Assignment 2 Music Analysis 3 pages pleasePURPOSE The purp.docx
Assignment 2: Music Analysis 3 pages please
PURPOSE:
The purpose of this assignment is to use content analysis to critically analyze how one social issue/problem is discussed and represented in popular culture through music lyrics.
BACKGROUND:
There are many agents of popular culture though which the messages, themes and symbols of popular culture are produced and consumed. Media is a key agent of popular culture, and within it music is one mode for the production and consumption of popular culture. The music of the 1960s marked a key period of transition in the United States as themes of social problems and dissidence started to fill the radio waves. This assignment will allow you to explore one social issue or problem in music today.
See below (NOTE THAT THERE ARE TWO OPTIONS: OPTION 1 AND OPTION 2) for a detailed assignment description.
Option 1 Instructions:
1) Choose one social issue or social problem (i.e. drugs, the environment, war, teenage pregnancy, hate crimes, etc.).
2) Find at least 5 songs with lyrics that address your chosen social issue/problem. You will need to cite these songs using proper APA formatting (see below).
3) Analyze the songs for similarities and differences in how they address the social issue/problem. You may:
- look for themes within and among the songs (i.e. songs about war that talk about ‘ending war’
- consider the year the songs were copyrighted
- consider the genre the song fits in
- is the song directed at a particular audience? (think socio-demographic characteristics: age, race/ethnicity, gender, socio-economic status (SES), and sexuality)
- what type of vocabulary, words, grammar, euphemisms, vernacular is used for the lyrics?
- Consider the actual production of the song as well: tempo, emotion, male/female singer, individual singer/band, etc.
4) Find at least two sources that address music and your social problem (i.e. the sources are providing similar analysis or commentary on how your social problem is addressed through music). These may be popular sources (i.e. magazine articles or websites), but Wikipedia is not acceptable.
5) Find at least one peer-reviewed article (see attached Finding Peer Reviewed Journals guidelines) that discusses your social issue problem and how it is portrayed by the media (ideally this would be focused on your social issue and problem, but this may be difficult to find – so an article on TV, radio, internet, movies is OK).
6) Write-up your paper
a) Cover Page
b) Clearly identify your chosen social issue/problem.
a. Why are you interested in studying this?
c) Write-up your analysis of how this social issue/problem is addressed in the 5 songs you chose
a.
NOTE:
this is the majority of your paper. It is a ‘comparative critical’ analysis of how your chosen social issue/problem is addressed in these songs. It is NOT a summary of each song, and it should not include cutting and pastin.
questions 1 This week, we look at several examples of early.docx
questions 1: This week, we look at several examples of early modernist* art such as post-impressionism*, cubism*, fauvism*, futurism*, and expressionism*. Let's discuss the relationships between these aesthetic categories and the sociopolitical* climate of the period, always (as we did for Rubens) describing and analyzing specific examples of these categories, as well as (as we did last week for romanticism to impressionism) questioning whether such categories express the wishes of the artists involved and/or if such terms have stuck with critics and scholars.
How did the sociopolitical climate of the time period, including especially the First World War, influence artists? As always, your posts need to meet multiple rubrics to get quality-points (one rubric means one point, up to four). Comparison with present-day examples are always welcome as added ornament, but the meat and potatoes of your point-getting posts will need to focus on the years between 1904 and 1939 (just before WWII).
Which artistic and philosophical sub-cultures (circles of friends, enemies, and patrons) were among the most influential in this period, and which works caused the most adoration and debate, then and now?
question 2:As it's Black History Month (when is white history month? Every other one?) and you may have seen that African-American singing was my Ph.D. topic and scholarly primary-area within music history, I'd like to invite everyone to consider the particular presence of continued "race" inequities in early-20th-century arts and politics over the globe (as we discussed slaves in Greece and the portrayal of lower classes in the realist strain within romanticism). In the U.S. what used to be referred to as "the black problem" has been particularly thorny.
Through most of the 19th century, by far the most-popular multimedia performance-form (music, dance, jokes, costumes) in the U.S. (with some popularity in England and elsewhere) was blackface minstrelsy, where both white and some black performers (mostly male) "blacked up" using burnt-cork and oil over their faces, while exaggerating and reddening their lips, wearing white gloves, etc., a disgusting but fascinating deep strain at the root of American popular culture.
But this thread is about roughly 1890-1939; what are some ways that African-Americans began to develop their own subcultures both in the South (where the vast majority of African-Americans lived in earlier, slave years) but also growing in the North (particularly business and industrial centers). What are some artistic, political, and philosophical sub-cultures (circles of friends, enemies, and patrons) under cultivation in these years, and what are some leading products of these circles? (For instance, were the patrons of most black art also black, and how did differences of class and ethnicity tend to affect the terms of this patronage?)
As always, be specific and avoid clichés, triteness, and hyperbole/exaggeration. Consider also the emergen ...

