Jansons Basic history of western art

There are multiple themes involved in Romanticism. The theme I connect most with is Nature. “The Slave Ship” by Joseph Mallord William Turner really caught my eye. Turners Contemporaries believed he gone mad since this wasn’t his typical type of work. This Piece was inspired by a poem that expressed sharks follow ships in typhoons by smelling sickness and death. This Paint is a close up of human suffering that is full of emotion. The bold colors representing the bloodstained waters and raging seas. The struggle is shown through arms reaching out for help. Bodies looking as if they are about to sink to the bottom and be lost forever. The wrecked ships show the danger of the sea vs man. “The Slave Ship” pulls every emotional string attached to the viewer.

paper, 4-5 pages, double spaced, is as follows: Chose at least one work of art {it could be more} from three different cultures that are illustrated in your textbook. In your own words, tell me the characteristics found in this work of art that show it is from a particular culture.For example, Greek Art was sometimes based on Geometry and pattern. The Greeks also were the first culture to create a free-standing sculpture. Greek artists were also known for their black-figure and red-figure technique in pottery.

In each image you choose from the book, tell me how the art created by this culture may add to the story of art. Give details. Please do not just quote from the book. Use your own words and opinions and observations! You can also gather more information online, but shape into your own words! If I feel you just created an Internet paper you will get a Zero!

Finally,tell me in your own words, why YOU think it is important for todays society, to learn and study the past. Any question, please feel free to contact me.

Task 8

In this week’s Task you will explore prejudice and discrimination.

Step 1:

Read chapter 18 in Together: The Science of Social Psychology.

Step 2:

Conduct a search, (e.g., YouTube or Ted Talk) to find at least four videos on the topic of prejudice, stereotypes, and discrimination.

Step 3:

Using the videos you chose, develop working definitions of prejudice, stereotypes, and discrimination.

Step 4:

The Implicit Association Test (IAT) is an online test that measures attitudes and beliefs that one may not be willing to admit to. It was developed by Project Implicit at Harvard University. It is found at: https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/education.html.

The IAT addresses several categories of associations. Each test takes just a few minutes to take.

Take three tests.

TASK

This week’s Task comes in two parts:

1. Write one paragraph for each term defining prejudice, stereotypes, and discrimination.

2. Write a 300-500 word paper discussing:

a. the etiology of prejudice, stereotypes and discrimination

b. how bias has changed over the years

c. how prejudice and biases can be improved

Measuring Carbon Footprints

.

Do these two surveys:

https://www3.epa.gov/carbon-footprint-calculator/ (Links to an external site.)

https://www.nature.org/en-us/get-involved/how-to-help/consider-your-impact/carbon-calculator/ (Links to an external site.)

Then write responses to the following:

• What information from the surveys do you find the most powerful?
• What rhetorical appeals do you think gives these surveys strength?
• How might these surveys help you develop ideas for Paper 2?

When answering these, think about using full paragraphs, and quoting passages that help support your explanations. I know they’re not essays with clear single writers, but make no mistake: there is writing involved, perspectives, and lines of reasoning, though it’s a nontraditional text. Do the best you can.

The Reader Response will be graded by a simple rubric you can see here, and must be done by the time we review the piece in class. Consider how you might use the Reader Responses to advance your work on the papers we’re working on.

This is in a Discussion forum, and other can respond to what you write, but having the exchange of ideas in here is not required.
