Module #8

#1. I chose the video The Measure of All Things: Greek Art and the Human Figure because after watching the required video, this video was the only one that the title related to the required video. It also sounded more interesting to learn more about the human body.

#2. More Human Than Human: Key Concepts
- August 7th, 1908 three archeologists found the first figure of a woman made out of limestone
- She turned out to be 25,000 years old and is worth 60 million dollars
- People have rarely created images of the body that are realistic
- Old figures all have something in common: exaggerated breasts, genitalia, hips, and ignoring other things like the face and arms.
- It is thought that the human ancestor's brain must have been programmed to make those sexual organs bigger than the other parts because of the importance they played
- Exaggeration of sexual organs did not stay for the Egyptian era
- The Greeks made realistic version of the body and worried about creating the perfect image

The Measure of All Things: Greek Art and the Human Figure: Key Concepts
- The history of statues in the fifth and sixth century
- Greek pottery
- The Olympic Games
- Everyday life
- The Gods
- Idealized strength, beauty, and the human body
- The love with the ideal beauty and the body is still very important today

#3. More Human Than Human and The Measure of All Things: Greek Art and the Human Figure relate the the text because both focus on how artist see the human body. Also how the artists can interpret the body realistically or unrealistically like in statues. Both also talks about the Greeks influence on the statues.

#4. I liked films because they both add depth how others saw the human body. Like the Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians. The videos also explained how and why the body was interpreted ideally or realistically.
