Document Summary

School of arts and letters, atkinson faculty of liberal and professional studies. Wilde pictures and sounds: more representations of the femme fatale. So here it is, the moment you"ve been dreading opera. Yes, you"ll need to listen to/watch the excerpt specified, but it should be relatively painless as it will only be 5-10 minutes of your life. So far, i"ve been focusing on the two larger concepts that are implied by the title of this course: stories (narrative) and different media, using the term adaptation. Opera is not only one of the art forms through which we can discuss one of our designated stories, but it is also one that combines various media. Like film, opera unites several of the arts when it is performed. It is a significant precursor to a couple of art forms with which you are very familiar: movies, of course, together with their music, as well as multimedia forms of representation, such as computers.

Macroeconomics ( 250-300 words)

Read the Introduction (pp. 1-13) and excerpt from Chapter 2: Free Peanuts and Expensive Batteries (pp. 29-41) from The Economic Naturalist by Robert Frank.

Discuss Rudyard Kipling popularized the Just So stories as a fictional way to explain why things happened in a particular way. Robert Frank applies a similar approach to come up with non-fictional, economically sound explanations for various economic phenomena, such as why gas tanks on cars are not always on the same side; why child safety seats aren't required on planes; or why people can take as many newspapers as they want from vending machines, but not take as many sodas as they want. For the first online assignment, you will find your own example.

Using Frank's approach, find an example in the news or in your personal experience relating to the price of an item or relative prices of different items, the supply, and demand for an item, the design of an item, the wages of a particular job, an item which is sold for different prices to different people, or an item that exhibits market failure (such as a public good or that has an externality). You MUST indicate your source (ie news article, etc). Using this example, you must write an opening question such as Frank uses (eg. Why do restaurants offer free refills on coffee? or Why do color photographs sell for less than black and white?). Give your reasoning using the relevant concept in microeconomics to explain the situation. There is probably no single correct answer, so you should make your best argument.
