  Assignment 1 (200 words)

  http://www.victorianweb.org/authors/arnold/writings/doverbeach.html

  Assignment 2 (300 words)

  http://www.jimmysantiagobaca.com/greenchile.html

  How is this poem “Green Chile” a love poem? Compare the kind of love this poem illustrates (and it could be more than one kind of love) to the kind of love that Sharon Olds’ “Last Night” illustrates. In Olds’ poem, dragonflies are the dominant image. In Santiago’s poem, chile peppers are the dominant image. What do these images share in terms of the message they portray? Be specific and think broadly!

  Last Night

  by Sharon Olds

  The next day, I am almost afraid.

  Love? It was more like dragonflies

  in the sun, 100 degrees at noon,

  the ends of their abdomens stuck together, I

  close my eyes when I remember. I hardly

  knew myself, like something twisting and

  twisting out of a chrysalis,

  enormous, without language, all

  head, all shut eyes, and the humming

  like madness, the way they writhe away,

  and do not leave, back, back,

  away, back. Did I know you? No kiss,

  no tenderness—-more like killing, death-grip

  holding to life, genitals

  like violent hands clasped tight

  barely moving, more like being closed

  in a great jaw and eaten, and the screaming

  I groan to remember it, and when we started

  to die, then I refuse to remember,

  the way a drunkard forgets. After,

  you held my hands extremely hard as my

  body moved in shudders like the ferry when its

  axle is loosed past engagement, you kept me

  sealed exactly against you, our hairlines

  wet as the arc of a gateway after

  a cloudburst, you secured me in your arms till I slept—-

  that was love, and we woke in the morning

  clasped, fragrant, buoyant, that was

  the morning after love.

  Answer:

  1. After reading the first five paragraphs of the story, how do you feel about Mme. Loisel? Do you like her or not? Why? Does your opinion of her change by the end of the story?
  2. What is the conflict in the story?
  3. Locate the climax in the story. Is there a resolution to the conflict?
  4. What role does French society play in the story?
  5. How well does paragraph 105 sum up the point of the story? What do you think is the story’s theme?
  6. Does this story have a moral? If so, what is it, and is it stated explicitly or merely implied?
  7. What do you think is Mme. Loisel’s response to Mme. Forestier’s telling her that the necklace was merely paste? Write a conclusion to the story that describes her response.
  8. Read: http://rapgenius.com/Raymond-carver-little-things-lyrics#lyric Write an short essay comparing the ending of “The Necklace” with that of Raymond Carver’s “Popular Mechanics”. What is the effect of the ending on your reading of each story?

  9. Using steps 1-7, write out your thoughts specifically on steps 1-3 based on the story, write out what you believe the theme is to this story, “The Necklace.” Make sure your statement of theme follows steps 4-7.

  There is no precise formula that can take you to the center of a story’s meaning and help you to articulate it. However, several strategies are practical and useful once you have read the story. Apply these pointers during a second or third reading:

  1. Pay attention to the title of the story. It often provides a lead to a major symbol or to the subject around which the theme develops.
  2. Look for details in the story that have potential for symbolic meanings. Careful consideration of names, places, objects, minor characters, and incidents can lead you to the central meaning.
  3. Decide whether the protagonist changes or develops some important insight as a result of the action. Carefully examine any generalizations the protagonist or narrator makes about the events in the story.
  4. When you formulate the theme of the story in your own words, write it down in one or two complete sentences that make some point about the subject matter.
  5. Be certain that your expression of the theme is a generalized statement rather than a specific description of particular people, places, and incidents in the story.
  6. Be wary of using clichés as a way of stating theme. They tend to short circuit ideas instead of generating them.
  7. Be aware that some stories emphasize theme less than others. Stories that have as their major purpose adventure, humor, mystery, or terror may have little or no theme.

  Website Review Paper

  $20.00

  Overview
  This project will allow you to explore the wealth of excellent online resources available to art history students. Since your textbook includes only an overview of major works of art and art historical issues, this assignment will allow you to focus on a work or issue in greater detail as it is presented online on a museum or other educational website. By studying a site and presenting a report on that site to your classmates, you will begin to develop a collection of free trustworthy resources at your fingertips, as well as a discriminating eye for scholarly art historical analysis.
  Learning Outcomes

   By the end of this assignment, you will have:

  • Become familiar with a diverse selection of credible online resources in art history
  • Learned how to glean useful knowledge from these websites that will aid in your understanding of art history
  • Developed an in-depth report on one of these website

  Task Description

  Review the websites below and select ONE on which you will focus. You can select any one of the sites depending on your interest in a particular region or era. For that site, familiarize yourself with most of the links therein and concepts and artworks covered. Develop a report on this site for the benefit of your classmates in which you summarize the main ideas presented, provide an in-depth description of a couple of those ideas, apply them to the material presented in the appropriate chapter in your textbook (i.e. ancient Greece and Rome, Renaissance Art, Baroque Art, etc), and bring in relevant research to support your observations. Also, bring in a couple of these images as illustrations of these concepts, including one or more of the works considered in the website. Consider the following questions as you proceed: on what does the site focus? Is it informational, argumentative, etc?; What can we learn about the art and its culture that the textbook does not provide?; What questions do you still have? What have you discovered through further research that adds to our understanding of artist, issue, etc? You may come up with other questions and answers, but these are a good place to start.

  Process & Requirements:

  1) Thoroughly review your chosen website. Create an outline or diagram on paper as you do this so that you can better understand how the site is designed and what topics are covered. In your own words, summarize the main ideas. Note the direction or purpose of the site. Right click and save a couple of the images that you believe are good illustrations of these ideas. Or, search for these images online and import them into your report. Note any artists or works that are covered both on the website and in your textbook and compare the information given on them. If available, please make sure that you credit the artist and work by giving the name, title, date, and medium!

  2) Conduct a little bit of research online on this topic. Try to determine the website’s accuracy, learn more about the topic, and/or compare it with other works by the same artist or from the same period by seeking out a good, online resource on the subject. These sites are good places to start: http://arthistoryresources.net/ARTHLinks.html; http://www.besthistorysites.net/index.php/art-history; and http://smarthistory.khanacademy.org/ . Find 1 good source and integrate any information found here into your presentation, if relevant to your topic. Make sure you cite your source by author and/or site name within your presentation. Please note that sites like Wikipedia or an unverifiable source (personal blog, etc.) are NOT acceptable sources for this presentation.
