Homework
The Greeks were great storytellers and loved to recount tales of their heroes from Greek mythology. A great source of Greek narrative history came from their pottery. Starting with the Geometric period, the surfaces of Greek pottery provided the means for Greeks to celebrate themselves. The purpose of this homework is to examine Greek pottery as it changed over the years.
For this homework, create a power point presentation, using at least ten slides to trace the evolution of Greek pottery from the Geometric, Orientalizing, Archaic, Classical (Early to the High Classical period).
In your presentation, consider the following:
i. Use visual examples to illustrate the periods, indicating the date the pottery was made, the type of pottery, (amphora, krater, kylix, etc.) the period it represents, and the creator(s) if known. Remember that many times the person, who made the pot, did not paint the pot!
ii. Note the stylistic and narrative qualities of each example; what is the story being told and how did the painter use the elements of art to recount the tale?
iii. Analyze how each period differed (if it did) from the previous period.
Format your homework according to the following formatting requirements:
i) The answer should be typed, using Times New Roman font (size 12), double spaced, with one-inch margins on all sides.
ii) The response also includes a cover page containing the title of the homework, the student's name, the course title, and the date. The cover page is not included in the required page length.
iii) Also include a reference page. The Citations and references must follow APA format. The reference page is not included in the required page length.
