Plagiarism

http://www.plagiarism.org/

What is plagiarism?

“Plagiarism is a serious offense. It is plagiarism when one submits someone else's ideas, thoughts or words as his/hers without acknowledgment or citation. Thus, it is imperative that you cite your sources with footnotes or endnotes, and a bibliography or works-cited page if requested by your professor. If you quote directly, put the quoted words in quotation marks and cite the source in a note. If you summarize or paraphrase someone else's material or if you borrow a distinctive idea, even though you have not made a direct quote or even used any of the same words, you must still make an acknowledgement or citation in a note.”

Art History: Renaissance to the Present

Barbara Allie, Instructor
San Jose City College

The Renaissance was a cultural movement that began in Florence in the 14th century and ended about three centuries later, but not before spreading throughout Europe, influencing social and political ideas, and creating one of the greatest artistic periods of all time. The word itself, in French means “rebirth” and Italian – Rinascimento, from ri- “again” and nascere “be born”.

As a cultural rebirth and artistic movement, the Renaissance Period drew upon classical sources to develop linear perspective in drawing and painting, and often is viewed as a bridge between the Middle Ages and the Modern era. Although the Renaissance had many intellectual developments other than in the arts, this historic period has come to be known for men of genius (The Renaissance Man) such as Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo.
