Tartuffe Assignment I
Instructions
This is an opportunity to evaluate the differences between the actual text of the play and a filmed production of the play.
You now have two options.
1.) View the movie. It is available at the Eissey Campus Media Center (2nd floor of the LLRC). It may also be available at the Lake Worth Campus or at selected film services such at Blockbuster or Netflix. Make note of any differences between the play in your text and the play presented in the movie version. Submit a list of any differences you noted. This is a long "essay" assignment–although, actually, your submission will be a list rather than an essay. Enjoy the movie!
OR
2.) If you do not choose Option 1, you may select five (5) different scenes from the play. These scenes should be five that you found particularly funny. Point out the scenes (Act, scene, and lines) and then write 100 well chosen and precise words on each of the scenes (500 words in all) on why that scene is funny. You must be specific and detailed.

Throughout the paper you should support your ideas with the help of outside sources (scholars, writers, personal interviews, texts, etc.), which you acknowledge. Not biographies, please.

Make sure to compare the styles musically, and lyrically! Tell me your own opinions as well! Which do you like the best?

Exploring the Culture and Music Behind Four Styles of Rap Music: West Coast, East Coast, Southern, and Gangster Rap Music
Over the last couple decades a cultural evolution of Rap music emerged. It is a part of the hip hop subculture. Hip hop music is a genre that was developed by four key stylistic elements of rapping, DJing/scratching, sampling, and beat boxing. Rapping is a vocal style in which the artist speaks lyrically, in rhyme and verse with musical accompaniment, almost always in 4/4 time signature. The poetic and rhythmic style of music is commonly recorded as a form of cultural expression. The common forms of Rap are influential of four main kinds which are West Coast, East Coast, gangster and Southern styles.
