Instructions ILOs Understand the general nature, purposes, and techniques of literature with a sense of its relationship to life and culture. Understand the biographical, historical, and cultural contexts of a representative selection of works by major writers. Identify the relationships among the literary works studied and the philosophical, religious, political, social, and economic milieus of the cultures and subcultures within and among which they were written. Engage and respond to literary texts personally and creatively. Think, write, and speak about literary texts critically and effectively. For weeks 3-6 you will be completing a variety of creative or analytical reading engagements. There are nine choices for this assignment. Choose a different one to do for each week; you may not repeat choices. Each week the content for your RE must be drawn from the week's assigned readings: For the week 3 RE: Use the week 3 short stories Choice 1: Collection of Poems Write a collection of poems (three minimum) that demonstrate reflection upon and engagement with the short story or stories. You may write about a setting, about a theme, or from a character's point of view. Each poem must be a minimum of ten lines, and you must complete two drafts. Share the first draft with a friend or family member for review feedback. Please ensure the reader writes or types his or her feedback as you will need to submit proof of your outside review. In your submission, include the first drafts (with commentary for revision) and the final drafts. Make sure that the poems demonstrate strong specific connections with and to the text—they should convince your grader of a critical engagement with the text. Alternately, if you are musical, you can record three short songs. You would submit the lyrics (two drafts, demonstrating revisions) and a video of you (or an appointed performer) performing the songs. Choice 2: Draw a Map Draw a map that captures, in detail, the setting of a text. This could be a house, town, or roadside event. You may need to draw more than one map to capture multiple scenes from a text. Fill in all the details you can identify from the story or poem and add details that you find plausible and that connect to the plot. Write a paragraph that explains how place functions in your story. How is it important? Symbolic? Thematic? You will likely need to be able to scan in your work for this project or submit a photo file. Choice 3: Draw a Collection of Pieces of Art Draw a collection of pieces of art and record a talk that reflects upon how the pieces (a minimum of three) connect to the literature. Make sure that you can locate five or more points of connections in each piece of art. (Some ideas: the black and white images represent the piano Sonny played; the cross that has fallen on the floor represents Grace, the child who has died.) The drawings can be realistic or symbolic. You do not need to be an excellent artist to complete.

Final Project, Part 2. Development of the Topic.
This part of the final project is a summary of your ongoing work on the final paper; it should include three paragraphs, one covering each selected work. You should also make sure to re-state what your subject is.
Identify how the subject you chose in Part 1 appears in three different examples, each from a different Humanities discipline (visual art, music, dance, poetry, prose, theater, film, religion). For instance, you could choose a poem, a painting and a scene from a film, all of which express and represent the theme of anger. Or, to be even more specific, if you choose the emotion of "love," the final paper could analyze and discuss love as it is expressed in Shakespeare's Sonnet 147 (literature), Boticelli's Birth of Venus (visual art), and in the ballet Swan Lake (dance).
Write one short paragraph (3-5 sentences) about
each
of your selections in which you:
Identify a reliable and appropriate example (a good-quality image, recording, video, etc.).
Identify and cite the source, including the artist, creator etc. as well as where you found the example.
Explain why you find the example relevant for this assignment.
Identify one tool, concept or method from the Learning Resources you might be able to use to talk about it.
STOP:
Before you hand in your assignment, make sure to ask yourself the following questions:
Have I chosen three examples from three different fields of the Humanities?
Are each of the examples I chose specific, reliable, appropriate, relevant to my topic?
Have I offered an explanation for each example that offers a reason for including it?
Have I provided a specific and appropriate interpretative tool, concept or method that I will likely use to interpret each example?
Have I provided a list of resources and do all of my citations conform to MLA 8th edition guidelines?
Have I proofread this assignment for grammatical, structural, and spelling errors?
For your final project, you will choose a subject, find three expressions of that subject in three different Humanities disciplines, describe the three different presentations, and offer an analysis of each of your choices.

Short Story Critical Paper Assignment Page count 3-4.docx
Short Story Critical Paper Assignment
Page count
: 3-4 pages
Format:
MLA, double-spaced, 12-point font
Required sources
: The short stories we’ve read to date
Now that we have nearly completed the short fiction unit of this course, it’s time to get to work on your critical papers.
The goal of a “lens analysis” essay or critical paper is
not
to simply compare and contrast two or three works of literature, but to put them in conversation with one another. We aren’t necessarily interested in how two or three particular stories contrast (because
every
story is different in a myriad of ways). We’re interested in looking at the ways the stories and their writers illuminate one another, how elements of craft and author intention are evident across multiple works of literature, and we’re interested in seeing how these elements of craft work to create different effects and create meaning in many works of literature.
Start your paper by formulating a two or three-sentence thesis statement or
argument
. You must then pull no less than
two quotes
from each story or text, passages of the story that serve as evidence to your thesis/argument.
You may choose one of the following essay topics (or another idea altogether) to address in your paper:
Character:
Choose protagonists (main characters) from two or three of the stories we’ve read. What does the protagonist most want? Make an argument. Who or what is in his/her way (antagonist)? Why is this a source of conflict or tension for him/her? What is the crisis? How does the climax or ending give you more insight into the meaning of the character’s desires and the overall theme(s) of the story? How do those desires change throughout the story?
Detail & Description and Imagery:
What sensory details make the world of the characters in these stories come alive? How is description working to affect meaning? What does the imagery add to the sensory in terms of emotional associations it brings to the text? Does the image recur (i.e. “the things they carried”)? If so, how does this repetition work to create meaning or enhance theme? Do you notice any
objective correlatives, metaphors
or examples of
personification
that enhance or affect meaning? Pick two different passages in each story you choose, and discuss how the writer’s choice of details and imagery helps characterize a place or a person, suggesting something that goes unstated (subtext) in the themes.
Subtext:
What goes unsaid in the dialogue and how does the writer give us hints to this subtext? Choose
at least
two passages of description of action or dialogue from two different stories and “read between the lines.” How are character gestures, imagery and/or metaphor working to help you “read between the lines” or uncover the subtext and Hemingway’s
Iceberg Theory.
What do you think is the purpose of subtext? What effect does subtext have on the reader?
Point of View and Voice:
How does the author’s use of sty.

