The Life and Works of Art by Kerry James Marshall discussion

Humanities

RESEARCH PROJECT HUM 2010: Contemporary Artists 2 CERTAIN VOCABULARY WORDS TO USE THROUGHOUT THE PAPER:

a) Color- pigments used. Value refers to the relative lightness or darkness of a hue. Saturation or hue intensity is the strength of a hue. Is it applied thinly or thickly?

b) Line- these are the overall vertical, horizontal, and/or curvilinear lines within the piece. Imagine if you made the work into a “color in the line” children’s page. What does it reveal about the design of the work?

c) Function- the purpose of the piece. Was it originally in a church or temple? Was the vase used to hold water? Or was it for personal adoration?

THE FORMAT OF THE PAPER:

a) Introduction- This is a place to briefly give an overview of the artist, the period and genre of art they occupy, and any historical context.

b) Thesis statement has to include “The author of this paper will.” It is best to include the main topic and then outline what the support will be by using the word(s) “due to/ because.” Three supports are suggested.

c) Description- Within the paper there should be a 1 ½ to 2 page thorough description of piece or pieces from the artist.

d) Body- Start developing the thesis statement by writing about each point within the thesis statement in a paragraph or two each. The body should expand on the artist, their inspiration, method, and more.

e) Closing- It should focus on tying up the thesis statement.

Descartes’ Mind-Body Argument discussion

Writing

Instructions:

  1. First Step: reconstruct the premises and conclusion of the Sixth Meditation argument that there is a real distinction between mind and body. The relevant stretch of text is here: THIS MEANS TO EXPLAIN WHAT HE IS ARGUING (first 2 pages)

First, I know that all the things that I clearly and distinctly understand can be made by God such as I understand them. For this reason, my ability clearly and distinctly to understand one thing without another suffices to make me certain that the one thing is different from the other, since they can be separated from each other, at least by God. The question as to the sort of power that might effect such a separation is not relevant to their being thought to be different. For this reason, from the fact that I know that I exist, and that at the same time I judge that obviously nothing else belongs to my nature or essence except that I am a thinking thing, I rightly conclude that my essence consists entirely in my being a thinking thing. And although perhaps (or rather, as I shall soon say, assuredly) I have a body that is very closely joined to me, nevertheless, because on the one hand I have a clear and distinct idea of myself, insofar as I am merely a thinking thing and not an extended thing, and because on the other hand I have a distinct idea of a body, insofar as it is merely an extended thing and not a thinking thing, it is certain that I am really distinct from my body and can exist without it. (Modern Philosophy, p. 64, left column).

  1. Second Step: evaluate this argument. (Another two pages)
    1. If you think this is a good argument, you can either 1) offer further support for the argument or 2) present and explain a possible objection to this argument and explain why the objection fails.
    2. If, however, you think this is a bad argument, present an objection to the argument and explain exactly why it succeeds in undermining Descartes’s argument. (For example, you could formulate an objection based on Elisabeth’s worry that Descartes cannot explain how an immaterial mind and a material body can causally interact. If you choose to discuss Elisabeth’s worry, you must refer to what Elisabeth says in her correspondence with Descartes.)

Your paper should be at least 4 (but no more than 5) double-spaced pages. Use 12pt Times (or similar) font and standard (~1 inch) margins.

Make sure to be specific in explaining how the argument works and in evaluating it. If you are giving an objection, say which premise or inference of the argument the objection targets. If you are supporting the argument, make sure it is clear how what you say supports Descartes’s argument. Focus on what is essential, and do not add extraneous details just to make your paper longer.

PREMISES TO BE INCLUDED IN THE RECONSTRUCTION:

1. if I can clearly and distinctly understand A is B, then it is possible that A is B

2. If I can clearly and distinctly understand X without Y, the God can separate them and so that X and Y are distinct things

3. I exist and my essence is that of a thinking thing and nothing else.

4. I have a body

5. I have a clear and distinct idea of myself as merely a thinking thing, not extended

6. I have a clear and distinct idea of body as merely an extension, not a thinking thing.
