Instructions

One of the most common functions of art is to tell stories. This is especially true of Greek
mythology, which has a long history in art from vase paintings to oil paintings. Mythology works a
little like the telephone game in which a phrase is gradually changed the more it is repeated by
different people. In their retelling, every storyteller adds their own twist to the story often reflecting
different cultural values and ideals. This means that any myth could have an endless array of
variations and interpretations. In this assignment, you will use the outline you wrote in Step #1 to
write an essay that compares both objects using formal analysis. Your paper must have the
following: an introduction paragraph with a thesis statement, a formal analysis that supports that
thesis, and a conclusion paragraph that reinforces that thesis and provides any additional
interpretation to the reader.

Step 2: Write your paper

Using your reviewed and edited outline, write your paper. As you write your paper, make sure you
have a strong introduction that sets up your topic and thesis statement, providing any background
information about the myth or images necessary to understand your analysis. Specifically, you
should introduce your two images by name, introduce the topic (the myth), and establish your
thesis statement. Your introduction should be around 150 to 200 words long.

For your supporting analysis, remember to utilize the relevant vocabulary you have already learned
and effectively transition from one point to another. Effective transitions help you connect the
individual points of your argument to one another and to the argument as a whole. The Purdue

[https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/purdue_owl.html](https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/purdue_owl.html)

OwlLinks to an external site. provides some good background on transitions and useful devices for
writing strong transitions. Your supporting analysis should be 1000-1500 words long.

Your paper should end with a strong conclusion that wraps up any of your points, reinforces the
argument, and provides any additional interpretation you would like to leave your reader. The
conclusion should be 150 to 200 words long and not have any new points or supporting
information.

Citations

As always if you cite a source outside of the two images, you need to cite it according to the
Chicago Manual of Style. This means you need both footnotes and works cited. For the provided
sources, adhere to the following formats:
