The symbolism was one of the most important literary movements of the late nineteenth century, originated in France and Belgium. In a literary manifesto published in 1886, Jean Moréas defined this new style as "an enemy of teaching, declamation, false sensibility and objective description." For the symbolists, the world is a mystery to be deciphered, and the poet must for it draw the hidden correspondences that unite the sensitive objects (for example, Rimbaud establishes a correspondence between the vowels and the colors in his sonnet Vocales). For this, the use of synesthesia is essential.
Lyndon Johnson
Johnson continued the push for civil rights that had been started by President John F. Kennedy. After JFK's assassination, President Johnson said in an address to Congress: "No memorial oration or eulogy could more eloquently honor President Kennedy's memory than the earliest possible passage of the civil rights bill for which he fought so long." The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was passed within months after the Kennedy assassination.

Through the detailing of their life, Steinbeck intents to describe a family's difficulties during the westward migration.
When Caesar Augustus came to power in Rome, the Republic came to an end. The Roman Republic was a worn-out institution, where civil wars and dictatorships had worn away the power and credibility of the Senate. Governance was impossible. When Caesar Octavianus (his original name), who had already been part of an earlier dictatorship called the Second Triumvirate, assumed as Consul, the Senate (pressured by Roman society, which esteemed him from his dictatorial era) granted him the sum of public power and the title of Augustus. In this way, the transition of the Republic to the Roman Empire occurred, being Caesar Augustus the first Roman emperor.