1. The “blues” have greatly influenced American music in virtually every genre. Describe that influence, citing major works, performers, or composers, and how that influence continues to the present day.
2. We have listened to several works in class that have significantly addressed the social-cultural-political events and trends of the time. Why are the arts, and music in particular, so important in discussing these often controversial issues? What is the role of music in American society as a voice for social change?
3. Funding for the arts, and especially for music, in American public school systems has been on a decline for many years. This is a trend not seen in most countries in the developed world. In your opinion, how has that decline of funding affected the average American student’s education?
4. In this class, we have listened to music written and/or performed by several often-underrepresented communities (African-Americans, Jewish, women, LGBTQ+, Hispanic Americans, etc.). Choose one such community and trace their influence through the history of American music up to and including the present day. Cite important figures and works

· Popular culture came to America in a big way together with television, low-cost housing, and numerous appliances in the 1950s. It was the era of federal loans, nuclear bomb paranoia, and last but not least, rock and roll.

PURPOSE The purpose of this assignment is to use content analys
PURPOSE:
The purpose of this assignment is to use content analysis to critically analyze how one social issue/problem is discussed and represented in popular culture through music lyrics.
BACKGROUND:
There are many agents of popular culture though which the messages, themes and symbols of popular culture are produced and consumed. Media is a key agent of popular culture, and within it music is one mode for the production and consumption of popular culture. The music of the 1960s marked a key period of transition in the United States as themes of social problems and dissidence started to fill the radio waves. This assignment will allow you to explore one social issue or problem in music today.
Option 1 Instructions:
1) Choose one social issue or social problem (i.e. drugs, the environment, war, teenage pregnancy, hate crimes, etc.).
2) Find at least 5 songs with lyrics that address your chosen social issue/problem. You will need to cite these songs using proper APA formatting (see below).
3) Analyze the songs for similarities and differences in how they address the social issue/problem. You may:
- look for themes within and among the songs (i.e. songs about war that talk about ‘ending war’
- consider the year the songs were copyrighted
- consider the genre the song fits in
- is the song directed at a particular audience? (think socio-demographic characteristics: age, race/ethnicity, gender, socio-economic status (SES), and sexuality)
- what type of vocabulary, words, grammar, euphemisms, vernacular is used for the lyrics?
- Consider the actual production of the song as well: tempo, emotion, male/female singer, individual singer/band, etc.
4) Find at least two sources that address music and your social problem (i.e. the sources are providing similar analysis or commentary on how your social problem is addressed through music). These may be popular sources (i.e. magazine articles or websites), but Wikipedia is not acceptable.
5) Find at least one peer-reviewed article (see attached Finding Peer Reviewed Journals guidelines) that discusses your social issue problem and how it is portrayed by the media (ideally this would be focused on your social issue and problem, but this may be difficult to find – so an article on TV, radio, internet, movies is OK).
6) Write-up your paper
a) Cover Page
b) Clearly identify your chosen social issue/problem.
a. Why are you interested in studying this?
c) Write-up your analysis of how this social issue/problem is addressed in the 5 songs you chose
a.
NOTE:
this is the majority of your paper. It is a ‘comparative critical’ analysis of how your chosen social issue/problem is addressed in these songs. It is NOT a summary of each song, and it should not include cutting and pasting the lyrics of all of the songs into the paper.

