Responding to a classmate’s thread requires both the addition of new ideas and analysis. A particular point made by the classmate must be addressed and built upon by your analysis in order to move the conversation forward. Thus, the reply is a rigorous assignment that requires you to build upon the thread to develop deeper and more thorough discussion of the ideas introduced. As such, replies that merely affirm, restate or unprofessionally quarrel with the previous thread(s) and fail to make a valuable, substantive contribution to the discussion will receive appropriate point deductions.
.
In addition to the thread, you are required to reply to 2 other classmates’ threads. Each reply must be at least 100 words. Acceptable sources include the textbook, peer-reviewed journal articles, government sources, professional association websites, etc.

ASSIGNMENT 1
Prompt
Students will write two short, thoughtful, clear, and original essays on the readings, films, and ideas discussed in Weeks 1, 2, and 3. The assignment is worth 20% of your overall grade in the course.
Answer Question 1 and either Question 2 or 3.
1. According to Anthony Giddens’ descriptions and analysis of modernity, is the UAE a modern society?
2. To what extent do the personalities, struggles, and behavior of the characters in The Devil Wears Prada match those of modern urbanites described by Georg Simmel in “The Metropolis and Mental Life”?

3. To what extent do Daniel and Katie’s interactions with the state and state officials in I, Daniel Blake match the descriptions of modern bureaucracy by Max Weber and Hannah Arendt? What do we learn about bureaucracy in I, Daniel Blake that Weber and Arendt omit or mistake?
Explain your answers using specific examples. Guidelines
Response papers are very short. You do not have space to include vague or general points, or unnecessary background information.
Your introduction should be one short paragraph: a brief summary or definition of the film, work, or idea you are exploring in the essay, and a clear answer to the question. Mention the examples you will be using in the paper to make your argument.
For the body of the paper, discuss two or three precise and original examples only to explain your answer – from the reading, film, or real life. Relate these examples to specific ideas from the texts.
Do not summarize whole readings or films. It is best to discuss a small number of specific ideas, quotations, concepts, or scenes from the readings or films in detail. Don’t try to cover every part of a complex text or film in a single short essay.
Cite quotations and sources correctly within your paper and in a bibliography using a standard referencing method (such as APA or MLA).
Length: Approx. 3 pages per essay, double-spaced, excluding bibliography.
Formatting
Written work will be graded on four criteria: understanding of readings and materials; analysis and argument; information literacy (citations, bibliography, and use of sources); organization and accuracy of English. Consult the assignment’s grading rubric for more information.
All written work should:
• Follow instructions and requirements closely
• Respond to the assigned questions through specific and meaningful analysis of the assigned
materials
• Reason thoughtfully and coherently with evidence
• Contain a logical and engaging beginning, middle, and ending
• Provide intelligent readers with explanation and background information where necessary
• Address readers respectfully in a graceful, conversational style
• Express thoughts in clear, economical prose using the conventions of English grammar, spelling,
and punctuation
Essays should be typed and double-spaced. Print on both sides of paper. Use a plain 12-point font with a 1-inch margin. Number all pages. Do not include cover or contents pages. All papers should have appropriate titles.
Two recommended websites to consult for information on referencing and formatting styles:
• Harvard Guide to Using Sources, Harvard College Writing Program, Harvard University: http://usingsources.fas.harvard.edu/icb/icb.do
• The Purdue Online Writing Lab, Purdue University: http://owl.english.purdue.edu/
You do not need to include any additional sources in this assignment in addition to those mentioned
in the question.
However, if you choose to include additional sources, all sources must be reliable. This usually means you should only use peer-reviewed scholarly books and journal articles distributed by reputable academic publishers. Websites and other publications (e.g. government reports, self-published books, online articles) may be helpful to learn about a topic, but these are very rarely considered reliable sources – so it is best to avoid using them in assignments. To evaluate a source’s reliability, you should inquire as to the credentials of the author, the purpose, scope, and currency of the source, and the reputation of the publisher. It is important not to select sources at random (e.g. because they are the first sources you find).

GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR PAPERS:
Papers MUST have an argument and a thesis – these are college papers, not book reports
Often the most effective format includes an introduction (culminating in a thesis), 3-4 examples to prove/illustrate your argument, and a conclusion which sums up your perspective and tells us why this matters. This is not a requirement, but it may serve as a useful guide.
Not only your ideas, but also your style, punctuation, and general effectiveness will be graded.
Papers should be no shorter than 5 pages (not counting the title page, if used)
Papers should be double-spaced, in Times New Roman 12 pt font
This paper does not require secondary research, BUT, if you use sources/ideas that are not your own, you MUST cite them, either in footnotes, parenthetically, or in a bibliography
I am more interested in YOUR ideas and thoughts than in a professional-level bibliography
That having been said, plagiarism will NOT BE TOLERATED. If you are AT ALL in doubt about this – PLEASE contact me.
The first draft of this paper is due February 1
A. Read the selections from Livy’s description of Romulus’ life and reign: pg. 34-49 (1.4-1.16)
1. The life of Romulus (especially his early life with Remus) may seem very familiar to you from other ancient/modern sources. What are some of the common facets that Romulus’ life shares with that of another famous/mythological figure? What do you think these similarities tell us about human interactions with the divine and/or perceptions of greatness?
2. How does Livy report the questionable death of Romulus? What do you think this says adds to the mythology of Rome’s founder? If Livy was writing after the death (and later deification) of Julius Caesar, how should we (re-)interpret the death of Romulus?
3. The Romulus narrative is full of violence, especially within the family unit. What do these stories about Rome’s founding (and its founder) tell us about ancient attitudes toward violence (especially as Rome had just survived decades of civil war, and was currently involved in one when Livy was writing)?
B. Read the selections from Livy concerning the “Secession of the Plebs”: pg. 133-35, 141-43, 145-147 (2.23, 2.29, 2.31-33)
4. Briefly describe the social issue(s) that began the so-called “Secession of the Plebs.” How did the political action of the plebeians force government reform? How was the metaphor of the “body politic” used in this situation, and what did that formulation of the metaphor imply?
5. What does this first interaction between “rulers” and “ruled” during the Roman Republic tell us about the kind of governance at Rome? What attitudes towards the plebeians come across from the senators? What about the opinions of the plebs towards the ruling elites?
C. Read the selection from Livy concerning the Gallic sack of Rome in 390 BCE, and Camillus’ speech to the people: pg. 416-35 (5.39-55)
6. How does Livy portray the foreign invading Gauls as “barbarians”? What does Livy’s depiction of the Gallic sack tell us about Roman ideas of non-Roman “Others”?
7. After Camillus drove off the Gauls, there was a debate about whether the Romans should leave Rome and go to Veii instead. What does Camillus advise, and what does this tell us about Roman ideas of place generally, and Rome specifically?
