To answer these questions, use a mix of the book and the lectures I post on our website. As for length, use your best judgment: a couple sentences are not enough, while exceeding a page for any one answer is way too much.
Submitting your responses over e-mail will be your attendance for that day. Important: save your file as a pdf and name like this: lastname_firstname_Early_Renaissance_4_17_2020 (remember to swap your actual name on the template—so for me the title of the pdf would be Gerspacher_Arnaud_Gothic_3_20_2020). When you e-mail me your pdf as an attachment, be sure to also use the title of the document as the reference line in your e-mail. Be sure to e-mail me at [email protected]
