Write a research essay on a single work of art or a single artist or dynasty of artistic merit.

Write a research essay on a single work of art or a single artist or dynasty of artistic merit. You may also consider a single exhibition or display of art showing at a museum that features Buddhist Art. Currently large museums in NYC such as the Met, Brooklyn Museum, or Rubin are open to the public with limited capacity in light of Covid-19 restrictions. Alternatively, you can scour the many online resources that are available for Asian Art (some listed below). In the case of choosing a single artist or exhibition of artists you will focus on the curatorial arrangement and design, focus, etc., as much as on the individual works themselves. Examples of dynasties are the Gupta or Pala dynasties in South Asia, the Song dynasty in China, the Nara or Kamakura period in Japan. There are other possible dynasties as well that may be considered. Consult with me for resources and approaches if you need to.

Research should reflect how the chosen work or works (along with the curatorial practices, if applicable) relate to themes from the course. Themes such as Buddhist sectarianism (Mahayana, Theravada, Vajrayana, Pureland, Chan, etc.), Buddhism and regionalism, Buddhist conversion, philosophy, Buddhist doctrine, Religious syncretism, among others may be considered. Are such themes seen in your chosen work or works of art? If so how and in what way?

Similarly, you may compare and contrast your chosen subject with a specific textual source from our readings out of The Experience of Buddhism on Classes resources. Try to choose appropriate textual sources. For example, if your chosen work is from Thailand it might be better to choose a text that is not Mahayana in origin. Origins of the text can usually be found in the notes at the end of a reading. Remember that Pali texts are associated most strongly with Theravada and other schools of Early or Mainstream Buddhist traditions. Alternatively, Sanskrit works or works translated from Chinese and Tibetan are typically associated with the different branches of Mahayana (Vajrayana, Pure Land, Chan, Zen, etc.).

Bibliography:
Your research essay must include a bibliography with at least 5 sources from a trusted academic research source in addition to entries related to the work or works of art and any curatorial essays or ephemera associated with an exhibition that is published by or available from the gallery or museum. You can use either of the guides listed below for creating your entries. Make sure you are consistent in whatever you choose. You may use MLA or Chicago style for citing your references, but be consistent throughout.

Write a research essay about a current, debatable New York City issue.

Write a research essay about a current, debatable New York City issue. Your essay should be structured around a clear and compelling thesis that takes a position on a debatable topic — that is, one about which reasonable people may disagree. For Essay 3, you should assume that your audience will be open to lively and reasoned (but not ad hominem) debate, and not necessarily predisposed to agree with you. As you develop a strong persuasive argument, make sure to draw upon specific evidence from your research to support your claims, and acknowledge and address any potential counterarguments. Also make sure to avoid any rhetorical fallacies!

As part of your essay, you should use at least three sources. For example, you might cite a New York Times article for relevant facts that support your argument, or cite a report produced by a New York City agency for relevant statistics. Make sure to use your sources selectively and analytically. You should use MLA format and include a Works Cited list at the end of your paper.

Write a letter of complaint. Follow the rules for a formal letter, and use the full-block style. The complaint may be about anything you wish (such as malfunctioning equipment, poor building maintenance, or disruptive noises from a nearby business). You can base your letter on a true experience, or you can make up all the details you need.
Please note that a form letter or a template cannot be used in constructing your response to question 2. When a form letter or template is used, you are giving little to no thought to wording or formatting, and you are not actually creating your own complaint; you are simply filling in the blanks of someone else’s work.

Write an argumentative paper that either supports or criticizes the effects of gentrification as seen inSan Jose/Silicon Valley/greater Bay Area.

Write an argumentative paper that either supports or criticizes the effects of gentrification as seen inSan Jose/Silicon Valley/greater Bay Area. You should include analysis of sources and well as a concern for how this issue impacts the people living within our community. You can also include personal experience to help support your argument.

Purpose
Your purpose in this assignment is to use all everything you’ve learned thus far about analyzing and building an argument along with your skills as a researcher into to build a longer, research-driven argumentative paper about gentrification. You will argue for either for or against gentrification using both your own analysis and outside sources. By the end of the paper, your audience should be able both to understand your topic better and appreciate your opinion on the issue you have chosen.

Audience
The audience you are writing to is a lawmaker who does not live in San Jose proper, meaning they are not familiar with how gentrification impacts people in concrete ways. You do not need to address them directly, but your paper should re-contextualize this issue from an abstract political debate to a persuasive paper about how a real issue impacts people living in a community.

Describe how the use of color and line affect the emotional quality of the illustration (is it energetic? somber?)

-Provide a brief summary of each object or building’s origin, in addition to the actual “compare/contrast” portion of the paper. How you arrange the sequence of introduction is up to you

-I recommend, when possible, listing the items in chronological order. Please also be sure to describe the individual works in detail as you summarize the works or as part of your compare/contrast

-How does the style and shape of the object or building:
–reveal the artistic / architectural influences of your example?
–relate to the purpose of the object or building?
–what iconography is present and what does it mean?

-Describe your examples with specific details. For example, a painted album leaf from the Akbarnama is not just “very colorful,” but uses specific colors, so name them! Describe how the use of color and line affect the emotional quality of the illustration (is it energetic? somber?)

In what ways did geography influence the development of Bronze Age social structures, religions and cultures?

1. In what ways did geography influence the development of Bronze Age social structures, religions and cultures? How
did societies in river valleys compare to other ancient societies such as the Greeks?

2. What are some important lessons on life and leadership found in the Epic of Gilgamesh? How are these lessons
relevant to modern society? How can you incorporate some of these into your own life?

3. What were the roles and value of stories in ancient societies? Why are they important to historians? How do ancient
stories and their roles in their society compare to modern stories and their roles in our society?

4. How do Mesopotamian and Egyptian government, society, religion and culture compare? How do their phases of
development and decline compare? Why are they similar or different?

5. If you fell in a time machine and had to survive in any period of Bronze Age Egypt or Mesopotamia, which specific
period and location would you choose and why? What would you do to survive?

NOTES FROM THE PROFESSOR ON THE LAST PAPER YOU DID:

What is your evidence that hunter-gatherers have a healthier diet? If acquiring food is more difficult and often does not yield enough, how can they also have more time for art and music?

Does the article you cited actually discuss archeological evidence of hunter-gatherer societies or give any actual historical data about them? Does it list any sources?

Why are the developments of capitalism and political organizations milestones in the emergence of complex civilizations? You listed these but never explained why.

Why would a flaked stone arrowhead only be created in a HG community and not in an agricultural community? Are farmers not allowed to also hunt or defend themselves?

Be careful concerning the sources you use to derive and support your answers. Your article came form the CATO institute and while there is nothing wrong with them (I occasionally listen to their podcast) they produce political articles, not historical articles.