This document provides guidance for writing an essay analyzing a poem using the New Criticism approach. It outlines objectives of learning to write a clear response to literature using rhetorical strategies and critical thinking. Students are prompted to choose one of four poems and write a 500-750 word thesis-driven essay examining how the poem achieves an "organic unity" by resolving tensions between its elements. The document provides steps for close reading, identifying tensions, forming a hypothesis, and showing how all parts contribute to the poem's meaning.

or your third Individual Project, you will be writing an essay of .docx
or your third Individual Project, you will be writing
an essay of 1,000 words or more about two additional poems from the assigned reading list
. Please select two works from the list of fifteen—excluding the one you already reflected on in Part A of the Phase 3 DB assignment—and answer the questions below. Again, be sure to begin your paper with an engaging introduction and clear thesis statement, develop each point in the body of your paper using examples and quotes from the poems, and conclude your paper with a restatement of your thesis and closing remarks. Also, make sure you maintain your credibility by including in-text citations and a reference list correctly formatted in APA style.
Imagery: What visual images can you identify in both poems? Comment on the details you notice about objects, places, people, colors, textures and so forth. Which of your other senses are stimulated by the poets’ descriptions?
Figures of Speech: List the specific metaphors, similes, puns and other figures of speech each poet uses and how they contribute to the poem’s overall meaning. (Remember, figurative language is not literal but rather suggestive of something else. For example, the metaphor, “Jack is a pig,” is not a reference to an actual animal with hooves but rather someone named Jack who has pig-like qualities or mannerisms.)
Symbolism: Identify the symbols you notice in each poem. What abstract concepts (e.g., love, death, truth) might the concrete objects (e.g., persons, places, things) suggest?
Language and Word Choice: Every word in a poem has been included (or left out) after much deliberation, as poets choose their words very carefully. Remark on the following in each poem: Does the poet use informal or formal language? Does he or she write in an older dialect or contemporary English? Provide examples.
Tone: What tone does each poet take (e.g., sad, humorous, sarcastic, loving, etc.) toward his or her subject matter?
Themes: What are the main messages of both poems? Give reasons for your answers.
Sound: Read both poems aloud. What do you notice about their rhythms, rhyme schemes and musicality? How does listening to the sound of a poem differ from merely reading it as words on a page?
Final Thoughts: Poetry can enlighten and/or evoke deep emotion in readers. Express the impact each of the two poems you have analyzed for this assignment had on you. What insights did you gain about life or human nature, and what feelings did each piece stir in you? Has your view of poetry changed in any way since reading and analyzing the Phase 3 poems? Explain your answer
Be able to describe the key elements of form, character, voice, symbolism, language, etc., that enable the writer to deliver a key message
Can articulate the (sometimes various) main meaning or key message in a story or poem as the writer intended it, as well as describe the writer’s unique point of view
Can reflect upon how a piece of literature illuminates or enriches one’ own experience

Overall Instruction· For any of these topic choices, you must q.docx
Overall Instruction:
· For any of these topic choices, you must quote directly from your chosen works and include page numbers in a parenthetical citation after quotes. Instructions for in-text, parenthetical citations are attached (see pages 3-5 of this handout).
· Choose quoted passages that function as strong evidence and help you communicate your main message about the works of literature you are analyzing. Once you quote a passage, be sure to USE it: that is, interpret what it’s saying and tie it back to your main point about the text. Through your interpretation (analysis) of each and every quote, you should advance your paper’s main argument (thesis).
· Avoid summary! In none of these assignment choices do I ask you to summarize or retell the storyline. Assume your audience has read the pieces that you’re writing about. Instead of summary, I want your creative-analytical response to the literature.
Topics:
1. Put any character in conversation with a character from another work by a different author. Createthe dialogue they might have. Note that your dialogue should capture an important aspect of each character and should be focused on one main theme. You might, for example, have two characters discuss their views about their adversaries or lovers, their plans for dealing with a similar problem they have (e.g. unfaithful spouses or low social status), their different encounters with the underworld, and so on. Write a dialogue (of any length) between the two characters and attach it to an essay of 4-5 pages explaining the reasons you chose to write this particular dialogue and the message you wanted to get across about the role these characters play in their respective works and the burdens or successes they represent. Keep in mind that you don’t have to choose a work’s main characters; it would be very interesting to choose minor characters who play a smaller but critical role in the text. The best essays will illuminate a surprising intersection between the character and texts, as well as an important message about both your characters and the works they represent. Be sure to quote from the original texts in your dialogue and accompanying essay. An alternate approach to this essay choice would be to put two different authors from our syllabus into dialogue with each other.
2. Imagine that you’re planning a film based on a pairing or group of works from the syllabus. Write a description of your film, making sure to answer the questions: why make a film on your chosen works? What message, drawn from the original texts, are you trying to get across, and why do you think it’s important for a contemporary audience to hear this message? Also, think about the stylistic decisions that a film director makes and explain how you would like to see your film made, and why. (Is it a big- budget action film, a romance with recognizable stars, a musical, a comedy, or a “quieter” family drama?) Write an essay of 6-8 pages in which you discuss the .

For a literature review, you should create a research outline that begins with the following:
Topic introduction
Major questions and/or debates about the topic
Major commentary (Authors or major articles on the topic you know about)
Areas for further inquiry
Remember that outlines are dynamic. I expect them to change over time as you conduct your farm research and narrow your thesis.
you will be graded on:
Displays solid research including credible traditional and electronic sources. Provides in-depth study and understanding of those sources and their themes through history, civilization(s) and culture(s).
Your work thoroughly analyzes a very narrow topic related to farm with an explication connecting it to specific examples of literature in the humanities (written, art, film, textiles, folklore practices and material culture) that focuses on agriculture. Develops complex ideas that go beyond surface reading.
Assignment connects your own thoughts about farm literature with at least two specific required readings from the course by comparing, contrasting, and analyzing texts with primary and secondary sources you discovered, demonstrating understanding and awareness (cultural literacy) of American society through the lens of agriculture.
Paper articulates your thoughts and knowledge through a solid thesis with supporting topic sentences in paragraphs that are well-developed, use proper grammar, and employ terms common in the agricultural disciplines.
Visual Imagery. Illustrate a point in your work that may not be adequately portrayed by words. Caption included and source cited.

This short, informal literary analysis paper assignment invites students to explore a broad theme or reflection topic from 1 or 2 of the literary texts that we have studied together in depth in our course. Students will select one of the optional paper topics to write about. Each paper topic focuses on a particular theme or issue in a literary work(s).
Students will take a very focused and simple approach to writing about this broad thematic topic. You will select only 1 or 2 short passages or excerpts that you believe relate to the broader topic question. For the majority of this informal, short paper, your writing will demonstrate the “close reading” skills you have gained this semester by explaining how you analyze these passages. Students should also clearly explain a few simple connections you have identified between your “close reading” observations of the shorter passages and the broader paper topic.
The purpose and structure of this short informal literary analysis paper most closely resembles that of the “Response Paper” genre of student writing:
A response paper is a great opportunity to practice your close reading skills without having to develop an entire argument. In most cases, a solid approach is to select a rich passage that rewards analysis (for example, one that depicts an important scene or a recurring image) and close read it. While response papers are a flexible genre, they are not invitations for impressionistic accounts of whether you liked the work or a particular character. Instead, you might use your close reading to raise a question about the text—to open up further investigation, rather than to supply a solution

Exploration of one or more characteristic(s) of an authors style an.docx
Exploration of one or more characteristic(s) of an author's style and approach
Consider analyzing the author's use of imagery or setting:
Analyzing Setting
“Setting refers to the natural or artificial scenery or environment in which characters in literature live and move. Seeing also includes what in the theater would be called props or properties—the implements employed by the characters in various activities. Such things as the time of day and the consequent amount of light at which an event occurs, the flora and fauna, the sounds described, the smells, and the weather are also part of the setting. Paintbrushes, apples, pitchforks, rafts, six-shooters, watches, automobiles, horses and buggies, and innumerable other items belong to the setting. References to clothing, descriptions of physical appearance, and spatial relationships among the characters are also part of setting.” (Edgar V. Roberts, Writing Themes about Literature)
In order to create an argument about the function of the setting in a particular work, you need to identify the principal settings and to see how they work. Here are some steps you can take:
1) Read the story and mark references to setting. Start with the place and time of the action and then focus upon recurrent details and objects.
2) Think about what the story is about. What happens? What is its point? Is it a story about love, jealousy, gain, or loss? What is the main experience here?
3) Look through your setting notes and see if they fall into any pattern. What are the interesting shifts and contrasts?
4) Determine how the setting relates to either the main point of the story (step 2) or to some part of it. In other words what does the setting have to do with character or action? What are its effects? Whatever you decide here will be your thesis statement.
5) Make an outline, indicating what aspects of setting you will discuss and what you intend to say about them. Discard notes that are not central to your plan (you don’t have to discuss everything). Focus on the four or five key passages in the story that you wish to examine. List them in your outline in the order in which they occur.
Analyzing Imagery
As distinct from character, theme, and plot, imagery occurs primarily in language, in the metaphors (i.e. comparisons), similes (comparisons with “like” or “as”), or other forms of figurative (pictorial) language in a literary work. Sometimes setting, i.e., the locality or placing of scenes, or stage props (like swords, flowers, blood, winecups) can also be considered under the rubric of imagery. But whatever the expression, images primarily are visual and concrete, i.e., things which the reader sees or can imagine seeing. Some examples are flowers, tears, animals, the moon, sun, stars, diseases, floods, metals, darkness and light.
In order to create an argument about the significance of an image in a particular work, identify a principal image or image cluster and to see how it works by following the.

American Protest Literature - Literary Analysis Argument Essay .docx
American Protest Literature - Literary Analysis Argument Essay
Assignment Description
Whether it looks backward in order to move America forward, builds connections across movements, demands empathy from readers, transforms its creators, crafts a politics of form, appropriates the master’s tools, or makes words into weapons, American protest literature tries to remake “a world beautiful,” as London puts it. The protest cycle beats on, boats against the current.
– Zoe Trodd xxviii
Trodd’s anthology American Protest Literature sets a variety of texts and protest art forms in conversation with each other. She describes these as falling into several “politics” for change. These are:
· The Politics of Connection
· The Politics of Form
· The Politics of Appropriation
· The Politics of Memory
For this project, you will write a four-to-five-page essay that analyzes and interprets four works and finds a unifying theme among them. You may use writings from the textbook itself (whether they were among the selected course readings or not) or you may explore other outside texts provided they are published sources that were written or created as a part of the social movements studied in the course. You will need at least five total sources of outside research for your essay documented in your Works Cited page.
You may do this assignment one of two ways:
1. You may choose a social movement and describe how each of the four works you select contributes to the movement using the “politics” Zoe Trodd explains in her introduction to the text. How does each depict aspects of the movement and what strategies, tactics, or techniques does it use to influence the movement for change? Analyze and interpret each work using key quotes, paraphrases, and summaries as you compare it to the other works and how each contributes to the literature of protest within that movement.
2. Choose at least four pieces of protest literature from the entire range of movements in the course, or you may introduce texts you have researched that also contributed to these historical social movements. Find a unifying “politic” or strategy (for example: politics of memory or form) for all of them and discuss how that strategy or tactic uniquely contributed to the individual movements for which they were created. How does their unifying technique contribute to the body of protest literature that brought social change? Analyze and interpret each work using key quotes, paraphrases, and summaries as you compare it to the other works and how each contributes to the literature of protest within that movement.
Your work is to interpret the works to find unifying themes or tactics among them and then argue for their unique contribution to their related social movement. Do not focus too much on summarizing; instead, interpret and explain to your reader how the strategies are expressed in the work and how the works intersect with one another. Bring Trodd’s “politics” to the surface through.

