Medieval people thought of truth as preexisting, that is, as handed down from antiquity in the form of biblical or classical writing. As far as you can tell, did Renaissance thinkers actually break with this point of view? Defend your answer with specific references to the assigned readings for this course.

“Almost all the art before the Renaissance was created by people for whom the notion of art did not exist.” Discuss this assertion, offering examples of the new self-consciousness and individualism of Renaissance artists.

In what ways does abstraction give power to African sculpture? Use illustrations in the text to cite specific examples. Can any similarities be found between African art and Native American totems? Describe and explain using specific details and examples from the readings.

Montaigne’s essay On Cannibals depicts the natives of Brazil in a much more favorable light than their French contemporaries, who were engaged in the horrors of religious civil war. Interestingly enough, Montaigne concludes that Europeans are incapable of seeing virtue and accomplishment in “people who don’t wear pants.” Explain what he means by this and describe why his statement was relevant and/or controversial at the time it was written. To what extent may Montaigne’s essays be regarded as satiric?

Informal social networks in avoiding or moving on from homelessness?

I need someone to write my 4000 word 'literature review chapter' and 4000 word 'methodology chapter' for my dissertation as I am going round in circles with no time left. My dissertation question is "How important are informal social networks in avoiding and moving on from homelessness?" When I quote'informal social networks' I am referring to family and friends support and influence, looking at it holistically ie from a psychological, sociological, economic, equality, inclusion, personalisation,physical and mental health etc point of view as many homeless have multi complex needs that need addressing and/or assisting for a positive and long-term resettlement. From my experience so far there are pro and cons of informal support depending on whether they are a good or bad influence but most reports written describe that family and friends have a big influence on pathway out of homelessness.
My main focus will be Scottish homelessness. Scotland law is different from UK and other countries law and this difference needs to be reflected within my chapters. Under Scottish law no one should be homeless in Scotland due to present Acts but holding on to that home is another debate and one I will be focusing on.
From up-to-date figures from the Scottish gov - breakdown in relationships is the largest reason for homelessness. I am hoping once passed by ethic to ask approximately 30 service users who are receiving housing support from third sector providers in a semi-rural (Ayrshire) and urban (Glasgow) to complete a questionnaire on their views and experiences on informal support on their pathway out of homelessness and maintaining a home compared to just formal support. I am also hoping to send a questionnaire to some Scottish councils to ask their views on informal social networks and whether they consider this when offering housing ie do they try to offer housing near family an friends at the service users request or is it not taken into consideration? Do they offer mediation, befriending or mentoring support alongside 'daily living' support? etc etc
In each chapter there must be subheading. These I will leave for us to discuss once all literature is found and will be open to suggestions. As already stated I am basing by dissertation on Scottish service users own personal experiences of homelessness and law so this is a must be reflected within choosing what methodology/research design I use, however,I do need to include UK laws/reports and other countries reports to compare against/discuss. I would like definitions on 'Homelessness' and 'informal social network' to be included. I would additionally like included the following reports 'Rock Trust- BEYOND HOMELESSNESS FINAL REPORT 2013'(a great read on my chosen subject and foundation for dissertation); 'Groundswell - the escape plan report'; 'Shelter Scotland'(there are several reports written by them); 'The FOR-Home Study - moves to independent living 2011'; 'Pathe Project Simon Community - Crossing the Continuum understanding routes out of homelessness and examining what works final report 2005' and at least one or two from other organisations such as Task Force Scotland, Homeless Link etc as well as other reports and journal reports etc from the UK and abroad within my literature review. I am advised that there should be at least minimum of 10 literature research reports within my literature chapter. Additionally, I would like somewhere in the literature review some thing on the Scottish Government latest homeless figures. I am sure there are other questions that need answering but I feel this is better on a one to one bases with the chosen writer once allocated to me as they will want to clarify things with me as I do not know at this stage what they need from me as I have never used this service before.

Dissertation Chapter - Discussion, English Literature (Classic and Modern)

In at least 300 words, identify three "Frequently Repeated Motifs" of the traditional slave narrative that are also present in Kindred. Explain how these motifs (i.e. themes) function in Butler’s text by referring to at least three specific moments in the novel. Note: The "Frequently Repeated Motifs" are listed on this week's "The Slave Narrative" reading (see link under Week 3 Lectures, Readings, and Web Resources folder); there are eight motifs for you to choose from as you craft your response.

Then compare and contrast Dana’s experience with those of Douglass and Jacobs. How is Dana’s experience similar to Douglass's and Jacobs's? How is it different? In other words, discuss how Butler’s neo-slave narrative might both reinforce and revise the traditional slave narrative from the 19th century.

Be sure to meet all requirements as outlined on the Discussion Board Rubric. Remember to meet the length requirement and to incorporate evidence from the literature by including at least one direct quotation and MLA in-text citation from Kindred, one from Douglass's narrative, and one from Jacobs's narrative. NO SECONDARY SOURCES FROM THE INTERNET.R