For the research paper, you will choose one comic and argue that h.docx
For the research paper, you will choose one comic and argue that he/she is the most important standup comic in American history. The comic in question need not be the funniest, necessarily, but one who has successfully influenced American culture and the way in which audiences approach, digest, and evaluate humor.
All quotes must be cited parenthetically according to MLA-style documentation.
The introduction will begin by including a brief biography of the comic in question. All information must be cited according to MLA documentation, and may not come from encyclopedias. To include:
How did the comedian begin his/her stand-up career (where, when, with whom)?
What is the comedian's primary subject matter and how would you characterize his/her style?
Who are his/her influences and whom does he/she influence?
Why is this person among the most influential or notable comedians?
It must also locate the chosen comedian within the context of the American standup tradition. Students should use course readings to help them accomplish this. Most importantly, the introduction must include a strong thesis that persuasively and clearly argues why this comedian is the most important standup comic in American history. The introduction is not necessarily a single paragraph.
2. Standup Analysis
In this section, you must choose 2-3 specific bits to analyze for artistic, political, or social significance. What makes these jokes funny? Innovative? To what extent does the comedian rely on persona? What influence do jokes like these have on the comic tradition and perhaps on American culture? How do these bits connect with other comedians we have studied this semester?
3. Connections to Course Readings, Concepts, and Standups
Here you will make sophisticated connections to course readings, concepts, and standups
Readings: to what traditions does the comic belong? How do you see the historical roots outlined in the readings revealed in this comic's performance? How do these connections prove that the comic in question is the most important comic is American history? To be successful here, you must identify a variety (at least three) of readings from class and analyze the ways in which they connect to your comic.
Concepts: This may overlap with readings, but it may not. Here you may include discussions from class or Prezis ("This is Not a Pipe," etc.) to address the questions above, specifically to prove that the comic in question is the most important comic in American history.
Standups: What other influential comic/s does this comic mirror? How do these connections prove that the comic in question is the most important comic is American history?
4. Critical Reception
Here is where much of your research is located. Here you must include at least three outside sources that come from a) long-form magazines, b) academic essays, or c) shorter form cultural criticisms that come from a legitimate news source.
Your purpose will be.
1.) Choose one piece of art from chapter 13 and discuss at lea.docx
1.)
Choose one piece of art from chapter 13 and discuss at least three characteristics that place it in the period (high renaissance, reformation, counter reformation, mannerism) and place in which it was created. Give at least two examples of how was it different from the previous period?
2.)
During a period when political and religious factions attacked each other with lethal fanaticism, works of art often played an important role in capturing the imagination and swaying the emotions of viewers. Choose one piece of art from chapter 14 that you think does this. Be sure to use at least three specific characteristics to support your argument.
3.)
Choose a native North American work that was made to be used in social life or ritual. Explain the difference between its form and meaning while in use and while observed in the context of a museum installation.
4.)
Choose a work in chapter 16/power point that was made for a political leader and discuss how its form and meaning relate to the political aspirations of its patron.
5.)
Compare one Neoclassic piece of art/architecture and one Romantic piece of art/architecture. Discuss the two pieces as cultural expressions of mid-eighteenth to mid-nineteenth century Europe. Focus on at least two characteristics of each piece.