1. Essay-writing Essay The word Essay is defined in The Concise O.docx
1. Essay-writing Essay The word Essay is defined in "The Concise Oxford Dictionary" as "a literary composition (usually prose and short) on any subject.“ It is a written composition giving expression to one's own personal ideas or opinions on some topic; but the term usually covers also any written composition, whether it expresses personal opinions, or gives information on any given subject, or details of a narrative or description.
2. Characteristics of Essay-writing A good essay must contain the following characteristics: Unity Order Brevity Style Personal Touch An essay must be a unity, treating in an orderly manner of one subject; it should be concisely written and not too long, and the style should by simple, direct and clear; and it should have an individuality, or show the personal touch of the writer.
3. Classification of Essay-Writing Essays may be classified as: Narrative Descriptive Expository Reflective Imaginative
4. Classification of Essay- Writing(cont’d) Narrative: In a narrative essay, the writer tells a story about a real-life experience. While telling a story may sound easy to do, the narrative essay challenges students to think and write about themselves. When writing a narrative essay, writers should try to involve the reader by making the story as vivid as possible. Descriptive: A descriptive essay paints a picture with words. A writer might describe a person, place, object, or even memory of special significance. The descriptive essay strives to communicate a deeper meaning through the description. In a descriptive essay, the writer should show through the use of colorful words and sensory details.
5. Classification of Essay- Writing(cont’d) Expository: In an expository essay, the writer explains or defines a topic, using facts, statistics, and examples. Expository writing encompasses a wide range of essay variations, such as the comparison and contrast essay, the cause and effect essay, and the “how to” or process essay. Reflective: A reflective essay consists of reflections or thoughts on some topic, which is generally of an abstract nature; for example; (a) habits, qualities, (b) social, political and domestic topics (c) philosophical subjects, (d) religious and theological topics.
6. Classification of Essay- Writing(cont’d) Imaginative :Essays on subjects such as the feelings and experiences of the sailor wrecked on a desert island may be called imaginative Essays. In such the writer is called to place himself in imagination in a position of which he has had no actual experience. Such subjects as "If I were a king," or "The autobiography of a horse," would call for imaginative essays.

Short Story Critical Paper Assignment
Page count
: 3-4 pages
Format:
MLA, double-spaced, 12-point font
Required sources
: The short stories we’ve read to date
Now that we have nearly completed the short fiction unit of this course, it’s time to get to work on your critical papers.
The goal of a “lens analysis” essay or critical paper is
not
to simply compare and contrast two or three works of literature, but to put them in conversation with one another. We aren’t necessarily interested in how two or three particular stories contrast (because
every
story is different in a myriad of ways). We’re interested in looking at the ways the stories and their writers illuminate one another, how elements of craft and author intention are evident across multiple works of literature, and we’re interested in seeing how these elements of craft work to create different effects and create meaning in many works of literature.
Start your paper by formulating a two or three-sentence thesis statement or
argument
. You must then pull no less than
two quotes
from each story or text, passages of the story that serve as evidence to your thesis/argument.
You may choose one of the following essay topics (or another idea altogether) to address in your paper:
Character:
Choose protagonists (main characters) from two or three of the stories we’ve read. What does the protagonist most want? Make an argument. Who or what is in his/her way (antagonist)? Why is this a source of conflict or tension for him/her? What is the crisis? How does the climax or ending give you more insight into the meaning of the character’s desires and the overall theme(s) of the story? How do those desires change throughout the story?
Detail & Description and Imagery:
What sensory details make the world of the characters in these stories come alive? How is description working to affect meaning? What does the imagery add to the sensory in terms of emotional associations it brings to the text? Does the image recur (i.e. “the things they carried”)? If so, how does this repetition work to create meaning or enhance theme? Do you notice any
objective correlatives, metaphors
or examples of
personification
that enhance or affect meaning? Pick two different passages in each story you choose, and discuss how the writer’s choice of details and imagery helps characterize a place or a person, suggesting something that goes unstated (subtext) in the themes.
Subtext:
What goes unsaid in the dialogue and how does the writer give us hints to this subtext? Choose
at least
two passages of description of action or dialogue from two different stories and “read between the lines.” How are character gestures, imagery and/or metaphor working to help you “read between the lines” or uncover the subtext and Hemingway’s
Iceberg Theory.
What do you think is the purpose of subtext? What effect does subtext have on the reader?
Point of View and Voice:
How does the author’s use of sty.

