Essay Topic:
Discuss the impact of the political and cultural developments in Western societies of the ancient and medieval eras with “Structure” as the central theme. Make sure to incorporate the “Perpetua’s Journey” text into the essay. Some questions you could consider when thinking about this topic.. what elements of society created structure? Governments? Religions? What did those entities look like? Who did these societal / political / religious structures benefit? Were there elements that destroyed societal / political / religious structures?
Directions:
This is obviously a very broad essay topic. The purpose of this essay is for you to think about the material that you have studied throughout this course. Provide your own analysis of the impact and legacy of the various historical eras and events that you have studied. You are not expected to discuss every era that we covered in this course. Pick two to three that you feel are the most important and that you can relate to the concept of Structure. I will be looking for your ability to tie various historical movements together and show how they are connected.
Suggestions for proceeding with this assignment:
1) Look through your previous work for this class to refresh your memory on what you have learned.
2) Look through the textbook and make note of historical events that you think you would like to include in your essay, and that you can relate to the theme of Structure.
4) Pick 2-3 eras to include in your essay. Read up on those from the textbook.
5) Draft your essay. Put an extra emphasis on showing connections between the topics and relating them to Structure, and comparing the eras to each other.
6) If you have questions for me, contact me by private message sooner than later. Don’t wait until the last minute.
