Background to the assignment: As you read in chapter 11, you learned how the Roman value system was very pragmatic. Pragmatism used in the philosophical sense, is a belief system having various forms, but generally stressing practical consequences as constituting the essential criterion in determining meaning, truth, or value. It deals less with theory as well as idealism and more with practicality. This value of being pragmatic explains what the Roman people saw when they interacted with the world around them. They were interpreting their situation by applying their worldview and living their lives accordingly, just as we do today as we interpret the world around us.

 

Description of the assignment: List at least 3 of their achievements and explain how each of them expressed the pragmatism of the Romans. Your discourse must indicate that you have an understanding of this value. If you include sources, cite them in current APA format. This assignment must be 250–300 words and must include the word count in parentheses. Submit a draft of your Learning Activity to SafeAssign for feedback a few days before the assignment is due.

In Federalist No. 78, Alexander Hamilton argued that the judiciary was the least dangerous branch of government. Many people would argue that Hamilton was incorrect and that today’s courts wield an enormous amount of power. However, Hamilton believed the courts were the least dangerous branch because they had the power of neither the purse nor the sword. The courts’ power increased with John Marshall’s establishment of judicial review.

All presidents are concerned with the legacy they leave once out of office and major influence on this legacy is the Supreme Court justices they appoint. For this reason, politics plays an immense role the nomination process. Consider the nomination of Merrick Garland by Barack Obama in 2016 to fill the vacancy on the Supreme Court created by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia (an icon of conservative ideology). However, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell declared any appointment by the sitting president to be null and void. He said the next Supreme Court justice should be chosen by the next president — to be elected later that year. According to McConnell, “the American people should have a say in the court’s direction. It is a president’s constitutional right to nominate a Supreme Court justice, and it is the Senate’s constitutional right to act as a check on the president and withhold its consent.” Supreme Court picks have often been controversial but there was no precedence to ignore the nominee entirely. Scalia’s seat would later be filled by Neil Gorsuch (nominated by President Donald Trump).

Discuss the nature of lifetime appointments to the federal judiciary, and the several steps taken by the president to select a nominee for the U.S. Supreme Court and the steps taken in the U.S. Senate that may result in confirmation or rejection of a nominee to the high court for a lifetime position. Does this seem like a fair process? What extent does it have on the political leaning of the Court, and therefore, on United States law (specifically civil rights and civil liberties)? Cite specific examples. Consider the concepts of judicial activism and judicial restraint in your response.

As you consider the title, scope and content of each exhibition, analyze elements of
exhibition design, including, but not limited to, use of space and overall structure;
entry, paths and exit; lighting; sight lines; crowd control; label location and
information (including ownership); mannequin style and display; supporting
objects, if any. Keep in mind curatorial and general viewer perspectives, and
support all subjective statements with specific objective points.
Below are excerpts from A Short Guide to Writing about Art, 8th Edition by Sylvan
Barnet. Please use it as a reference.
A review usually includes:
● Description
● Analysis
● Evaluation
A description tells readers what something looks like: A description in a review tells
us how big the exhibition is, how the works are displayed, and it tells us what some
of the works look like.
An analysis tells readers how some aspects of the exhibition work and what all
parts of the exhibition add up to.
An evaluation tells readers whether the exhibition was worth doing, how well it has
been done, and whether it is worth seeing – and of course these judgments must
be supported with evidence.
When drafting your review, keep asking yourself: What do my readers need to
know?
Structure of Review:
● A title that engages the reader.
● An opening paragraph that informs the reader of the subject, the time period
and subject matter covered. By the end of the opening, the reader should
also sense the reviewer’s thesis, the main point.
● A paragraph that goes into further detail about the theme, purpose, or idea,
or scope embodied in the exhibition.
● A paragraph about the setting and the installation. Reviews often comment,
too, on whether the installation of the material helps or hinders the viewer’s
experience. You will probably consider the lighting and the wall texts and
brochures. Remember: The curators and exhibition designers have shaped
EXHIBITION REVIEW GUIDELINE
the exhibition by choosing certain works and displaying them in a certain
way.
● A paragraph on the strengths. Single out the works you find especially
interesting.
● A paragraph on the weaknesses.
● A concluding paragraph in which the reviewer in effect summarizes (but in
fresh language) the point, the thesis, that has been established throughout
the review.
Some final tips:
● Read any texts that are on the walls.
● If a brochure is available at the exhibition, take one and read it.
● Take pictures (unless prohibited by the museum) and notes while you are at
the exhibition.
