AP Art History Summer Assignment 2014

Egyptian Art

 

Required:

The order of these tasks matters. If you “do” these tasks in the order I list them, then your life will be much happier and your experience with Egyptian art will be richer. I promise!

  1. 1.      Check out a copy of Stokstad; check out a copy of Glancey.

  2. 2.      Read pages 18-21 in Glancey. Lots of pictures. Easy reading. Glossy overview.

  3. 3.       Watch the following videos on the Khan Academy SmartHistory website (located at YouTube).
    http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL26A5D7AA0F7CE7E7

 

Take three sets of Cornell! notes. Each set should be about two pages (two sides) long.

Set #1 should be titled: Egyptian Writing

Watch: Rosetta Stone, 196 B.C.E

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFXY9-pec1I

 

The Seated Scribe, c. 2620-2500 B.C.E.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxs1d3N60UI&list=PL26A5D7AA0F7CE7E7

Judgement in the Presence of Osiris, Hunefer's Book of the Dead

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WceVwMdN0eE&list=PL26A5D7AA0F7CE7E7

Set #2 should be titled: Egyptian Rulers

Watch: Ramesses II, Egypt, c. 1250

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXUKfJ4XDk4&list=PL26A5D7AA0F7CE7E7

 

House Altar Depicting Akhenaten, Nefertiti and Three Daughters

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryycDVWXDvc&list=PL26A5D7AA0F7CE7E7&index=3

 

Set #3 should be titled: Egyptian Women

Watch: Thutmose, Bust of Nefertiti, c. 1340 BCE

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZuYdIRAIAs&list=PL26A5D7AA0F7CE7E7

Portrait Head of Queen Tiye with a Crown of Two Feathers
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j55j1NZoAKk&list=PL26A5D7AA0F7CE7E7&index=42

 

  1. 4.        Now, Read pages 92-126 in Stokstad.
    Don’t panic. There are “only” 23 pages of actual reading, because there are lots of images. Read these pages—3-5 pages at a time—without taking notes. Then sort through the typed out notes provided by Bronwyn—see attached!—and fill in what I believe you must remember for always.

 

 

 

 

Extra Enrichment:

Which is a sneaky way of saying extra credit. If you find yourself hopelessly jazzed by Egyptian art, keep going! There will be lots of opportunities like this one throughout the year. If you are jazzed by a period or an “ism” there will always be more that you can study. And more work equals more points (extra credit!).

 

 

BBC resource: A History of the World in 100 Objects. These are fifteen minute podcasts that place object in cultural context. They are awfully good. I listed below the ones that pertain to Egypt.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/ahistoryoftheworld/about/british-museum-objects/

Use the title of the object being explored as the title of your set of notes. One podcast equals one set of Cornell! notes (1.5 pages).

1: Mummy of Hornedjitef

11: King Den's Sandal Label

20: Statue of Ramesses II

33: Rosetta Stone

The Rosetta Stone is one of the most famous objects in the British Museum but the actual contents of its inscription is less well-known. The inscription is a decree that affirms the royal cult of the 13-year-old Ptolemy V on the first anniversary of his coronation in 196 BC. The same inscription is written in three different scripts: Greek, hieroglyphs, and demotic Egyptian. It was this Greek inscription that allowed modern scholars to begin to decipher hieroglyphs for the first time.

Why is the Rosetta Stone written in three different scripts?
In 332 BC, Egypt was conquered by Alexander the Great. After Alexander's death, his former general Ptolemy I ruled Egypt. His Greek descendents known as the Ptolemies ruled Egypt for the next 300 years. The Ptolemaic period witnessed a fusion of Greek and Egyptian cultures. Greek was the official language of the court, while hieroglyphs were limited to use by the priests. Demotic Egyptian was the native script used for everyday purposes.

 

 

Netflix resource: these videos are awfully good and stream live.
(Again, take Cornell! notes as a proof that you watched the documentary—each is approx. 50 minutes long).

Egypt: Engineering an Empire

Egypt's Golden Empire

episode two: Pharaohs of the Sun

Required: take at least one Practice AP Art History test on Shmoop!
 
Alexa Luna--your username is alexluna456
Dezeray Cruz--your username is dezcruz097. But I did not make you an account. You already had one with that username.

Remember, your user name is a 3/5/3 (first three letters of your first name, first five letters of your last name, last three digits of your student id number). 
Your password is your brithday in a 2/2/2 format--month, day, year -- I am August 10, 1969 which equals 081069.

There are two versions--one a Microsoft Document and one a rich text document.
I purposefully ordered the 10 pages of notes from most important to least important--so if you run out of time....remember, the exam is in some ways a ridiculous impossibility: all the art from all time...so just do your best and approach the assignments with joy...learn what you can learn.
 
 
Additional Extra Credit: Start working your way through Glancey pages 134-229.
The important topics in order from page 134 to page 229 (in other words, there is stuff you can skip!)...
