b. For each pair you select Write a
fully-developed essay in which you compare and contrast these works.
For each pair,
write a UNIFIED essay,
using complete sentences, in
which you discuss the works in relationship to one another. What is
the point of the comparison? Is the subject matter similar, or is
there some other issue by which the two might be linked? Evaluate
similarities and differences between each two. Consider purposes of
each and its significance within the stylistic/historical/cultural
period and context in which it was created. Also consider:
media/material, size, style, artist, location, etc., as appropriate,
with particular attention to the ways in which these features differ
between these two works.
Do not use Web materials. (this will
result in a 0 (ZERO) for the exam. AND for the course)
Write a fully developed essay of 1-2 pages for each topic, and be sure
to cover the issues fully. Stay
focused on these as ART or ARCHITECTURE.
Do not make
lists, tick points, or write separate essays on each.
Do not write a skimpy or minimal
answer. Avoid hype and superlatives. Discuss as fully as possible.
Use proper terminology and explain what the
terms mean, as appropriate.
-
Select 4 more single works, from either Group A or
Group B, different from the ones you used for the comparison/contrast
essay. Identify them fully, in the sample format, state one
significant art historical fact for
each, in sentence form (up to one paragraph long).
-
EXTRA CREDIT (Optional, up to 20% extra). Select
another pair from the choices, again none of the ones used for either
part above, and identify, as above, then write a compare-and-contrast
essay, as above.
Form your answers from both the text and PPT
videos. This NOT a research project. DO NOT go surfing the web for
your essay material. If you use any sources, give proper citations.
Do not take data from text or PPT videos verbatim-- paraphrase -- use
your own words and synthesize the information, and add your own
reflections to these sources from looking at the works and considering
the issues. Do not limit yourself to the short segments on the
specific works, but consider also the information and opinion given on
the eras and their concerns, as well as other examples of similar
monuments, as long as you are careful to distinguish the one here from
the others in relevant ways.
