Be sure to read all of the instructions (the entire file). PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS. General Instructions: For your final essay, you will be looking at general topics/themes—ideas that connect the stories and poems in Volume E: American Literature since 1945 . All reading selections must come from the textbook. Here is a link to the table of contents (in case you don't have the book): http://media.wwnorton.com/cms/contents/NAAL8_VE_TOC.pdf Before writing your essay, please read either the introduction to Volume E or the briefer online introductions (copied below). As you will see, one of the introductions is to the 7th edition; the other is from the 8th. You should read both of these and use various statements as support for your essay. You will find the part called "Literary Developments" and the timeline very useful. In your essay (750-1000 words or more), you will trace one of these general ideas through at least four pieces of literature by different writers (poets, playwrights, fiction writers-- no essays, speeches, or non-fiction prose ) from this time period. In other words, you will be discussing t he work of four writers; you may include more than one work by each of the four writers. The paper should be in essay form with an introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion rather than a collection of reading responses. Please do not use sub-headings. You must use quotations from the reading selections as support for your general ideas. You should not use the same works that you used in your reading responses for Volume E or the novel or short story that you wrote about in your research paper. Please do not choose long reading selections for this paper. If you have questions or need suggestions, please let me know. The final should show me that you have read selections from various parts of Volume E. Here are some possible ways to group the reading selections (choose one ): Reading selections that show the increasing diversity in America literature during this time period Reading selections that show how writers viewed significant social issues (especially in the area of civil rights, including women's rights and gay rights) Reading selections that reveal something about relationships between parents and children (especially adults looking back on their relationships with their parents) Reading selections that reveal something about relationships between men and women Reading selections that reveal the effects of historical events on individuals (including events that occurred before this time period) (Note: If you are using the 7th edition, you may use one poem or story from the September 11 section, but not all. I want you to find poems or stories that relate to a variety of historical events.) If you consult sources for the paper.

Research Paper Assignment Sheet For your third paper assignment, you will use a primary source in an introductory paragraph to introduce your topic and develop a thesis. Then, you will support and develop your thesis claim by using outside research (secondary sources) to expand, illustrate, and/or supplement that claim. Like the other two papers that you've written this semester, your research essay must be an academic paper that provides an analysis of texts and develops an argument regarding an assigned topic. You are not writing an informative report but must instead develop an argument to support your thesis. In your research paper, you will need to discuss one of the topics that you'll find in the file that is attached below. The topics are taken from Topics for Discussion: Unit 4 , so you should begin your exploration of them as you post responses for those discussion topics. Follow the Paper Plan & Development Strategy from Writing Your Research Paper to develop and organize your essay into an introduction (one introductory paragraph), body (multiple body paragraphs), and conclusion (one concluding paragraph). This essay should be 4-5 pages, not counting the Works Cited page (one-inch margins, typed and double-spaced). You will need to use MLA documentation (see MLA Documentation for Research Papers). Be sure to cite all quotations, paraphrases, and references to outside sources in proper MLA style. Include a Works Cited page as the final page of your paper (see pages 356-398 in your grammar handbook for tips and reminders). You must use 3 secondary sources (found through your research) along with one primary source (from the assigned topics). Secondary sources can be found using TTC's online databases (Infotrac, Biography Resource Center, Literature Resource Center, etc.). Topics The following topics will give you ideas for getting started, but you will need to narrow them to develop your thesis because the topics are broad. You will need to decide what you think about the topic you choose and then develop an argument. Personal experience is not acceptable as evidence in this assignment. Topic I Individual Liberty VS Social Equality What is the relationship between individual liberty and social equality? When-if ever-should one person's individual rights be denied for the social good? In your introductory paragraph, you should discuss Democracy in America to set up this topic. In the body of your paper, you will need to examine a current issue-smoker's rights, gun control, drug testing, or affirmative action, for example-to discuss this issue. Make sure, however, that your paper is not about that issue but instead relates that issue to the topic concerning individual rights and social equality. Topic II The Ideal America Vs the Real America Discuss the relationship between the ideal America and the real America . First, in your introductory paragraph, you should write about the Declaration of Independence.

