The research paper draft Lum is mine and what the paper will be about. If I need to pay more than the written 8 pages, please let me know. I am also in need of help including footnotes and end notes because my teacher did not teach that before classes went online. Thank you.
Research Paper Guidelines Research Paper Guidelines Kennesaw State University Department of Visual Arts Spring 2020 Dr. Daniel E. Sachs 1. Use proper note format for art history. DO NOT USE MLA format. The proper format is as follows (Refer to the University of Chicago Writing Manual or to Kate Turabian’s A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses and Dissertations): “Art history is a complex and convoluted subject when you take all of its cultural interconnections into account.” 2. RULE NUMBER 1 OF GOOD WRITING: Always assume that your reader is ignorant but intelligent. In other words, you should give the reader, i.e. in this case the professor, the benefit of the doubt that he is smart enough to understand anything you may be talking about, yet is perhaps unfamiliar with the subject. DO NOT ASSUME that he is familiar with every image to which you refer in the text of your paper. 3. Write paper in a double-spaced format 4. DO NOT DOUBLE SPACE BETWEEN PARAGRAPHS! The paper is already written in double-space format, so you needn’t add an extra return between paragraphs. 5. Note sequence begins with 1 and continues until you reach infinity! You CAN NOT REPEAT note numbers such as 1, 2, 3, 1, 4, 2, 4, 3, etc. If your note refers to the same source, you still keep the note in sequence, but cite the author’s last name and the page number only. I prefer you to use Endnotes as opposed to Footnotes. a. Endnotes show the author’s first name first and last name last. If they run more than one line, they should be single-spaced within entries and double-spaced between entries. b. Ibid. The term Ibid. is used when you are citing a source and it is the same source as the previous note. This can be done ad infinitum if necessary. The only thing that might change is the page number. c. Note indications go after the sentence or quote. They are the last thing in the sentence. Try not to have more than one note per sentence. If necessary, break a long sentence into shorter ones. d. Notes. Use Arabic numerals, i.e. 1, 2, 3, etc., not roman numerals, i.e. i, ii, iii, etc., for notes, and I prefer endnotes to footnotes. 6. Bibliographical information is listed in alphabetical order with the author’s last name first. They are single-spaced within entries and double-spaced between entries. 7. ALL TITLES MUST BE ITALICIZED! It is regardless of whether they are works of art or publications. Journal articles are placed in quotation marks and appear before the title of the journal in which they appear. 8. BE SURE TO INCLUDE PAGE NUMBERS IN YOUR PAPER. 9. Spell out centuries, i.e. “twentieth century”; “nineteenth century,” and so on. If you are referring to something that went on in a particular century you use the following format: “nineteenth-century art”. The hyphenated century is proper format. 10. Spell out numbers that are ten or below. In other words, ten, nine, eight, etc., and 11, 12, 13, etc. 11. Dates, i.e. decades or centuries are not possessive. Therefore, don’t write “1700’s” or “1640’s” but 1700s or 1640s instead. The apostrophe is grammatically incorrect in this situation. 12. Whenever you discuss an image in a research paper, whether or not it is by the artist who is the primary focus of your discussion, you must include that image in your paper. 13. WATCH POSSESSIVES and PLURALS. Van Gogh’s painting, not Van Gogh painting; and “ten artists” (when you are referring to more than one), not “ten artist!” 14. Pay close attention to your grammatical structure. Do Not Write Sentences that Do Not Make Grammatical Sense in English!! 15. Be sure that you are writing about a subject that is covered by this course. For instance, DO NOT WRITE A PAPER ABOUT FRENCH ART IF THE COURSE IS A COURSE ON AMERICAN LANDSCAPE PAINTING!!! 16. Write clearly and simply. Big or fancy words are fine if they are more efficient than other words, but don’t just use fancy words to sound intelligent or to impress. Usually, it just sounds bad and confusing to the reader. Avoid run-on sentences! If a sentence is repetitive, long and non-sensibly rambling ad nauseum, odds are it is a run-on sentence. 