an essay of 1,000 words or more about two additional poems from the assigned reading list
. Please select two works from the list of fifteen—excluding the one you already reflected on in Part A of the Phase 3 DB assignment—and answer the questions below. Again, be sure to begin your paper with an engaging introduction and clear thesis statement, develop each point in the body of your paper using examples and quotes from the poems, and conclude your paper with a restatement of your thesis and closing remarks. Also, make sure you maintain your credibility by including in-text citations and a reference list correctly formatted in APA style.
Imagery: What visual images can you identify in both poems? Comment on the details you notice about objects, places, people, colors, textures and so forth. Which of your other senses are stimulated by the poets’ descriptions?
Figures of Speech: List the specific metaphors, similes, puns and other figures of speech each poet uses and how they contribute to the poem’s overall meaning. (Remember, figurative language is not literal but rather suggestive of something else. For example, the metaphor, “Jack is a pig,” is not a reference to an actual animal with hooves but rather someone named Jack who has pig-like qualities or mannerisms.)
Symbolism: Identify the symbols you notice in each poem. What abstract concepts (e.g., love, death, truth) might the concrete objects (e.g., persons, places, things) suggest?
Language and Word Choice: Every word in a poem has been included (or left out) after much deliberation, as poets choose their words very carefully. Remark on the following in each poem: Does the poet use informal or formal language? Does he or she write in an older dialect or contemporary English? Provide examples.
Tone: What tone does each poet take (e.g., sad, humorous, sarcastic, loving, etc.) toward his or her subject matter?
Themes: What are the main messages of both poems? Give reasons for your answers.
Sound: Read both poems aloud. What do you notice about their rhythms, rhyme schemes and musicality? How does listening to the sound of a poem differ from merely reading it as words on a page?
Final Thoughts: Poetry can enlighten and/or evoke deep emotion in readers. Express the impact each of the two poems you have analyzed for this assignment had on you. What insights did you gain about life or human nature, and what feelings did each piece stir in you? Has your view of poetry changed in any way since reading and analyzing the Phase 3 poems? Explain your answer
Be able to describe the key elements of form, character, voice, symbolism, language, etc., that enable the writer to deliver a key message
Can articulate the (sometimes various) main meaning or key message in a story or poem as the writer intended it, as well as describe the writer’s unique point of view
Can reflect upon how a piece of literature illuminates or enriches one’ own experience

Overall Instruction· For any of these topic choices, you must q.docx
Overall Instruction:
· For any of these topic choices, you must quote directly from your chosen works and include page numbers in a parenthetical citation after quotes. Instructions for in-text, parenthetical citations are attached (see pages 3-5 of this handout).
· Choose quoted passages that function as strong evidence and help you communicate your main message about the works of literature you are analyzing. Once you quote a passage, be sure to USE it: that is, interpret what it’s saying and tie it back to your main point about the text. Through your interpretation (analysis) of each and every quote, you should advance your paper’s main argument (thesis).
· Avoid summary! In none of these assignment choices do I ask you to summarize or retell the storyline. Assume your audience has read the pieces that you’re writing about. Instead of summary, I want your creative-analytical response to the literature.
Topics:
1. Put any character in conversation with a character from another work by a different author. Createthe dialogue they might have. Note that your dialogue should capture an important aspect of each character and should be focused on one main theme. You might, for example, have two characters discuss their views about their adversaries or lovers, their plans for dealing with a similar problem they have (e.g. unfaithful spouses or low social status), their different encounters with the underworld, and so on. Write a dialogue (of any length) between the two characters and attach it to an essay of 4-5 pages explaining the reasons you chose to write this particular dialogue and the message you wanted to get across about the role these characters play in their respective works and the burdens or successes they represent. Keep in mind that you don’t have to choose a work’s main characters; it would be very interesting to choose minor characters who play a smaller but critical role in the text. The best essays will illuminate a surprising intersection between the character and texts, as well as an important message about both your characters and the works they represent. Be sure to quote from the original texts in your dialogue and accompanying essay. An alternate approach to this essay choice would be to put two different authors from our syllabus into dialogue with each other.
2. Imagine that you’re planning a film based on a pairing or group of works from the syllabus. Write a description of your film, making sure to answer the questions: why make a film on your chosen works? What message, drawn from the original texts, are you trying to get across, and why do you think it’s important for a contemporary audience to hear this message? Also, think about the stylistic decisions that a film director makes and explain how you would like to see your film made, and why. (Is it a big- budget action film, a romance with recognizable stars, a musical, a comedy, or a “quieter” family drama?) Write an essay of 6-8 pages in which you discuss the .

CREATIVE RESEARCH PROJECT and SHORT LITERARY ANALYSIS PAPER
Although these 2 assignments are informal, they comprise a significant portion of the course grade. The Short Literary Analysis Paper (20%) and the Creative Research Project (20%)both ask students to apply and demonstrate the literary analysis and critical thinking skills that you have honed throughout the semester.
CULF 1318 Learning Objectives:
My Literature and the Human Experience course has been designed to:
1. introduce you to the terms and principles of literary study,
2. get you thinking about issues of diversity and cultural difference, and
3. help you develop skills of critical thinking, reading, and textual analysis.
By now, you’ve gained skills and practice in literary analysis and rigorous group discussion. You are certainly equipped to become thoughtful readers for life, should you so choose!
SHORT, INFORMAL LITERARY ANALYSIS PAPER
This short, informal literary analysis paper assignment invites students to explore a broad theme or reflection topic from 1 or 2 of the literary texts that we have studied together in depth in our course. Students will select one of the optional paper topics to write about. Each paper topic focuses on a particular theme or issue in a literary work(s).
Students will take a very focused and simple approach to writing about this broad thematic topic. You will select only 1 or 2 short passages or excerpts that you believe relate to the broader topic question. For the majority of this informal, short paper, your writing will demonstrate the “close reading” skills you have gained this semester by explaining how you analyze these passages. Students should also clearly explain a few simple connections you have identified between your “close reading” observations of the shorter passages and the broader paper topic.
The purpose and structure of this short informal literary analysis paper most closely resembles that of the “Response Paper” genre of student writing:
A response paper is a great opportunity to practice your close reading skills without having to develop an entire argument. In most cases, a solid approach is to select a rich passage that rewards analysis (for example, one that depicts an important scene or a recurring image) and close read it. While response papers are a flexible genre, they are not invitations for impressionistic accounts of whether you liked the work or a particular character. Instead, you might use your close reading to raise a question about the text—to open up further investigation, rather than to supply a solution
From Harvard College Writing Center Brief Guide Series “A Brief Guide to Writing the English Paper”

