– work on developing an essay similar to those that Gould wrote for his column in Natural History Magazine, called “This View of Life” – musings of an evolutionary biologist who found analogies between evolutionary processes and diverse aspects of human culture.
– you will need to include at least one visual: figure (graph, photo, drawing), or table, …) in your essay and label it!
– topics for Essay – which relates to our study of Culture and Cultural Evolution. For this essay, you need to brain-storm a commonality between biology and another field of study (such as art, music, literature, history, technology etc.)
Try to develop an analogy between biology/ evolution – and art, literature, etc. You might think about change – perhaps how an art movement has changed/evolved similarly to biological/ evolutionary change.
