MIDTERM ESSAY EXAM ENGLISH 2328 DAIGLE PLEASE ATTACH YOUR ESSAY TO THE ASSIGNMENT FILE ON THE HOME PAGE. PLEASE ATTACH AS A WORD FILE (OR .RTF). General Instructions:Write an essay of at least 750 words (including quotations from the poems and short stories that you use as support) on ONE of the numbered topics below. If you use sources in your response (even those I have provided for you), be sure to cite them, using MLA format. Quotations from the textbook require only a page number. You should choose different poems or short stories than those you used in your reading responses for Volume D. The three examples should be by different authors. All stories and poems must come from Volume D of the textbook. To prepare for the midterm, you will need to read the introduction to Volume D, "American Literature Between the Wars: 1914-1945," especially the following sections: "American Versions of Modernism" (D: 13-16) and "Modernism Abroad and On Native Grounds" (D: 16-18). The midterm will require you to apply ideas from the introduction to specific short stories (fiction) or poems written during this time period (1914-1945). You may choose short stories or poems by the writers that I assigned for the reading responses, as long as you choose different poems or short stories (fiction) than you chose for your reading responses. Here are a few of the writers (from Volume D) I would have included in the course if there had been more time: Amy Lowell (imagist poet), Wallace Stevens (poet), T. S. Eliot (poet--short poems only), E. E. Cummings (poet), John Dos Passos (fiction writer), Ernest Hemingway (fiction writer), Thomas Wolfe (fiction writer), John Steinbeck (fiction writer). To help you choose, you may find it useful to read the biographical introductions to the writers since most of these introductions discuss the author's work in a general way Although you may use authors that you have already responded to, reading other authors is a good way to expand your knowledge and create original responses. If you use some of the same authors, be sure to choose different poems or stories. All reading selections must come from Volume D. If you do not have the textbook, please check the table of contents provided on the home page. · The paper should be in essay form with an introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion (not a collection of reading responses--no sub-headings). · You should use quotations from the reading selections as support for your general ideas. Your examples must show that you have read the literature that you are discussing, not just the author's biography. · Do not use long poems or novels as examples, since I want you to discuss the reading selections specifically, not just a short part of a longer work. Do not use The Waste Land by T. S. Eliot. · A brief overview isn't adequate. Again, you must show that you read the selection (poem or story) carefully. WRITE ABOUT ONLY ONE OF THE FOLLOWING TOPICS. 1 Defin ...

The document provides background on the Reconstruction period in American history after the Civil War.

The document outlines primary sources on Reconstruction to assist with analyzing whether the goals of Radical Reconstruction were feasible, if drastic societal transformation can occur through government action, and if a more gradual approach may have been more successful or had different costs.

Instructions: This paper requires you to analyze various primary source documents. You are expected to provide an original, carefully considered interpretation of these documents based on the historical context you have learned in the course thus far. As a response paper, it is appropriate for you to employ first-person language in your paper, however, in formulating your opinions, you must demonstrate a thorough understanding of the texts and create a well-organized 3-4 page paper.

PROMPT: For this paper assignment, you are asked to draw from the various primary and secondary sources available to answer all three of the following questions: How did the planters’ paternalism serve to justify the system of slavery? Meaning, what were the arguments used to justify the existence of slavery in the south? In particular, consider the basic points made by the proslavery defense and how they justified their point of view to both southerners and non-southern audiences. What were the lives of slaves like (including men, women and children) in the south? Consider the different types of labor systems (gang labor, task labor), and the ways in which slaves created communities and cultures that allowed them to survive in an oppressive society. What attempts were made to resist slavery? Consider the attempts made by slaves (including rebellions, runaway tactics, etc.) as well as the attempts made by the abolitionist movement. Were these attempts successful or not? Collectively, you should consider the ways in which the documents that you have chosen to highlight help us to understand more about the institution of slavery and this time period in history. Papers that do not answer all 3 prompts will not score well. SOURCES : For this assignment you need to use AND cite at least 6 sources throughout your paper .

Historian Alan Knight states that, “modern Mexico is a racial mix” and goes on to outline several examples from Mexico’s history to support one of the main claims of his essay. Identify one of the examples found in Knight’s essay and comment on its importance to the main themes of the essay overall. How would you summarize Knight’s views on the Mexican Revolution´s impact on the concepts of race and race relations in postrevolutionary Mexico? ths week's question for discussion Weekly Discussion Board Response The weekly discussion board response serves as a forum for students to participate and discuss assigned readings with classmates and the professor. This weekly assignment is broken down into 2 parts: (1) your response and (2) commenting on two other posts. The class has been organized to include the same amount of readings as a class that would meet in person. Each student is required to write a response about the Tuesday reading by Thursday – no later than 6:00 PM EST (I am including eastern standard time because several students are taking the class while outside of the country). Students are expected to write responses that are three paragraphs in length and demonstrate a strong understanding of the themes, events, and people contained in the readings. In addition, each student must pick two other student posts and comment on their response for the week. Comments should be constructive, thoughtful and focused. The purpose of the each student’s comment response is to promote dialogue between students that would typically occur in a classroom setting. Comments should be one paragraph. Weekly Response Paper Students are responsible for writing a response paper at the end of each week. The paper’s topic will draw from the readings assigned for that week. The paper’s question (or set of questions) will build off the weekly discussion response. The purpose of the weekly response paper is for students to demonstrate that they have completed the assigned readings and can critically apply the material to larger questions of history and political economy. The paper should follow the basic format of: introduction, body, conclusion, and footnotes that follow the Chicago-style format (do not cite in the body of the text). All papers should contain the student’s own, individual voice that is supported with evidence and facts drawn from the assigned readings. Other secondary sources used to complement or strengthen your argument are acceptable, however Wikipedia entries and blog posts are not acceptable as sources. It was very interesting to see the different race relations and concepts Alan Knight touches upon in his essay. One major claim that he points upon is the mestizo concept that coincides with Indian racism. Within this concept, he uses first hand references that have witnessed this racism and have also offered diagnostics on this idea as well. As Knight explores two individual groups and their history, the racist his.