Choose one (1) of the topics from the list of topic choices below. Read the topic carefully. Write a three to four (3-4) page paper (750-1,000 words) that responds to each of the items described in the topic.
For the topic you choose:
Support your ideas with specific, illustrative examples. If there are questions or points associated with your chosen topic, be sure to answer all of the listed questions and address all of the items in that topic. If your topic asks you to do several things related to the topic, be sure to do each of the things listed.
The listed topics each have a certain writing genre with it (written speech, memo, poem with essay, scripted dialogue, etc). From this you can see that there is a fun, creative writing aspect to this assignment. In most cases students should stick with the genre as listed. However, your instructor might suggest some alternative genre on one of the topics. As a student, you also can propose to your instructor some alternative genre for the topic you choose—something different from what is listed. Since not all such proposals can work, be aware that your proposal will get consideration, but may or may not be approved. Also, if you make such a proposal, please do so before the end of Week 5.
Use at least three (3) good quality academic sources, with one (1) source being the class text.

Exploration of one or more characteristic(s) of an authors style an.docx
Exploration of one or more characteristic(s) of an author's style and approach
Consider analyzing the author's use of imagery or setting:
Analyzing Setting
“Setting refers to the natural or artificial scenery or environment in which characters in literature live and move. Seeing also includes what in the theater would be called props or properties—the implements employed by the characters in various activities. Such things as the time of day and the consequent amount of light at which an event occurs, the flora and fauna, the sounds described, the smells, and the weather are also part of the setting. Paintbrushes, apples, pitchforks, rafts, six-shooters, watches, automobiles, horses and buggies, and innumerable other items belong to the setting. References to clothing, descriptions of physical appearance, and spatial relationships among the characters are also part of setting.” (Edgar V. Roberts, Writing Themes about Literature)
In order to create an argument about the function of the setting in a particular work, you need to identify the principal settings and to see how they work. Here are some steps you can take:
1) Read the story and mark references to setting. Start with the place and time of the action and then focus upon recurrent details and objects.
2) Think about what the story is about. What happens? What is its point? Is it a story about love, jealousy, gain, or loss? What is the main experience here?
3) Look through your setting notes and see if they fall into any pattern. What are the interesting shifts and contrasts?
4) Determine how the setting relates to either the main point of the story (step 2) or to some part of it. In other words what does the setting have to do with character or action? What are its effects? Whatever you decide here will be your thesis statement.
5) Make an outline, indicating what aspects of setting you will discuss and what you intend to say about them. Discard notes that are not central to your plan (you don’t have to discuss everything). Focus on the four or five key passages in the story that you wish to examine. List them in your outline in the order in which they occur.
Analyzing Imagery
As distinct from character, theme, and plot, imagery occurs primarily in language, in the metaphors (i.e. comparisons), similes (comparisons with “like” or “as”), or other forms of figurative (pictorial) language in a literary work. Sometimes setting, i.e., the locality or placing of scenes, or stage props (like swords, flowers, blood, winecups) can also be considered under the rubric of imagery. But whatever the expression, images primarily are visual and concrete, i.e., things which the reader sees or can imagine seeing. Some examples are flowers, tears, animals, the moon, sun, stars, diseases, floods, metals, darkness and light.
In order to create an argument about the significance of an image in a particular work, identify a principal image or image cluster and to see how it works by following the.

American Protest Literature - Literary Analysis Argument Essay .docx
American Protest Literature - Literary Analysis Argument Essay
Assignment Description
Whether it looks backward in order to move America forward, builds connections across movements, demands empathy from readers, transforms its creators, crafts a politics of form, appropriates the master’s tools, or makes words into weapons, American protest literature tries to remake “a world beautiful,” as London puts it. The protest cycle beats on, boats against the current.
– Zoe Trodd xxviii
Trodd’s anthology American Protest Literature sets a variety of texts and protest art forms in conversation with each other. She describes these as falling into several “politics” for change. These are:
· The Politics of Connection
· The Politics of Form
· The Politics of Appropriation
· The Politics of Memory
For this project, you will write a four-to-five-page essay that analyzes and interprets four works and finds a unifying theme among them. You may use writings from the textbook itself (whether they were among the selected course readings or not) or you may explore other outside texts provided they are published sources that were written or created as a part of the social movements studied in the course. You will need at least five total sources of outside research for your essay documented in your Works Cited page.
You may do this assignment one of two ways:
1. You may choose a social movement and describe how each of the four works you select contributes to the movement using the “politics” Zoe Trodd explains in her introduction to the text. How does each depict aspects of the movement and what strategies, tactics, or techniques does it use to influence the movement for change? Analyze and interpret each work using key quotes, paraphrases, and summaries as you compare it to the other works and how each contributes to the literature of protest within that movement.
2. Choose at least four pieces of protest literature from the entire range of movements in the course, or you may introduce texts you have researched that also contributed to these historical social movements. Find a unifying “politic” or strategy (for example: politics of memory or form) for all of them and discuss how that strategy or tactic uniquely contributed to the individual movements for which they were created. How does their unifying technique contribute to the body of protest literature that brought social change? Analyze and interpret each work using key quotes, paraphrases, and summaries as you compare it to the other works and how each contributes to the literature of protest within that movement.
Your work is to interpret the works to find unifying themes or tactics among them and then argue for their unique contribution to their related social movement. Do not focus too much on summarizing; instead, interpret and explain to your reader how the strategies are expressed in the work and how the works intersect with one another. Bring Trodd’s “politics” to the surface through.