17. PROOFREAD! PROOFREAD! PROOFREAD! Even the best writer in the world must proofread his/her work and still give it to an editor to read over. If you have the opportunity to let a friend or relative read your paper, that is a good thing. They will be much more objective about it than you, the author, will or is able to be. 18. BLOCK QUOTES. Block quotes are used when you quote or refer to a source and it is four lines or more length. In such a situation, the quote would be indented two tabs and single-spaced. You would not open and close a block quote with quotation marks. At the end of the quote, you would of course indent a note. The following is an example. WHATEVER is fitted in any sort to excite the ideas of pain and danger, that is to say, whatever is in any sort terrible, or is conversant about terrible objects, or operates in a manner analogous to terror, is a source of the sublime; that is, it is productive of the strongest emotion which the mind is capable of feeling. I say the strongest emotion, because I am satisfied the ideas of pain are much more powerful than those which enter on the part of pleasure. After the block quote, you would return to double-spaced text. 19. DANGLING PARTICIPLES. Do not end a sentence with a dangling participle. In other words don’t end a sentence with something like, “the movement I belonged to.” Say, “the movement to which I belonged.” Another example is “there is a particular philosophy I adhere to.” It is better written as “a philosophy to which I adhere” or “a philosophy that I advocate.” One additional example: “He’s someone I believe in.” It’s more grammatically correct to write “He’s someone in whom I believe.” 20. IMAGE/ILLUSTRATION FORMAT. All captions go directly underneath the illustration (with some space, of course). Do not separate a caption from its image. In other words, don’t show me an illustration on one page and show its caption on the next page. The following information should be included in your caption: Figure [number]. Then, the artist’s name, title of the work (italicized) and the date the work was created. Of course, there must be commas between all information except for what I mentioned above. Here is an example of what the caption should look like. Illustrations should include good reproductions of all works discussed. You may imbed your illustrations in the text if you choose, but they must still include full captions and figure numbers. DO NOT MAKE ILLUSTRATIONS INTO NOTES. They are to be listed separately on a separate page in the proper order indicated below. Figure 1. Peter Paul Rubens, The Raising of the Cross, 1610-11 21. THE ORDER OF YOUR RESEARCH PAPER is as follows: 1. Cover page. Should include the title of the paper, your full name, the name and number of the course, the semester and year in which it is being submitted and the name of the professor. You may also include an image on the cover if you wish. If you do include an image on the cover, center it in the middle of the page and place the required information in the lower right-hand corner. If you do not include an image on your cover page, I would prefer all required information to be single-spaced and centered in the middle of the page. 2. Text of your paper should be double-spaced and in a readable font. I prefer 12 pt. Garamond, or something similar. 3. Endnotes. Should include the title “Endnotes.” 4. Bibliography. Should include the title “Bibliography,” NOT “works cited.” Remember, THIS IS NOT MLA format! 5. Illustrations should include good reproductions of all works discussed and a caption for each illustration that includes the artist’s name, the title of the work and the date in which it was created. You may imbed your illustrations in the text if you choose, but they must still include full captions and figure numbers. DO NOT MAKE ILLUSTRATIONS INTO NOTES. They are to be listed separately. All illustration titles are to be italicized. � Daniel E. Sachs, The Essence of Art Historical Thought, New York, Harry N. Abrams, Inc., 2003, 22. Lum 2 Jacques-Louis David’s Romanticized Neo-Classical Images Sydney Lum ARH3840 Structure for myself that I will delete later: What I will write about: Death of Marat I can retell the story and how it was incorporated in the art like the paper in Marat’s hand, reason for bathtub (skin damaged by sewers [and why he was in sewers]), how he died Oath of the horatii (?) Napoleon crossing the alps How napoleon was romanticized (his size compared to the horse, his face and the way he looks, how the background looks, etc.) Napoleon in his studies I can compare and contrast this and the napoleon crossing the alps piece to show how napoleon was romanticized. I can include the reason why he wanted to create a myth of himself as well. Beginning: Jacques-Louis David was a (include later that he was leader of French revolution and that he was friends with Robespierre) French painter who lived from 1748 until 1825. He painted works in the Neoclassical style, which meant that he painted didactically. Painting in a didactic manner means that the paintings conveyed a lesson to be taught. Through this, David incorporated revolutionary symbols into his works, like The Oath of the Horatii.Comment by Dr. Sachs: Neo-classicalComment by Dr. Sachs: Expand your definition of the Neo-classical style more. It was more than just didactic.Comment by Dr. Sachs: Are you referring to revolutionary symbols or symbols of the French Revolution? Clarify.Comment by Dr
