Hts. There are obviously millions of different artifacts that I could of picked, but I decided to go for a few that I personally enjoyed.Artifact 1: Allen Ginsberg's poem "Howl". This poem can be analyzed ideologically because the poem pretty much expresses Ginsberg's ideology on life. It expresses his views on being gay in America. It also can be viewed as the credo of the beatnik generation.
Artifact 2: Paul Thomas Anderson's There Will Be Blood. This film is very rich in symbolism and can be taken in many different ways. The main metaphor set up by There Will Be Blood is that of greed and human nature to thirst for excessive amounts of goods.
Artifact 3: Thomas Paine's Common Sense. This artifact touching more on my history minor, it is a symbol of the ideologies that forged America's Declaration of Independence. It was a pamphlet that laid out the absurdities in British rule over America.
These artifacts all can be analyzed for their ideologies, something I hope to do later in this course.