1. Essay-writing Essay The word Essay is defined in The Concise O.docx
1. Essay-writing Essay The word Essay is defined in "The Concise Oxford Dictionary" as "a literary composition (usually prose and short) on any subject.“ It is a written composition giving expression to one's own personal ideas or opinions on some topic; but the term usually covers also any written composition, whether it expresses personal opinions, or gives information on any given subject, or details of a narrative or description.
2. Characteristics of Essay-writing A good essay must contain the following characteristics: Unity Order Brevity Style Personal Touch An essay must be a unity, treating in an orderly manner of one subject; it should be concisely written and not too long, and the style should by simple, direct and clear; and it should have an individuality, or show the personal touch of the writer.
3. Classification of Essay-Writing Essays may be classified as: Narrative Descriptive Expository Reflective Imaginative
4. Classification of Essay- Writing(cont’d) Narrative: In a narrative essay, the writer tells a story about a real-life experience. While telling a story may sound easy to do, the narrative essay challenges students to think and write about themselves. When writing a narrative essay, writers should try to involve the reader by making the story as vivid as possible. Descriptive: A descriptive essay paints a picture with words. A writer might describe a person, place, object, or even memory of special significance. The descriptive essay strives to communicate a deeper meaning through the description. In a descriptive essay, the writer should show through the use of colorful words and sensory details.
5. Classification of Essay- Writing(cont’d) Expository: In an expository essay, the writer explains or defines a topic, using facts, statistics, and examples. Expository writing encompasses a wide range of essay variations, such as the comparison and contrast essay, the cause and effect essay, and the “how to” or process essay. Reflective: A reflective essay consists of reflections or thoughts on some topic, which is generally of an abstract nature; for example; (a) habits, qualities, (b) social, political and domestic topics (c) philosophical subjects, (d) religious and theological topics.
6. Classification of Essay- Writing(cont’d) Imaginative :Essays on subjects such as the feelings and experiences of the sailor wrecked on a desert island may be called imaginative Essays. In such the writer is called to place himself in imagination in a position of which he has had no actual experience. Such subjects as "If I were a king," or "The autobiography of a horse," would call for imaginative essays.

InstructionsThe Public Archaeology Presentation invites you.docx
Instructions
The Public Archaeology Presentation invites you to evaluate the public archaeology outreach of a site such as an archaeological excavation that is open to the public, an outdoor museum that is hosting or has hosted archaeological excavations, a museum with archaeological collections, etc.* Using the insight you have gained in this course about important topics in archaeology such as archaeological method and theory, subsistence, cultural patterns in prehistory, and environmental interaction, evaluate the ways in which, at the site you have chosen, the knowledge gained from archaeological excavations is being used, or is not being used, to highlight and address issues in the local, regional, or global communities. For example, current issues often addressed in public archaeology include historic preservation, economic growth, environmental degradation, looting, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) education, volunteer opportunities, and more. You will present your findings to your classmates in the Week 8 Public Archaeology discussion in the form of a multimedia presentation.
Any of the sites listed above are ideal for this project. If you are considering a site and are unsure whether it would be suitable for the Public Archaeology Presentation, discuss the site with your instructor. If you are having trouble locating archaeological excavations or museums in your area, check with your local Chamber of Commerce or Tourism Bureau or the Anthropology department/professor at the nearest college or university. Some small sites have limited funding and are not able to advertise extensively.
Guidelines
Your assignment will take the form of a multimedia presentation, such as a YouTube video, blog, PowerPoint presentation, etc. Ideally, your presentation will include audio, but if this is not possible, your presentation must include sufficient text to explain your findings and conclusions.
By Wednesday of Week 8, you will submit a short introduction and a link to your presentation in a designated discussion area AND in the Assignments Folder (this allows me to provide you with private feedback and a grade). Your presentation must be shared online, but you may choose how to do so. There are many free tools out there. Check out the following website for some ideas:
http://blog.crazyegg.com/2013/05/28/online-presentation-tools/
.
Speak and/or write professionally using standard English. If speaking, pay attention to correct grammar and enunciation. If writing, check your spelling and grammar carefully. Poor grammar, spelling, and/or enunciation may affect your grade.
Your presentation must include a written References section in proper citation format detailing the sources you used.
Initial Research
Once you have chosen a site and your instructor has approved it, conduct research using the UMUC Library databases, the internet, and other sources (nearby public librarie.

