COMPARE AND CONTRAST ESSAY

THE TELEGRAPH vs TELESCOPE


Although the culture of men is an integral area, parts of its society arose as a result of the creative capacity of a selected group of men who contributed to the development of the civilization, for example, Hans Lipperhey and Samuel Finley Breese Morse, with their inventors the telescope and the telegraph respectively , both inventors while there will of course be some similarities are similar in many ways, but also the facts that a rough comparison of these two inventors revels some differences, although their similitaries, there will also be noteworthy differences.

One similarity is creative ability. Although, Hans Lipperhey was born in Wesel (western Germany) 1768, Samuel Finley Breese Morse was born in Charlestown, Massachusetts, on April 27, 1791. Both, Lipperhey and Morse showed to the art and the creative ability with the elaboration of two inventions, furthermore as small aspects as your famility. Moreover, both were arranged to sell the patent on the instrument to the government of their country, but without achieving success.

However, they have also striking differences. One obvious difference is the nationality, because Lipperhey is German and Morse is American. Furthermore, small aspects as their date of birth demonstrate that both inventors lived ages where the splendor of the society was in height, on the one hand the colonies on North America were in integration process to comprise what at present he is known like the Unite states, on the other part, the North of Germany was part of the empire of Napoleon Bonaparte, done that would mark the life and build of these inventors.

In addition, while the American was accustomed to that new form of life in community, its creativity was developed very quickly, although, your personality changed with the time. Your bad mood was highly every time. In contrast with LIPPERHEY was quiet and radical but conservative.

Other areas of difference are the scientific and electromagnetic theorems that these two men used for their inventions. The electromagnetism compared with optics became the base for another invention the telephone (Bell. 1876), while the optics has been very useful for the exploration of the universe.

Definetely, both inventors are a good example of intelligent people that they worried to improve the quality of life of the man, always thought that he was the best thing for the man, however, practically both Hans Lipperhey and Samuel Finley Breese Morse are completely opposite personal situations, the telegraph to had a major meant in the life of the human being.
