Essay 1 – World Literature
Directions: Reflect on the readings, and choose one (1) of the
prompts below. Full credit will be given
only to those papers that follow the prescribed essay format and
that cite relevant textual evidence.
Additionally, proofread the essay before submitting it, and
comply with other general guidelines on the
Blackboard page:
1. Examine the role of women in early East Asian literature.
Compare and/or contrast key social
customs and perceptions with those that appear in the
Enlightenment period texts you have
read.
2. Argue for or against the similarities between the
contemporary #MeToo climate and the socio-
political contexts for any of the writers we have read.
3. Reflect on the significance mid-1700s authors attributed to
rationality, and write a satirical
treatise to your peer group, advocating that they either should or
should not adopt
Enlightenment principles. (Remember that satire is an
exaggerated comedic convention, so your
intention will be obvious in blatant contradictions.
Additionally, you must still adhere to the
essay format and cite textual evidence.)
4. Write a letter to President Trump either congratulating or
lambasting him for the ways his key
political positions/practices do or do not echo core early
Enlightenment principles.
