Hi guys. I have a history paper due for my history class. I’ve uploaded a file regarding what arguments can be made from the book. I will also give you access to the book as needed. Here is information regarding it:

In your five-page analytical essay, you will corroborate or refute a main argument of my book (see list below). State the argument clearly, using brief quotations if possible and page references from The Rise of Western Power. 

Present solid arguments and evidence from at least four outside sources (the textbook does not count as an outside source). For your outside sources, use only scholarly works, such as articles from our library search engine, and books by university presses. Cite full bibliographical references (see Essay Mechanics below).

Fill out the and send to your TA for feedback and guidance the Analytical Essay Worksheet(You will receive one point toward your analytical essay score after you completely fill out the worksheet and can receive a second point for thoroughly revising it under the supervision of your teaching assistant.)

Consider showing drafts of your work to either your TA or me for comments and suggestions (drafts will be accepted only until the Friday before the final week of class).

How to Research Your Topic

Let’s say that you have decided to test the following contention of the book: “Fear of speculative philosophy stifled Islamic intellectual development after al-Ghazali.” Do a series of searches using Google, such as “stifled Islamic intellectual development al-Ghazali” and “Islamic philosophical stagnation al-Ghazali” and “philosophical stagnation al-Ghazali, etc.” In each case, be sure to click on the option “more” and select from the drop-down menu “books.” Take a close look at all of the entries that seem promising based on the brief summaries. Some books, for which there is only a “snippet view” will be worth checking out of the library. You will also have to check out of the library those books that Google Books does not allow you to view adequately. If any particular book is unavailable at our library. (books usually arrive within a week).

Search similar phrases in our library search engine. You can undertake the same kind of searches for any of the major arguments of the textbook. Finding the appropriate phrases to search can be a little tricky, so be sure to play around with potential phrasing.

Essay Overview:

This assignment asks you to identify a work of art from the Renaissance, using the timeline indicated in the book. Your analysis must be a description of the work – using elements of design, as we have discussed in class. Be sure to include a title, the name of the artist and a date for when the work was created. Be sure to identify the work as either Southern or Northern Renaissance and explain how it either typifies or defies the conventions of the Renaissance.

Please be sure to focus on the work and not on the biological information of the artist.

Presentation:
Use the screen so that the whole class can view image. Identify the artist, date, place – either Northern or Southern Renaissance. Suggested topics would be to identify key characteristics of the Renaissance style, general themes and/or meanings and any significant biographical information of the artist. Recorded voice/audio is a requirement.

This is not a formal presentation – just be sure to introduce it and explain why it is interesting to you. Think of it as starting a conversation which the rest of us will finish.

This paper must be at least three (3) doubled-spaced pages, prepared with one-inch margins. 12- point font in either Times/Times New Roman must be used. MLA formatting is required. Any source must be properly cited and include a works cited page. Be advised, this submission is subject to Turn-It-In anti-plagiarism software. A failure to comply with the University’s Policy on Academic Integrity will result in the issuing of a zero and the work-in-question will then undergo a review by Student Conduct. See the Student Handbook for details.

Analysis:

The purpose of this analysis is to look closely at one work of Renaissance art, or do a comparison of two related pieces, in order to better understand the Renaissance. An example is as follows: The color, shapes and subject of Raphael’s Madonna exemplifies the style of High Renaissance.
or
Contrasting the design styles of Brunelleschi and Ghiberti, and recognizing how their respective work ultimately influenced the iconic Renaissance structure, the Duomo.

Search Google Patents (www.google.com/patents) or the database at the US Patent and Trademark Office (http://www.uspto.gov) for a utility patent of a product or related to automobiles. Read the patent document carefully. Only (AUTOMOBILE) related patents are acceptable. Write a 500 word or more essay about the patent you selected and was awarded between 1980 and today.

Use your own words (the way you understand the document) instead of lifting words or phrases from the patent document. Watch out for PLAGIARISM. Your essay should have 4 parts:

Part 1. Patent name, name of the person who applied for the patent, name of the patent owner, patent date, and patent number.

Part 2. In your own words, what does the product or process do? Why is it an innovation that deserves a patent.

Part 3. In your own words, what does this patent claim to do?

Part 4. Your own thoughts about the patent. Why did this patent interest you?

Attach the fist page of the actual patent document to your write up. Your essay must separate the topics into Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 and Part 4. Watch out for PLAGIARISM. Plagiarism will not be tolerated. You will automatically get an (F) grade on your assignment if you plagiarize.
