Writing Homework Help

I’m working on a art discussion question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

QUESTION 1:

After viewing this debate on the Elgin Marbles, write a one-paragraph response stating what YOU think their fate should be. Should they remain in the British Museum in London, or do you think they should be returned to the Greek government?

As part of your response, look up ONE ARTICLE online (provide the link) that addresses the controversy. Does it influence your opinion in any way? QUESTION 2: Visit the following websites on Ancient Roman buildings and monuments:

1) http://www.crystalinks.com/rome.html

2) https://www.ancient.eu/Colosseum/

3) http://www.robinurton.com/history/ancient/rome.htm

Now with the information from the above websites

• Discuss Roman ingenuity in a building.
  • Discuss a building or monument that illustrates how the Romans made technical and engineering advancements.
  • These can include the Pantheon, Colosseum, aqueducts, baths, etc.
    • Be sure to discuss HOW the engineering made it possible for the structure to be built and to function.
    • QUESTION 3: Islam rapidly spread across the tip of North Africa from the Near East, and into both India and Spain. Despite geographic contrasts, what features do mosques typically have in common? List the common components of mosque architecture, with an example of a mosque that we have not covered in class. Discuss how those elements have been constructed and are articulated in the mosque you have chosen, including its decorative elements and materials used. You must address at least 5 features of mosque architecture that you have learned, and include an image of the mosque you have chosen.
      • QUESTION 4:
      • WHY did the Neo-Gothic style become popular again in the nineteenth century? Be sure to cite your answer.
      • Provide an example of nineteenth-century Neo-Gothic architecture.
        • Preferably provide an example of something that you have seen in person, perhaps on a college campus.
        • Attach a jpeg image of the building
          • Give its details (location, name, purpose, etc).
          • Point out the features of the building that make it Gothic.
