Enlightenment Philosophers Ball Project
For this project, you will become an Enlightenment philosopher and follow these steps:

1. Choose a philosopher from the bottom of the "Age of Enlightenment" wikipedia entry or choose from the following list: Enlightenment ABC-CLIO Article

2. Explore interesting websites that contain quality information about your philosopher. Enlightenment Modern History Sourcebook

3. Compile useful information and cite your sources on your own Enlightenment wiki page.

4. Choose an excerpt of one of your philosopher's most famous works and copy and paste it into your wiki page. Then, summarize and interpret it on your wiki page with questions for the class.

5. Gather costume material and props for your role as your Enlightenment philosopher in our own Enlightenment Philosopher's Ball.

6. Get into character so that you can effectively play your philosopher at the ball and convince other students and me that you are really that person.

7. Be ready to answer Kant's central question in a roundtable discussion at the end of this part of the unit.

8. Have fun and enjoy learning about the philosophers and philosophies that help all of us enjoy the freedom and education we are taking part of today!

Here is an example of what the Philosopher's Ball looked like last year at my old school:

Rules of the Ant Farm (READ THIS!):
= =
 * 1) No murdering other students' characters--you CAN murder other students' characters' relations.
 * 2) IF you kill another student's character's family member, you MUST notify them on the discussion page of their character's wiki.
 * 3) You have to suffer the consequences of your actions in all following diaries. If you kill somebody in diary 1, it can't disappear in diary 2. Keep the story going.
 * 4) There should be a //**realistic, convincing reason for all actions you take**//. Take risks and show the tensions and madness of this period, yes; but be careful--don't be silly; be convincing.
 * 5) You can always converse and interact with more people than assigned.
 * 6) If you read something that bothers you, privately inform the teacher. Your privacy will be protected.

Diary Assessment Criteria:

 * **Credibility / Realism:** Are your character's actions believable to the reader? Do we understand the reasons he/she does what she does?
 * **Historical Accuracy:** Do you include convincing and accurate historical details in your "historical fiction"?
 * //Include **at least one detail** (image or dialogue) that shows the following factors in your character's life://
 * social factors
 * political factors
 * economic factors
 * cultural factors
 * daily life
 * **Creativity:** Are your character, your events, and your writing imaginative, full of images, drama?
 * **Collaboration:** Are you giving good feedback--based on the feedback questions--to your assigned peer review partners?

Diary Prompts

 * __Ant Farm Diary Entry #1__:** Your first diary will be of a day in the life of your character in the year 1788 (the year before the Revolution broke out) that reflects the tensions in France during that time. Think of the causes we discussed that would be effecting your daily life. For each character, the causes should be different! **Length: 250-300 Words**




 * Ant Farm Diary Entry #2:** Your secondary diary will be a reaction to the Storming of the Bastille, 14 July 1789. In this diary entry, you need to collaborate with at least one other character in a realistic way and describe your character's responses to the events of that day as well as your views of the coming revolution. Key questions you should think about are as follows. **Length: 250-300 Words**


 * How do you feel about King Louis XVI and royal authority?
 * What do you think of the National Assembly?
 * How do you feel about the citizens' actions at the Bastille?
 * Where do you think the revolution will lead?




 * Ant Farm Diary Entry #3:** Your third diary entry will be your response to the radical phase of the revolution. In this diary entry, you need to collaborate somehow with a new character in a realistic way and describe your character's responses to the events of this time. You can divide this into two or three entries if you want to incorporate certain events. Remember our class brainstorm where we identified some of the key elements of the radical phase of the revolution. **Length: 250-300 Words**


 * Conciergerie prison and political/religious prisoners
 * Guillotine = 18,000 people were sentenced to death during this phase
 * Nobles/clergy losing money and power
 * Revolutionary Tribunal = courts that sentenced people to death if they were seen to be against the government
 * Reign of Terror led by Maximillien Robespierre and his Committee for Public Safety
 * Constant change of government
 * Continued economic problems
 * Wars with all other European powers




 * Ant Farm Diary Entry #4:** It is now 1804 and Napoleon Bonaparte has successfully ended the French Revolution and reestablished order with the Napoleonic Code. How does the French Revolution end for your character? Some questions to consider are as follows. **Length: 250-300 Words**


 * Do you agree or disagree with Napoleon's reforms?
 * Do you think the revolution was a success or a failure?
 * What do you think about France's future?