InstructionsILOsUnderstand the general nature, purposes, a.docx
- 1. Instructions ILOs Understand the general nature, purposes, and techniques of literature with a sense of its relationship to life and culture. Understand the biographical, historical, and cultural contexts of a representative selection of works by major writers. Identify the relationships among the literary works studied and the philosophical, religious, political, social, and economic milieus of the cultures and subcultures within and among which they were written. Engage and respond to literary texts personally and creatively. Think, write, and speak about literary texts critically and effectively. For weeks 3-6 you will be completing a variety of creative or analytical reading engagements. There are nine choices for this assignment. Choose a different one to do for each week; you may not repeat choices. Each week the content for your RE must be drawn from the week's assigned readings: For the week 3 RE: Use the week 3 short stories
- 2. Choice 1: Collection of Poems Write a collection of poems (three minimum) that demonstrate reflection upon and engagement with the short story or stories. You may write about a setting, about a theme, or from a character's point of view. Each poem must be a minimum of ten lines, and you must complete two drafts. Share the first draft with a friend or family member for review feedback. Please ensure the reader writes or types his or her feedback as you will need to submit proof of your outside review. In your submission, include the first drafts (with commentary for revision) and the final drafts. Make sure that the poems demonstrate strong specific connections with and to the text— they should convince your grader of a critical engagement with the text. Alternately, if you are musical, you can record three short songs. You would submit the lyrics (two drafts, demonstrating revisions) and a video of you (or an appointed performer) performing the songs. Choice 2: Draw a Map Draw a map that captures, in detail, the setting of a text. This could be a house, town, or roadside event. You may need to draw more than one map to capture multiple scenes from a text. Fill in all the details you can identify from the story or poem and add details that you find plausible and that connect to the plot. Write a paragraph that explains how place functions in your story. How is it important? Symbolic? Thematic? You will likely need to be able to scan in your work for this project or submit a photo file. Choice 3: Draw a Collection of Pieces of Art Draw a collection of pieces of art and record a talk that reflects upon how the pieces (a minimum of three) connect to the literature. Make sure that you can locate five or more points of
- 3. connections in each piece of art. (Some ideas: the black and white images represent the piano Sonny played; the cross that has fallen on the floor represents Grace, the child who has died.) The drawings can be realistic or symbolic. You do not need to be an excellent artist to complete this assignment, but you do need to be thoughtful and neat. To submit this assignment, video yourself presenting the pictures and discussing each one. This could be done on a cell phone, or you could create a PowerPoint. Share with your audience how your pictures reflect upon and engage with the literary texts. The talk should be two to five minutes. You can submit the video to your own YouTube channel and submit the link for the assignment or simply submit the video file. YouTube Upload Instructions YouTube Privacy Setting Instructions Choice 4: Short Biographical Talk Research and deliver a short biographical talk on how an author's life informs your understanding or appreciation of the text. Consult two-three sources. Connect specific events from the author's life to specifics in a text. Consider discussing style, themes, and content. For this assignment, you will need to record your speech. You may do so on a cell phone or other recording device and then upload your file to the assignment. Include a reference page, formatted in APA or Turabian, for your sources either as the last screen of your video or as a separate file. Use a minimum of two sources. You can submit the video to your own YouTube channel and
- 4. submit the link for the assignment or simply submit the video file. YouTube Upload Instructions YouTube Privacy Setting Instructions Choice 5: Write a Scene Write a scene that fills in the background knowledge of a character or that adds a new scene to the story or poem (two pages). The scene must seek to employ the style of the author and connect to elements of plot from the story. It can come before the story, in the story's middle, or after the story. After your scene, include a well-developed paragraph-length analysis that explains what elements of the author's style you aimed to emulate and why you chose to write the specific "fill-in" scene. Choice 6: Analyze a Story Plot Consider the Freytag plot model and narratology. Analyze how one story moves through the elements of plot. How does it adhere to or deviate from the model? How does it order and control the elements of plot to create suspense and interest? Does it employ foreshadowing or flashback? How do these fit into the Freytag order of plot elements? Write a two- to three-page analysis of how one or two texts employ the elements of plot. Include a works cited page if you use research in your paper. Choice 7: Turn Figurative Language Expressions into Art Turn five or six figurative language expressions into art (note
- 5. that weeks 5 and 6 feature poetry readings). Find five or six examples of figurative language in a text or collection of texts. Give concrete expression to these examples by expressing them through art. Your art can be sculpture, collage, painting, drawing, or graphic art. Include the quoted figurative language with each piece. To submit this assignment, you can create a PowerPoint (or other presentation format) of your art, accompanied by your recorded commentary on the art and figurative language. Alternately, you can scan pictures or photograph your art and include a written commentary on each piece. Please prepare work to be submitted as one document. Choice 8: Literary Analysis This choice is a shortened version of what you practiced in weeks 1-4 and is a good option for those who enjoy writing and who write well. Write a focused two-page, double-spaced literary analysis on a key element or theme in a single text. Be sure to refer to the text to support your discussion. Quote key words and phrases so you can discuss the author's language, and refer to specific events so you can discuss plot. Seek to present a sophisticated exploration of your topic. Submit your two-page analysis. Choice 9: Historic and Cultural Contextualization through an Annotated Bibliography Write a four-source annotated bibliography, reviewing intelligent sources that allow you to historically and culturally contextualize one of the week’s texts (For example, in week 3, you work with a text read in week 3 to complete the RE. In week 4, you use a text you read in week 4, and so on). Each of the sources you review should help you to situate your text in terms of its culture and history. Your sources can be primary and secondary. Consider the following
- 6. research points for your four sources: time period, writing style or school, dress, geography, author, objects or artifacts mentioned in the text, and culture. The annotation (summary) of each source should include a summary of the source and a 2-3 sentence statement explaining how this information enriches your understanding of the text. This assignment is predicated upon the premise that you wrote an annotated bibliography in English Composition II. If you did not write an annotated bibliography, please see the OWL at Purdue for models. An annotated bibliography should be half a page and follow APA or Turabian conventions. This is a good option for someone who likes to read about literature and who can follow APA or Turabian standards. readings, PLEASE SOURCE: https://www.gutenberg.org/files/1952/1952-h/1952-h.htm https://www.angelfire.com/psy/amurderofscarecrows/thelivesoft hedead.html https://rhinehartadvancedenglish.weebly.com/uploads/2/2/1/0/22 108252/the-complete-persepolis-by.pdf https://genius.com/Toni-morrison-recitatif- annotated?referent_id=8975700#note-8975700 https://www.austincc.edu/andreac/imagery https://literarydevices.net/characterization/