PURPOSE The purpose of this assignment is to use content analys
PURPOSE:
The purpose of this assignment is to use content analysis to critically analyze how one social issue/problem is discussed and represented in popular culture through music lyrics.
BACKGROUND:
There are many agents of popular culture though which the messages, themes and symbols of popular culture are produced and consumed. Media is a key agent of popular culture, and within it music is one mode for the production and consumption of popular culture. The music of the 1960s marked a key period of transition in the United States as themes of social problems and dissidence started to fill the radio waves. This assignment will allow you to explore one social issue or problem in music today.
Option 1 Instructions:
1) Choose one social issue or social problem (i.e. drugs, the environment, war, teenage pregnancy, hate crimes, etc.).
2) Find at least 5 songs with lyrics that address your chosen social issue/problem. You will need to cite these songs using proper APA formatting (see below).
3) Analyze the songs for similarities and differences in how they address the social issue/problem. You may:
- look for themes within and among the songs (i.e. songs about war that talk about ‘ending war’
- consider the year the songs were copyrighted
- consider the genre the song fits in
- is the song directed at a particular audience? (think socio-demographic characteristics: age, race/ethnicity, gender, socio-economic status (SES), and sexuality)
- what type of vocabulary, words, grammar, euphemisms, vernacular is used for the lyrics?
- Consider the actual production of the song as well: tempo, emotion, male/female singer, individual singer/band, etc.
4) Find at least two sources that address music and your social problem (i.e. the sources are providing similar analysis or commentary on how your social problem is addressed through music). These may be popular sources (i.e. magazine articles or websites), but Wikipedia is not acceptable.
5) Find at least one peer-reviewed article (see attached Finding Peer Reviewed Journals guidelines) that discusses your social issue problem and how it is portrayed by the media (ideally this would be focused on your social issue and problem, but this may be difficult to find – so an article on TV, radio, internet, movies is OK).
6) Write-up your paper
a) Cover Page
b) Clearly identify your chosen social issue/problem.
a. Why are you interested in studying this?
c) Write-up your analysis of how this social issue/problem is addressed in the 5 songs you chose
a.
NOTE:
this is the majority of your paper. It is a ‘comparative critical’ analysis of how your chosen social issue/problem is addressed in these songs. It is NOT a summary of each song, and it should not include cutting and pasting the lyrics of all of the songs into the paper.
b. Use the prompts in step 3 to help you organize this analysis

For the research paper, you will choose one comic and argue that h.docx
For the research paper, you will choose one comic and argue that he/she is the most important standup comic in American history. The comic in question need not be the funniest, necessarily, but one who has successfully influenced American culture and the way in which audiences approach, digest, and evaluate humor.
All quotes must be cited parenthetically according to MLA-style documentation.
The introduction will begin by including a brief biography of the comic in question. All information must be cited according to MLA documentation, and may not come from encyclopedias. To include:
How did the comedian begin his/her stand-up career (where, when, with whom)?
What is the comedian's primary subject matter and how would you characterize his/her style?
Who are his/her influences and whom does he/she influence?
Why is this person among the most influential or notable comedians?
It must also locate the chosen comedian within the context of the American standup tradition. Students should use course readings to help them accomplish this. Most importantly, the introduction must include a strong thesis that persuasively and clearly argues why this comedian is the most important standup comic in American history. The introduction is not necessarily a single paragraph.
2. Standup Analysis
In this section, you must choose 2-3 specific bits to analyze for artistic, political, or social significance. What makes these jokes funny? Innovative? To what extent does the comedian rely on persona? What influence do jokes like these have on the comic tradition and perhaps on American culture? How do these bits connect with other comedians we have studied this semester?
3. Connections to Course Readings, Concepts, and Standups
Here you will make sophisticated connections to course readings, concepts, and standups
Readings: to what traditions does the comic belong? How do you see the historical roots outlined in the readings revealed in this comic's performance? How do these connections prove that the comic in question is the most important comic is American history? To be successful here, you must identify a variety (at least three) of readings from class and analyze the ways in which they connect to your comic.
Concepts: This may overlap with readings, but it may not. Here you may include discussions from class or Prezis ("This is Not a Pipe," etc.) to address the questions above, specifically to prove that the comic in question is the most important comic in American history.
Standups: What other influential comic/s does this comic mirror? How do these connections prove that the comic in question is the most important comic is American history?
4. Critical Reception
Here is where much of your research is located. Here you must include at least three outside sources that come from a) long-form magazines, b) academic essays, or c) shorter form cultural criticisms that come from a legitimate news source.
Your purpose will be.
1.) Choose one piece of art from chapter 13 and discuss at lea.docx

How to Break the cycle of negative Thoughts
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
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. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Introduction to Quality Improvement Essentials
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
