In this paper you will analyze and evaluate your own and others' assumptions about the extent to which music reflects a society's view and response to war and its aftermath. In this regard, you may wish to draw upon your module discussion forums, papers, and reflections in developing and supporting your position. [CO1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9] ------------------------------ FINAL PAPER TOPIC Music can be viewed as a mirror of a society’s feelings toward war. In this class we have examined how societies dealt with war through music: from music written during wars to music written in remembrance of past wars. In a 2750 word paper (approximately 10 pages, typed double-spaced), comprehensively examine the music used and the wars discussed in this class. How was music used for different functions during each of the wars discussed? What genres and styles were used? And how did society react to these musical works? In addition, compare and contrast one piece written during a war and one piece written as a memorial to a past war (any of the pieces from Module 8: Songs of Remembrance would work for the piece written after a war). How do these pieces function differently? Elements to discuss include the intended audience, the genre, the location of the performance, how society’s views of the war changed between the composition of the two pieces, and what your own reaction to these two pieces is. If you have questions about the requirements of the paper, be sure to discuss them with your mentor well in advance of the final submission. Consult the Course Calendar for this paper's due date. It must be submitted by the last day of the semester. ------------------------------ WRITING RESOURCES The following links provide online writing aids to help you with your paper. - OWL <http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/> (Online Writing Lab) at Purdue University - Writer's Handbook <http://writing.wisc.edu/Handbook/index.html>, the Writing Center at the University of Wisconsin–Madison <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail&utm_term=icon> Virus-free. www.avast.com <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail&utm_term=link> <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2>
