HIST 110:
HIST 110 was an honors course that focused on modern western civilization history. This course also completed my Goal 7 General Education requirement. The honors section of this class definitely challenged and helped expand our knowledge on the history presented in the course and how we can connect it to almost every aspect of our lives.

‘Staging Absolutism’ by Kelsey Ostrowski on Jan. 27, 2017.
Artifact Description:
This work was created in reference to associated documents related to the Age of Absolutism. It is a unique type of paper in which I had to provide a thorough breakdown of the meanings of the written sources, artwork, and architecture of the time period. In addition to that, I produced a response to research questions that were related to the overall relationship between art,literature, or architecture and the history. This paper is one of my favorites due to its diverse approach of analyzing the time period. I do think that I could have created a better and more thorough response to the research question, but I do believe that my analysis of the documents were appropriate and adequate.
