Choose one topic you have researched for your journals and write a term paper (7-9 pages.) incorporating facts as well as your personal opinion on the subject. (The topic I chose for this was renaissance and baroque art, the difference between the two, the different art styles and mediums used from Florence to Venice, and the artists that made these breakthroughs in each style of art. Examples of notable artists like Michaelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Caravaggio, etc. Also the Medici family's influence on renaissance art.)

Please address the following in your paper:

Does the topic you chose to write about fit into that time period?

Describe how one era impacted on the following era.

Did it benefit Italy or was it detrimental to Italy? Explain.

Please give evidence to support your writing. You must cite your sources. (Please put the citations on the last page. If there is time, make it APA format. If not, just paste it on the last page and it is okay. I would like to have 6-7 pages of the factual information, and the 7th or 8th page can be personal opinion which I will fill out myself.)