While the Harlem Renaissance had created a flowering of African American literature, the decades after World War II saw an explosion of ethnic literature. This literature came from numerous cultures, such as Native American, Asian American, African American, and Hispanic. The authors wrote from their own traditions in response to what they saw as the mainstream of American literature and in response to one another. Write a 1,050- to 1,400-word paper in which you define American ethnic literature. Include the following: Incorporate works from at least three distinct literary traditions so that your explanation is representative of the larger literary movement. Select at least one major author from each of these traditions. Describe how American ethnic literature is important and what factors influenced it. Answer the following questions in your analysis: How is American ethnic literature influential on politics and education? How does American ethnic literature respond to elements that it explicitly discusses, such as political inclusion and exclusion? How does American ethnic literature respond to factors that are not discussed as explicitly, such as technological change? Format your paper consistent with appropriate course-level APA guidelines. ...

Page Range: 5 –7 pages, not including the works cited page Objective: Don DeLillo’s White Noise (1985) is a postmodern novel that is critiquing the modern American culture by connecting consumerism to identity and at the center of it all is death. For this assignment, we will research and analyze the novel determining its literary importance using multiple sources. Prompt:For this essay, identify some of the observations/criticisms Don DeLillo is making in his novel White Noise about society in the 1980s and how these observations are still applicable to us today. Outside sources: To support your ideas, you will use: 1.concrete examples from the novel by directly citing key passages 2. 3 scholarly articles that offer an analysis on DeLillo’s White Noise you have found on the library’s database—do not use book reviews—to support your analysis 3.as an option, youmay also include additional articles that speak to pop culture either from our textbook or from periodicals found on the library databases or in the library. 4.Do not use google to research for articles on White Noise. 5.Do not use Wikipedia, blogs,or other questionable sources not considered to be an academic source. Directions: This essay will follow the general structure of an introductionwith a clearly stated thesis statement, body, and conclusion. When citing the authors from the textbook, be sure to adequately introduce the text(s) you will be using to support your points by author’s full name, title of work (either in italics for long works or in quotes for short works)and a brief summary of the text as it relates to the quoted passage. Use proper in-text citations for textual support and format the essay using MLA guidelinesand include a works cited page for all borrowed material. Structure of your essay: This essay will move beyond a 5-paragrpah model. To make a cohesive and complicated argument, pick one main criticism you see this novel making about our American culture (in the 1980s). Once you identify that main criticism, then you will break down different observations DeLillo is making about that criticism in multiple (more than 3) body paragraphs. Each of these paragraphs will build upon the ideas explored in the previous paragraph to create a unified argument. Moreover, as the essay draws near to its end, extend on the criticism DeLillo is making to show how it is applicable to our society today. This could be in a paragraph or two before you conclude. As you can see, this essay will be more than 5 total paragraphs. Analyzing Literature: Analyzing literature can be similar to analyzing a non-fiction text. As you point out specific instances in the novel to show how DeLillo is criticizing the American culture, here are some literary techniques you can explore in your essay: 1.Narrative style isthe way the authors write their stories, such as being told in first-person, the postmodern elements, juxtaposing one person in the story against the other to highlight the diff.

One Step Forward, Two Steps Back: The Counterintuitive Effects of Edna Pontellier’s Suicide in Kate Chopin’s The Awakening By: Anastasiya Golovan 1 Background Kate Chopin’s The Awakening was a groundbreaking novel, especially for its time, due to its radical feminist undertones and theme of women’s independence. In the late 1800’s, women were expected to fit a certain mold in a patriarchal society, being submissive to their husbands and children with little opportunity for personal growth and pleasures. The feminist movement was still in its early stages so many of Chopin’s revolutionary themes about women’s self-discovery, sexuality, and suicide were not commonly accepted. Rebellious, conviction-driven suicide is not completely uncommon, even seen in works of writers like William Shakespeare in his famous play about star-crossed lovers, Romeo and Juliet. Though it is typical for suicide to be morally questioned, it is often romanticized in writing, seemingly making it the valiant solution to the angst brought on by an oppressive society. What sets apart the suicide in The Awakening is the ambiguity behind it and the uncertainty of the protagonist’s true heroism through her suicide. Abstract Kate Chopin was a revolutionary author for her time. Her two novels and close to one hundred short stories have been read and analyzed for nearly a century. Even today, her novel, The Awakening, is argued to be a modern novel instead of a classic novel because of its themes that still apply to contemporary culture. Chopin’s use of setting, direct and indirect characterization and symbolism illustrate Edna’s journey and struggle to an independence that consumes her. Though Chopin’s settings and characters are all from the past, her themes of women’s self-discovery, liberation, and rebellion engage a wide audience, having been true through the 19th Century and into the 21st. My literary analysis essay probes the counterintuitive effects of the protagonist, Edna Pontellier’s, suicide not only in her own battles that she has fought against society as well as her internal battles, but also in terms of the feminism that this book portrays. I refute the common interpretation that Edna’s suicide in Chopin’s The Awakening is an act of heroism. I examine Edna’s journey of self-realization leading to her “awakening” and ending in suicide, revealing the irony behind Edna’s newfound freedom when she allows herself to be to be taken by the sea. Many critics interpret Edna’s suicide to be noble. It is viewed as her moment of autonomy when she leaves behind everything despicable about the patriarchal society she lives in, trading her oppressive life for eternal liberation, but her suicide is actually a childlike decision brought on by the culmination of the mess she created that she can no longer live with in addition to her emotional dependence on a love and life she cannot have. Edna wins many battles towards the “self-ownership” she so desp.

