The document provides guidance for analyzing the anthropological film "Jero: A Balinese Trance Seance" by discussing key concepts to explore such as cultural relativism and visual imperialism. Students are instructed to choose two or three concepts from readings and lectures to analyze how the film presents culture and ethnicity. They should consider the filmmakers' approach and construction of the presented culture, who Jero is and her significance, what was learned, and any ethical implications. Students are asked to evaluate if the filmmakers employed cultural relativism or privileged their own culture. They should also discuss how anthropology's shift may have impacted the filmmakers' approach and if it could have been more effective.

Essay (2-3 Pages, Double-Spaced) Due via Turnitin on the course .docxrusselldayna
Essay (2-3 Pages, Double-Spaced)
Due via Turnitin on the course blackboard, 11:00 PM, January 24.
Late papers are marked down 5% for each day it is late.
Previous paper asked for a close reading of one sequence through one particular text, the this paper asks you to apply all of the formal, historical, and theoretical knowledge you’ve acquired over the course to a comparative film analysis. For your essay do the following:
Select
at least two
(and no more than four) of the assigned texts for the course that you would like to incorporate in support of your argument. This means the essay PDFs, as these make particular theoretical claims. You are welcome to cite
The Film Experience
if this helps support your argument, but, as an introductory text book, this does not count as one of the two sources. While many of the essays address a particular film, genre, or movement, you should be able to apply some of the concepts to other examples—in fact, strong arguments often emerge when drawing connections between distinct texts and movies.
Select two films you would like to compare in terms of character portrayal. These can be any two films assigned for the class (with the exception of
Visions of Light
and
The Cutting Edge
), or one film assigned for the class along with any other film (not assigned) that best illustrates your argument. Any movie you find appropriate is fine, but you must address at least one film from the class. You don’t need to address both films equally, and rather than list all similarities and/or differences, focus on the one or two aspects (key character traits, his/her relationship to the narrative, ways in which the character is visually/acoustically presented) that are most unique to the film and relevant to your thesis.
Present your topic and method in your thesis paragraph. This should indicate the specific points of difference or similarity between the two films you would like to explore, along with how your supporting texts provide certain concepts, theoretical frameworks, or conceptual tools to help you with your comparison. For instance, you may want to compare two films of the same genre but of distinct time periods and address these in terms of genres of order and the ways in which masculinity and the law are connected in each case, or look a particular kind narrative structure seen in European art cinema and in a contemporary indie film, and what this might say about the situation of a female protagonist struggling for independence.
Your argument must demonstrate an informed understanding of the course material, and should thus showcase your ability to apply relevant vocabulary about the film’s style, narrative structure, historical context, etc. Avoid listing every possible difference or similarity. Rather, focus on a key aspect that reveals an interesting pattern or distinction. In other words, it is essential that the paper develop a precise argument that can be explored and supported in a fe.

In Chapter 2 of the book, the following was writtenThe Ethics of .docxrochellscroop
In Chapter 2 of the book, the following was written:
The Ethics of Representing Others: The concept of representation is what compels us to ask the question, "Why are ethical issues central to documentary filmmaking?" This question could also be phrased as, "What do we do with people when we make a documentary?" How do we treat people we film; what do we owe them as well as our audience? Should they receive compensation? Should they have a right to block the inclusion of events that prove incriminating? Is it all right to have repeat actions or conversations for the sake of the camera? Does this compromise the integrity of their actions and the film's claim to represent a reality that exists autonomously from its filming?"
(page 45)
Now, even though the above quote is referring to people and not animals, it still applies to
Grizzly Man
. Ethical questions abound in the film, and since its release people have had pretty profound problems with how the filmmaker represented grizzly bears as being (somewhat) harmless creatures that have a moral center that makes room for people (the Grizzly Man) who have (what he thought were) pure intentions as to how to treat these animals. He thought, literally, that the bears welcomed him as part of their pack; and he believed this in his soul (at least we are supposed to think he did). But there are questions about that, questions that should have been asked even before the film got funded.
So I want you to write a paper (at least three pages in length, double-spaced, Times New Roman 12 pt. font, 1" margins all around) that addresses all of the questions above. What are the moral implications of making a documentary that features animals that have no idea what morality is, and what are the implications of making a film that does not care that the animals have no idea what morality is? The film is obviously about the man, not the bears, even though the man would have us believe that all he cared about were the bears. Were his intentions selfish? Why or why not? This is supposed to be a film about animal activism, but did he go about his activism in a moral way? Did this film (as was its intent) make you care about the plight of bears more? Did the filmmaker abuse the bears sense of their own life? Did he exploit the very animals he was trying to protect?
These are the kinds of questions I want you to address. Be as creative and as thorough as you can be, and quote the book, quote the film, so that your thesis will be as strong as it needs to be.

