards in proving their theories. If no letter exists stating that Hitler called for a final solution for the Jews, then the theory of Hitler's final solution never existed. If there are no photos of the gas chambers, then they never existed. This form of historic reporting wanders off the traditional path of revisionists."

Abstract
This paper discusses Martin Luther's ideas and beliefs. It portrays Luther as one who planted the seeds for revolution in the concept of the church and Christianity, but who acted on his own conservative beliefs. It raises pertinent issues as to whether Luther actually was who the public perceived him to be.
From the Paper
"The European world of the late fifteenth and early sixteenth century was one ensconced in the assumption of Christian values and, moreover, the authority of the Catholic Church. Likewise, it was a world of great injustice, misappropriation of power and perversion of morality. Such was most apparently epitomized by the vast disparity between classes of suffocating poverty and ever-growing wealth. And the necessary correlation between wealth and power was quite explicit in a Church that, to many ways of thinking, was a fat and corrupt entity whose most driving priority had become the exploitation of the weak. Martin Luther was born into this world in 1483, and not of a particular familial disposition to protest the circumstances."

This paper discusses how Henry influences today?s radical, federal-building-bombing, gun-toting, survivalist, home-schooling militia groups.
From the Paper
?In this age of revisionist history, the time has come to talk of many things that only a few years ago may have been overlooked. There exists today a certain openness to the possibility that not every one of the men who founded our nation was a saint. That, in many cases, if they were to be magically transplanted to the present, in addition to being a little astonished at the flying machines, they might find themselves entirely at odds with the very government they helped to create and the society that has built itself around that government.?
