“The Green Table: A Dance of Death in Eight Scenes – A Critique”
Video to watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=un5kYC8jpUk
Read entire prompt before beginning:
Watch the entire video clip on the ballet The Green Table by choreographer Kurt Jooss.
You will be writing a three paragraph critique on the ballet The Green Table which is also subtitled “A Dance of Death in Eight Scenes” which includes The Gentlemen in Black, The Farewells, The Battle, The Refugees, The Partisan, The Brothel, The Aftermath and then the return of The Gentlemen in Black. Use only these titles and if you are not sure what the word in the title means, look it up. Do not research this ballet, your critique should be formed by the movements in the ballet and what we have learned in class. No need for time stamps in this situation, instead, use vivid descriptions of the movements in each section to support your analysis. Heavy/intellectual analysis without the descriptions showing evidence of viewing the ballet will not be given credit so be sure to describe the ballet to the reader. Papers are checked for Plagiarism, AI, Chat and must sound human and be well described. The first paragraph: Introduction-This paragraph should introduce the ballet (key players) and state what you feel the choreographer was trying to communicate. Three to five sentences will suffice. The second paragraph should describe the first 4 sections including the name of the section, vivid descriptions of the dance (and dancer’s movements and facial expressions/emotions) followed by your analysis of each section (two to three sentences per section is sufficient.)
The third paragraph should describe the last 4 sections including the name of the section, vivid descriptions of the dance (and dancer’s movements and facial expressions/emotions) followed by your analysis of each section (again two to three sentences per section is sufficient.)
In addition, include in the paper (you may decide where but do not exceed the three paragraphs) the choreographer’s use of the skeleton character and what you think he represents as well as the top hat character in the white shirt and black pants and what he represents in the ballet. Both characters weave in and out of the ballet. Include a short one or two sentence conclusion at the end of the third paragraph and proofread your paper for proper grammar, punctuation, capitalization and spelling. Make sure you have reviewed the power point and read the article on writing critiques as well as the module on the key players in one of our first modules before you write your paper. You may also want to review comments from myself on your writing in the discussion posts for optimal success. I have also provided time stamps for the different sections of the ballet to help with your critique. The titles are also available in the prompt above and go in order:
Start times:
Gentlemen in Black 0:00
The Farewells-5:35 The Battle-9:54 The Refugees- 14:34
The Partisan-19:48
The Brothel- 22:52
The Aftermath-27 min mark
Gentlemen in Black 33:42 -
Title: The Power of Parables and Fables in Teaching Morality and Ethics
Oral storytelling is a rich tradition that has existed for centuries. For people who did not know how to read or write, oral storytelling was a way to pass down information from generation to generation. These stories varied in purpose ranging from entertainment to teaching about culture and history. Oral stories about history, genealogy, battles, and political uprisings of a community could last hours or days. Oral traditions provide a moral compass from which social and human interactions gain direction. Fables, folktales, legends, and myths are all part of that oral tradition. Each of these types of oral stories has distinguishing properties to help identify them. For example, a fable is defined as a short story, not founded on fact, used to teach a lesson or moral, often using animals or inanimate objects as the characters.
The importance of the parables can hardly be overestimated. They comprise a substantial part of the recorded preaching of Jesus. The parables are generally regarded by scholars as among the sayings which we can confidently ascribe to the historical Jesus; they are, for the most part, authentic words of Jesus. Moreover, all of the great themes of Jesus’ preaching are struck in the parables. Perhaps no part of the Gospels, then, can better put us into touch with the mind of Jesus Christ than the parables. They still today present us with the challenge with which Jesus encountered his hearers in first-century Palestine. These little stories (together with the Lord’s Prayer and the Beatitudes) are the best known of all Jesus’ words. It is a measure of the value that Christian Churches place upon them..
Answer the prompt below:
Parables and fables have been around for ages, but their purposes have stayed the same. They are used in a didactic sense: storytelling is meant to teach a lesson. Only the medium has changed. While both started out as oral traditions, they have since been added to our literature. Today, most of them are used to help teach still-developing children morals and ethics that society holds valuable. Which would use you to teach morality and ethics, Fables or Parables, and why?

“The Function of Art in Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray: From First Draft to Final Draft”
Hello,
I have a first draft (3 pages) of an essay with feedback specifically on the highlighted sentences if tapped on, I will attach it as a pdf below. I will also attach my paper instructions as a photo below. So basically, what is needed is to turn this 3 page first draft into an overall 5 page final draft with the feedback given. Prompt: “What is the function that art plays in Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray?” (Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray) BOOK – This is the overall feedback, other than the highlighted specific feedback, which is NOT in the pdf: Focus first on developing your close readings. So far in this draft there are none, so you need to locate which claims you want to make and then find quotations or details from the text that you want to use as evidence to develop these ideas further. – I am not yet seeing an original central claim in your introduction, and am seeing snippets of claims in the paragraphs but which are also not yet fully articulated. Start first with your close readings, and then work through what claims you are making.
Thank you,
Good luck. -
