Description 1. Choose one passage of 1-3 continuous lines from Antigone and quote it. 2. Explain its meaning in context: what are the different perspectives on Antigone’s death and how is this represented OR what are the different explanations of her act and what does this signify? You can also use your notes from class to help with your response, but I want to see your thoughts come through, not just what was included in lecture. 3. Raise 1-3 questions specifically related to this reading for discussion (this can be a question(s) related to your quote, the reading as a whole, something you were confused about, something that stood out to you, etc.). This is an example of you preliminarily engaging with the reading. It benefits your class engagement and gives you another chance to think things through. It will then improve your papers because you will have practiced organizing your ideas and creating a response. I will take note of questions people ask and themes they are interested in and try to bring them up in class. That way, the course will more closely address your concerns.

Description Critical Review Assignment Instructions The purpose of this assignment is to build your critical reading and writing skills by requiring you to isolate key ideas and arguments in scholarly essays and articles. analysis will integrate answers to the following questions: 1) “What is the major argument, or thesis, of each assigned text?”; and 2) “Taken together, what do these texts contribute to a reader’s understanding of the topics and themes they address?” Try not to approach this as a summary, an opinion piece, a personal reflection, or a research essay based on limited sources. A useful way to think about this is that your topic is the readings themselves, not their shared topic. Don’t be fooled by the words “critical review”: task is neither to assess the merits of the assigned readings nor to find something to criticize. Until you have read widely, you aren’t in much of a position to do either, and you pretty much have to go on faith that the assigned items have scholarly integrity and merit.

There are two assignments that I would like you help me to do, sorry I had to put in this request. The first assignment is a primary source essay for my history class. Primary Source Essay 2: The Meaning of Inequality and Liberty History 121 Due Date: March 18 in class. Assignments not turned in during the class period will be considered late. Description: Over the last three weeks, we have read sections from some of the most influential intellectuals of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries including Jean Jacques Rousseau, John Stuart Mill, Friedreich Engels, and Herbert Spencer. All four of these intellectuals considered the meaning of liberty, inequality and belonging during a period of time in which social hierarchies, ideas about empire, and national belonging were in flux. In a four to five page paper please answer the following question using evidence from these four writers. Your answer should be formulated into a standard essay, that uses evidence from the text to support your argument that is laid out in your thesis. You do not need to cite all of these figures and you are free to choose which of the intellectual you will be working with, but you must use evidence from the texts to support your argument. Question: In what ways did ideas about liberty, national belonging, and inequality influence the works of Jean Jacques Rousseau, John Stuart Mills, Friedrich Engels, and Herbert Spencer? How do these figures differ in their approach to questions about inequality, social hierarchies, and the meaning of liberty? Feel free to discuss as many of these intellectuals as you see fit to answering these questions.
