Assignment:
Prompt for Module Discussion:
Argue for or against the statement: Noh and Kyogen theater during the Muromachi period celebrated tradition and the status quo.
General reminders:
There will be a prompt for each module's discussion thread.
If there is an "argue for or against" kind of prompt, there should be evidence for either side of the debate in the course materials.
The format you use in your response will be relatively open: you can write a paragraph or two; you can write an outline or bullet point list; you can make and post a response video; you can use graphic images...if you have other ideas about format, just let me know.
However, you must address the prompt and demonstrate engagement with course materials (by quoting, for example), and your third essay assignment will be to develop one of your discussion posts into a full essay.
Cite your sources using Chicago style notes & bib.
