What is the value of studying the humanities in a business or technical curriculum? How might a topic such
as ancient art enhance contemporary life?
Dq2
Choose a work of art from the reading in Chapter 1. Discuss how the work is a reflection of the ancient
culture that created it. Also, did anything particularly surprise or impress you about the work of art or the
ancient people who created it?
The architecture of the Greeks and Romans has influenced people for centuries. When the founding fathers
of America began to design Washington, DC, how were they influenced by the Greeks and Romans?
Dq2
Theater
This week, we took a brief look at Shakespeare’s The Tempest (see the Assignments section). This five-act
play opens with a storm at sea (a tempest) and throughout, Shakespeare has planted allusions to
apparitions and magic, such as the character Ariel who, at times, appears to be invisible to the other
characters. It is a given that the special effects, such as those often used in films, to actually give the stage
the appearance of a deadly tempest or actually make Ariel an invisible presence are not achievable on the
stage. To fill in this gap, audiences suspend disbelief.
In this thread, let’s discuss the power and limitations of theatrical imagination. Please feel free to draw from
productions you have seen. (The old high school productions count, too!) Why are we willing to suspend
disbelief when we see a play, yet we demand so much more from a film production? Do you think that the
limitation on special effects and alternative demand on the audience member to suspend disbelief is a
weakness or a strength of the theatrical experience? Would you rather see The Tempest on stage or in film?
Why?
Dq2
This week, we have looked at several works of art that utilized allegorical themes. One of the most common
uses of imagery in the medieval and Renaissance periods is allegory. What is an allegory? Describe how at
least one of the examples of art in this week’s lecture or one of this week’s readings is allegorical in nature.
Why, in your opinion, was allegory so prevalent during these periods? Is it still important in contemporary
literature? Why or why not?
Rubens
Line, color, hue, balance, form and perspective were some of the key concepts covered in this week’s
tutorial. Use the example of a painting by Peter Paul Rubens and discuss how one or more of this week’s key
concepts are featured in the painting.
Identify the painting by title, and include citations for any material you’ve researched.
Dq2
Given the information from this week’s reading on the Enlightenment, the New Rationalism, and the
Scientific Revolution, how did advancements in science and reasoning change the lives of people at this
time? In addition, what effects did the Industrial Revolution have on the world?
In the 19th century, the camera was a revolutionary invention. Did the invention of the camera change the
arts? Why or why not?
Is there a relationship between movements such as realism and impressionism and the camera?
Dq2
For this week’s discussion, choose realism or impressionism as a basis for your posts and discuss how your
choice is manifested in any area of the humanities (i.e., painting, sculpture, literature, music, etc.), and give
an example from any discipline in the humanities to illustrate how realism or impressionism influenced the
work of art. Please be sure to give an analysis of how the work of art was influenced by the movement.
Devry HUM 303 Week 6 Discussions Latest
Dq1
This week, we looked at several examples of early modernist art such as Cubism, Fauvism, futurism, and
expressionism. Let’s discuss the relationships between these aesthetic categories and the sociopolitical
climate of the period.
How did the sociopolitical climate of the time period, including the two world wars, influence artists?
Dq2
Let’s connect the themes of the three readings and the lecture for this week to talk about how the ways
feminist literature has influenced contemporary thinking?
In your first post, share what you see the main themes or issues that were important the writer of at least
one of the following feminist works:
Be sure to reference the specific elements of at least one of the readings or audio in your response. We’ll
follow up as a class to connect these historical issues to present-day discussions of women and society.
Although controversial art is not a topic exclusive to the 20th century, the distribution of information
regarding controversial art has increased with the proliferation of media. Please discuss an example of a
20th century controversial work of art from any discipline of the humanities (music, literature, sculpture,
film, etc.) and an accompanying statement from the artist(s). Based on your example, to what extent does
controversial art make a social contribution? Are governments ever justified in censoring art?
Dq2
Pop Art
What were some of the influences of the pop art phenomenon? Should we consider the creative elements
of popular culture, which are very often mass produced works of art?

This week (Part I) you are to create a complete Annotated Bibliography for 2 academic scholarly sources,
which include your introduction and thesis, publication details, and the annotation (see below for examples
of each component). In week 4, you will complete this process for 3 additional sources. A total of 5
academic-scholarly sources are required for completion of your final research project.
Good annotations
capture publication details,
Offers the student’s introduction and thesis to the best extent s/he knows it at this point in time,
identifies key terms (using quotation marks, and citing a page in parentheses);
Locates one or two quotations to be used in the final research project; and
Evaluates the ways in which this article is important and has helped the student to focus his/her
understanding.
It never ceases to amaze me that we pay so little attention to the greatest bulk of our intelligence—that is,
the quality of thinking that helps us adapt, deal with stress, love, and live lives of fulfillment. Aristotle
argued that educating the mind and not the heart is no education at all. For decades, educators have
focused on cognitive skills because they are testable and, therefore, metrics can be applied to them. This
kind of education, testing, and then metrically interpreting results has governed American education for
decades. And the results have been losses of creativity, imagination, courtesy, civic interest, and the ability
to invent businesses that serve people and advance us as a society. Although measurable skills are
important, they are not exclusively important, and in fact lose value when separated from an education in
the heart, the spirit, and the abstract qualities that make students fully human and excellent participants in
a healthy society.
Mezirow, J. (2003). Transformative learning as discourse. Journal of Transformative Education, 1(1), 58-63
Annotation Example:
In this article, Mezirow (2003) makes a distinction between “instrumental” and “communicative” learning.
“Instrumental learning” refers to those processes which measure and gage learning, such as tests, grades,
comments, quizzes, attendance records and the like. “Communicative learning,” on the other hand, refers
to understanding created over time between individuals in what Mezirow calls “critical-dialectical-
discourse,” (p. 59) which is a fancy way of saying, important conversation between 2 or more
speakers.Another key idea Mezirow discusses is “transformative learning,” (p. 61) which changes the mind,
the heart, the values and beliefs of people so that they may act better in the world. Mezirow argues that
“hungry, desperate, homeless, sick, destitute, and intimidated people obviously cannot participate fully and
freely in discourse” (p. 59). On the one hand, he is right: there are some people who cannot fully engage
because their crisis is so long and deep, they are prevented. But, I don’t think Mezirow should make the
blanket assumption that everyone in unfortunate circumstances is incapable of entering the discourse
meaningfully. One thing is certain: if we gave as much attention to the non-instrumental forms of
intelligence–like goodness, compassion, forgiveness, wonder, self-motivation, creativity, humor, love, and
other non-measured forms of intelligence in our school curriculums, we’d see better people, actors in the
world, and interested investigators than we currently have graduating high school