Provide examples to support your reasoning. ANSWER THE ABOVE QUESTION AND THEN REPLY TO MY CLASSMATE RESPONSE TO THE ABOVE QUESTIONS AND EXPLAIN WHY YOU AGREE? (A MINIMUM OF 200 WORDS or MORE EACH) CLASSMATE’S RESPONSE If you go into the City of Milwaukee, it is a mess with shootings of young children, senseless auto deaths and just things that simply go against my grain. The Mayor has gained the 2020 Democratic Convention for Milwaukee through crazy spending habits for things that won't benefit the City as a whole and has his head in the sand when issues of lead in drinking water laterals, huge uptick of opioid deaths (15 in the city in one day) and homelessness. He claims he is going to have all of that cleaned up by the time the convention comes to town. My fear is he is going to shift the problems to other surrounding communities. There are several activist groups that are constantly pounding on the Mayor's door and for the most part the Mayor spends a great time in parody of the local newspaper as well as online articles. We had a couple police officer involved deaths where one person was cognitively challenged and attacked the police officer that stopped to wake him from sleeping in a public area. Big marches were organized by the dead person's family, which later came to light that the same family through the dead person out of the house because he was too much of a hassle to deal. Then ended up profiting from his death in wrongful death lawsuits. So, there was a great deal of negativity going on and some officials lost their elected seats as well as the police officer lost his job although the court cleared him. There were positives as much as negatives, over the last year we lost 3 police officers and a fire lieutenant due to fatal gunfire from people at the scene. That brought the city together. Since then, Milwaukee has experienced several fatal and non-fatal shooting of young innocent bystander kids. The community has finally grown tired of this and are now cooperating with police in capturing these people. At one time, a shooter could get lost in the city that knows everyone. Those days have gone by. My question always is, why does there have to be several tragedies happen for people to say enough is enough? I grew up in a different era where the establishment was question but authority or others were still respected. Where did that go? .

One assessment of this is https://www.researchgate.net/topic/IT-Infrastructure Infrastructures for future networks, including new Internets, must have the following characteristics: 1) Provide the right abstractions to software layer, in order to enable software-defined design, including management and control. 2) Hardware must be generalized and exposed for better resource exposition and orchestration. 3) Semantics rich resource description to enable proper orchestration at software layer. 4) Real-time support for time sensitive software-based management and control. 5) Flexible hardware to enable hardware implementation changes on the flow, e.g. FPGAs. 6) Identifiers must be decoupled from locators to enable improved traceability, mobility, and multihoming. 7) High level of physical connectivity and redundancy at hardware and software functionalities. 8) Cooperate each other to enable "social emergent" behaviors. Autonomic functionalities for self-management, self-awareness, self-situation, self-organization, self-adapting. In general, to enable self-* and *-awareness. 9) To enable simultaneous virtual entities over every physical resource. 10) Police-driven and context-aware control and management. 11) Contract-based exposition, orchestration, virtualization, life-cycling, etc. 12) Self-similar design to avoid unnecessary overlapping. 13) To explore deep synergies among design ingredients to avoid unnecessary overlapping. 14) Alignment to the digital business ecosystem idea. 15) High reliability, resilience, redundancy, capacity, and efficiency. Review this list and reply in 175 words or more if you can think of other qualities that might be important. .
