HUMANITIES Task 1SUBDOMAIN 112.1 - FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS, METHODS, & MODES IN THE HUMANITIESCompetency 112.1.2: Imagination, Values, and Emotions -The graduate examines concepts and modes of expression in human imagination, values, and emotions.Introduction:Works of art vary greatly across genres and time periods. While it may seem that these works originate solely from the minds of specific individuals, artists are influenced by the styles and characteristics of earlier periods as well as social and political events of the time. Works of art are often a continuation of or reaction to earlier artistic styles. For example, classical art from ancient Greece and Rome was revived during the neoclassical era. Cubism was a reaction to the style and characteristics of the earlier European tradition of realistic painting. The purpose of this task is to analyze, critique, and understand where creativity and inspiration originate.Choosetwoperiods from the list below and discuss the relationship betweenthe periods. You should discuss how one period revived or continued the style and characteristics of the other period or how one period deviated fromthe other period.You may focus on any two periods from the list below and any of the following disciplines within the humanities: music, visual art, architecture, and literature. Please note that not all disciplines are represented in each period. Additionally, please focus on the same discipline for each of your two periods. For example, compare romantic music with impressionist music or architecture from the middle ages with architecture from the renaissance.The following is a list of historical art periods you can choose from:• Classical• Middle ages• Renaissance• Mannerism• Baroque• Rococo• Neoclassical• Romanticism• Realism• Impressionism• Post impressionism• Cubism• Dadaism• Geometric abstraction• Harlem Renaissance• Surrealism• Pop art (visual art only)Task:

Your description should include the characteristics of the style, and historical conditions that may have contributed to the advent of this style.2. Describe the later period. Your description should include the characteristics of the style, and historical conditions that may have contributed to the advent of this style.3. Describe the relationship between the periods.a.

Both works should be from the same discipline (music, visual art, architecture, or literature).5.

Acknowledgement of source information includes in-text citation noting specifically where in the submission the source is used and a corresponding reference, which includes:•Author•Date•Title•Location of information (e.g., publisher, journal, or website URL)Note: The use of APA citation style is encouraged but is not required for this task.
