Topic: Critique essay
Description:
Using your critical method handouts, you will critique an artifact of some sort: visual, musical, theatrical, cinematic, etc. The handouts give specific suggestions, and allow you to select an item of your choosing across a broad list of genres.
You will also review the artifact in relation to how it upholds or derides the Enlightenment principles you have been studying. Simply put, you should notice whether an artifact sustains Humanistic ideals, a trait of the Enlightenment, or is used propagandistically to support some other institution above basic, individual, human rights.
