You likely noticed that during the three hundred years covered in this week’s study that religious art remained quite important just as it had been in earlier “art ages.” There were monumental changes, however, in the way the religious subjects were depicted.

Use the textbook and/or online sources to locate and capture three works of religious art. All three pieces should be dealing with the same subject matter— for example, the Crucifixion, mother and child, or the Last Supper. Capture one image from each:

• the Early Renaissance period
• the High Renaissance period
• the Baroque period

Your works of art must either be all paintings or all sculptures.

Place these images in a Word document. Then do the following:

1. Identify each image with the following information:
1. Name of the artist
2. Title of the work
3. Date of the work
4. Medium/materials used to create the work
5. Current location
2. In a well-developed paragraph (4–6 sentences) for each:

1. One to two important historical facts about each piece.
2. Based on your personal observations, describe and analyze how the artist has used at least one of the artistic elements, such as color, composition, or use of light.  You should focus on the same element for all 3 works.

1. In a 6–10-sentence concluding paragraph(s) discuss specifically how religious art has changed compared to each period and geographical region, and what may have been influencing factors behind these changes.
1. How has religious art changed compared to each, based on your observations as to how each artist used the art element you have focused on exploring?
2. What events in history may have been influencing factors behind these changes, and why? 
3. Offer a citation of your sources for each image and the information provided as appropriate.

Need a 1000 word essay unsing MLA Style?

I need two of these questions asweres 500 words each. It should have a good thesis that makes a clear and specific argument. The thesis statement should include specific details and refer to the texts.

 

1. The re-enactors in Tony Horwitz’sConfederates in the Attic are on a quest for authenticity. Are they also “willfully misremembering the past?” Compare their version of the Civil War to the story D.W. Griffith tells in The Birth of a Nation and make an argument about how the memory of the war has been used to imagine and construct ideas about race, citizenship and nation.

 

2. As we have argued in class, the language of the Declaration of Independence is aspirational; it outlines the ideals for an emerging nation in opposition to an imperial power. Using James Welch’s Killing Custer make an argument about how those ideals are present and/or contradicted in the Battle of Little Bighorn and the stories we have told ourselves about it.

 

3.In lecture Kristin has talked about evolving ideas about citizenship and what it means to serve that nation. Nash’s “The Black American’s Revolution” looks at the service of African Americans in the American Revolution and Alcott’s Little Women focuses on the lives of women in the North during the Civil War.  Thinking about the ways that the idea of serving the nation shifted between the Revolutionary War and the Civil War, make an argument about how putting the citizen soldier at the center of U.S. nationalism has been linked to maintaining boundaries of national belonging.

 

4. In Playing Indian, Phil Deloria demonstrates how American colonists used Indians as “oppositional figures” when imagining a national self, while at the same time adopting aspects of “Indianness” to claim an indigenous identity that predated the British. Compare this with Cecilia O’Leary’s examples, in To Die For, of practices of patriotism after the Civil War and make an argument about how national identity have been constructed and contested.
