Although most sources on Lysistrata categorize it as Old Comedy, many who study Aristophanes see this play as a watershed moment at which the genre shifts and begins to introduce some of the elements we will see become common in New Comedy.
For this exam, please discuss how Lysistrata contains elements associated with New Comedy.
How to answer this well:
This is not a research paper; you should NOT look at any sources other than what we have for class.
Structuring your discussion by topic rather than by play will help a lot.
Be sure to use information from our sources and document where you are getting that information. You do not have to include a bibliography, but you do have to cite via parenthetical citation where the sources and quotes are coming from.
When you talk about episodes in the plays, you don’t need to spend time explaining how the characters got there in the plot. If you find yourself summarizing plot action, ask yourself if you’ve strayed away from the topic/point you’re making.
You do not need to include a general introduction about the nature of comedy or the history Lysistrata; I know it’s comforting to write a general intro, but in a short paper, it’s important to dive right in to the topic and spend the space on enlarging your discussion.
Length and Formatting:
Everyone writes differently. Some people are efficient writers and some people are chatty (I am a chatty writer). That said, I would be surprised if anyone could write a solid answer in under 4 full pages, 5 full pages is more realistic.
Please use a Times font, 12 point, and 1.5 line spacing.
Please put your full name on the paper and page numbers on every page.
Please EMAIL the exam to me as a Word doc.

Thinking Sociologically – An Autoethnography
Overview: For this assignment, you are to imagine you are writing an autoethnography – a form of self-reflection that connects your experiences to wider cultural and social meanings and understandings. Because this assignment is self-reflexive, you will want to write in first-person; this is your story, so use your voice. To reflect on your own experiences, you are required to answer the questions listed below. Your answers to each of the following questions should have a basis in sociology. Additionally, you should be applying at least five sociological concepts with proper citations in your paper; however, exceptional papers will include more. Your audience for this autoethnography is the general public, so this means you should provide a definition of sociological concepts and cite them. You must also provide in-text citations using the APA style-guide, and a reference page at the end. The purpose of this assignment is to familiarize yourself with a type of research paper in a self-reflexive style.
