HUM 112 Week 3 Discussion
Please respond to one of the following, using resources from this week's Learn and those below, as the basis of your response:
Option 1:
· Listen to one composition (for a symphony) by Haydn or Mozart, either at the websites below or in this week's Music Folder.
· Identify the work that you have chosen, and describe the way in which the composition expresses the specific qualities of the classical music style. Use at least two key terms from the textbook related to that particular music style.
· Explain what you like or admire about the work.
· Compare it to a specific modern musical work for which you might use the term classic or classical.
Option 2:
· Explain whether you think an autobiographical or fictional account by a slave (such as Phillis Wheatley and Olaudah Equiano) is more persuasive than a biographical or fictional account by a white author (such as John Gabriel Stedman or Aphra Behn).
· Explain whether you believe the representations of slavery in the visual arts (such as William Blake's illustrations, William Hackwood's cameo, or John Singleton Copley's painting) were more compelling and convincing of the injustices of slavery than the literary representations already mentioned. In your explanations, use specific examples.
· Identify the literary or art form in modern times that you think is most effective at depicting injustice.