1. How are issues of ethnicity and sexual Others represented in
two or three
films? Do the narratives use “silence” or “erasure” in dealing with (or not dealing with) them? How is the “silence” represented? What are the consequences?
Regarding sexual “Others,” how do the films accommodate or overturn the normative, heterosexual system that structures society? How do the narratives ultimately replicate or complicate/deconstruct sexual roles?
You are not required to answer all of these questions. I hope they stimulate your thinking and suggest avenues of approach.
I recommend focusing on two films so that you don’t spread yourself too thin. Of course, you can mention other films in passing, but you should focus on two or three films.

Analyze and interpret the following quotation The confrontation of.docxikirkton
Analyze and interpret the following quotation: “The confrontation of Western civilization with other peoples whose values were often dramatically opposed to the West’s…suggests that by the dawn of the twentieth century, the tradition and sense of centeredness that had defined indigenous cultures for hundreds, even thousands, of years was either threatened or in the process of being destroyed. Worldwide, non-Western cultures suddenly found that they were defined as outposts of new colonial empires developed by Europeans, resulting in the weakening of traditional cultural practices, political leadership, and social systems that had been in place for centuries.” (Sayre, 2013, pp. 410-411).
In the later nineteenth and early twentieth century, what would this “loss of centeredness” of culture have meant for a given cultural group? Select from among the non-Western cultural groups noted in the text (Native American, Chinese, Indian, Japanese, or African) and research the impact of Western or European cultures on that group.
What was the selected non-Western culture like prior to the late nineteenth century? How did it change as a result of European expansion? How is this change representative of what Sayre calls a “loss of centeredness?” Be sure to use specific examples and details.
Submit your findings in a 4-page essay in APA format.

Analyze and prepare a critique of the following situation:
Mary has worked for Bob for two years. About 6 months ago, Bob asked Mary out to dinner. They had a good time together and agreed that they had some real interests in common outside of work. The pair dated for two months. Mary initially liked Bob, but he was beginning to get annoying. He called her all the time, was very pushy about her seeing him, and wanted to control all aspects of her life; both at work and at home. Mary decided to call it off. When she told Bob that she did not want to see him personally anymore, he went crazy on her. He told her she would be sorry and that he would see to it that she regretted it. Bob began to make life miserable for Mary at work. She suddenly started to get poor performance evaluations after two years of exemplary reviews. Even the managers above Bob were beginning to make comments about her poor attitude. Mary decided it was time to act. She was worried she would be fired, all because Bob wanted her to continue to date him. She loved her job and knew she did quality work. She made an appointment with the HR manager.
Using the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 and 1991, discuss the type of sexual harassment Mary thinks she is experiencing. What are the obligations of the HR manager once Mary reports this? Discuss the likelihood that Bob would be found guilty of sexually harassing Mary. If the HR manager investigates and finds Mary is telling the truth, what should s/he do to handle the situation so that the company is not found complicit by the EEOC if further complaint is made?

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry.
