Primary Document Analysis

/in /by

As the United States became a global power by the early 1900s, international and domestic forces pressed upon American society to begin attempting to redefine exactly who an American was. The 14th Amendment to the Constitution during the Reconstruction Era had defined citizenship in national terms and presumably applied to all those living in newly acquired territories around the globe. Coupled with the massive waves of European immigration, the nation grappled with incorporating so many people of incredibly diverse backgrounds and extending the associated rights and privileges that came with American citizenship. These two documents express the evolution of concerns that were generated through perceived threats (both real and imagined) to American society and culture and propose solutions to the critical question of who and what an American was in the early 20th century.

Answer the following two questions in an essay with a MINIMUM length of TWO (2) FULL PAGES:

1. What are the major arguments contained within each of these documents? How do they compare to one another?

2. Are there parallels in their arguments to modern debates within American society? If so, in what specific way(s)?

Please remember to use specific evidence from these documents to support your arguments.

Assignment 1:

After finishing this week’s readings( the readings are upload below in the attachments as Reader1-3& Reader 4-5), please focus this week’s post on the questions below.

Remember: the idea here is to think carefully about the questions, but you don’t need to worry as much about producing a perfectly polished text. Your post should be a few sentences for each question and please write this post on your own before you look at your classmates’ posts. I want you to first think independently.

1.    What’s one idea about this week’s lectures and readings that you found most intriguing or surprising? Why is it intriguing or surprising to you?

2.    Violence played an important role in the Manchu conquest of China proper. In the city of Yangzhou, Chinese men resisted the Manchus for days. How did the author portray the Manchus in this event? From whose perspective was this story told? (Please link this with reading#2 to get a better idea.) How would you describe the process of the Manchu conquest?

3.    For readings #4 and 5, what type of behavior are the speaker and the writer promoting in their lectures and writings? The purpose? Do they believe it is easy for people to learn to be civil to one another? What assumption do they make about human nature? Do you agree with these assumptions

Assignment 2: Debate paper: The Success of the Qing

5 PAGES MINIMUM!!

You need to write both authors( Ho & Rawski) in the paper and try your best to flesh out the validity and importance of that particular author’s points.!

Your textbook, the three PDF documents, and our readings in the reader should be your sources. Make sure to use concrete evidence for your arguments and cite them properly.( Except reader1-3 and reader 4-5, all the left 6 attachments are for the debate paper)

This paper is to train you to read secondary sources critically and to think as a historian. You are going to be reading three articles: Ho Ping-ti 1967, Rawski 1996, and Ho Ping-ti 1998.

The central question debated here is about the success of the Qing. These two authors gave their arguments and provided their evidence. Their arguments were very different. In this Review/Debate paper, I want you to:

1)  accurately summarize their arguments on the success of the Qing

2)  enumerate the main evidence/ primary sources they used

3)  point out the limitation of their arguments

4) offer your verdict of this debate. (Of course, you can apply all the knowledge you have accumulated up to this point to help you reach that verdict.)

In addition, 5) One term came up a lot in this debate is “Sinicization.” Please make sure to think about this term and look at how these two authors used the term.

I want you to have at least 1 paragraph to cover these 5 important points.

Part 1: The Choreographer

Thank you!!

This week- week 3-  we are looking at Choreography and the Choreographer and The Dancer.

Part 1: The Choreographer:

Please see the attached pdf for a brief summary of this chapter in your text book and review the reading, viewing and 2 journal entry assignments below. Please submit all questions and answers for both Journal Entries in ONE document, with Week 3 and your name in the subject line of the email. Also remember to include your name on the document.

PART 1: CHOREOGRAPHY and The CHOREOGRAPHER

There are many different ways of going about generating choreography. Choreographers are artists and no artist is alike. Choreographers work in many different ways to come up with movement and how their movement works in a particular space with particular dancers and music (or not). It is highly subjective art form, no one way is the right way. Some choreographers were highly trained dancers, some have never danced at all. What are some ways in which choreographers work to come up with their movement?

-One can use music to dictate the movement.

-One can use improvisation to come up with vocabulary.

-Gestural, pedestrian movements can be stylized into steps and combinations.

-Classical movement, like ballet, can help develop choreography.

-A site specific location can inform choreographic vocabulary.

Important Choreographic Elements– each of these has an influence on how the dance piece is created and how it evolves into a finished work:

-Space (where are you? on a stage? in a location? how big is the space?)

-Time (how long is the piece, is it the length of the music, is there silence, text, etc., how does time play a role in the dance piece?)

-Music (is there music, if so- what mood does it dictate, does the choreography want to work in tandem with the music or in opposition to it, etc.?)

-Collaboration (who is making the dance in the room- dancers, what creative collaborators contribute to the overall mood and finished work- designers: lighting designer, costume designer, sound designer, director of the play if the work is in a musical, etc.)

-Energy (what is the dynamic of this piece- athletic, lyrical, is it high energy, or is it slow and methodical, etc.)

-Levels (are the dancers operating on the same plane, are there levels, do they create high and low levels with their bodies)

-Speed (what is the tempo of the music, what is the tempo of the movement)

Reading Assignment: 

Read Chapter 2 in your Text Book.

Part 1 Journal Entry Questions:
