Topic: Body manifest

Paper details:

A 5 – 10 minute performance staging the politics of your/a/the “body,” which you will post publicly to our Canvas site. Please check out your classmates’ work! This assignment will be graded PASS/FAIL (i.e. you will receive full marks for completing it). I will briefly respond to your performances publicly via Canvas. One good way to begin is to locate a burning question that you have about the/a/your body – or embodiment more generally. Once you have that question firmly in your mind, begin to reflect on how you might answer, respond to, reflect on, express, or explore that question through a short performance. Will you use movement? Voice? Original text? Found text? Music? Dance? Stillness? In other words, how can you work creatively to work though this question you’ve developed? Feel free to come speak with me abohkzut this if you want to brainstorm!

Answer any five of these six questions in complete sentences (20 pts. each). You are free to complete all six if you wish. If you do, you will earn extra credit points. Answering six questions cannot harm your grade, it can only add points to your final score.

Answers must utilize examples, precise terminology, and specific names whenever appropriate/possible. Treat each question as a mini essay, meaning that the answer must be in a proper essay format (“thesis,” paragraphs, complete sentences, etc.). I will not accept outlines, bullet points, or lists. The full 20 points can only be earned if the answer exceeds the minimum requirements of the question. All quotation must have proper citation. Failure to properly cite quotations or external material will result in ZERO credit for that question and may result in failing the entire exam.

How do concepts such as Orientalism and the Protestant Work Ethic, tie in with these discussions?

6. Discuss the concept of celebrity worship and the cult of personality as it concerns popular culture and politics.
