Note: Please see the attached think piece that I worked on in order to understand the directions below.
DIRECTIONS:
Here are two questions
only to think about
as you complete this discussion. You don’t need to respond to them directly:
Think about the way the society in F451 entertains itself. This is often done through violence (Mildred hits dogs in her car for fun. Clarisse says kids her age go to the “fun park” to bash cars or bully people). This is clearly problematic, but is it far off from contemporary American culture? In other words, do we also use violence as a form of entertainment?
Consider the beliefs, values, and cultural motto of people in the novel. Can you compare them with contemporary American society? (Hint: A cultural motto is something like “YOLO,” with the idea that one should just live for the now and not think about this consequences of his or her actions in the present. But can this motto be damaging to a person? To a society?)
DISCUSSION 14 DIRECTIONS
: After reading Part III from
Fahrenheit 451 (F451)
, consider the prompt you chose for Think Piece 4. Create a second main point that compares the
F451
society and American society. Use specific examples from the book AND American culture to support your response.
Reminder
: The American culture sections in this essay should be slightly larger and more elaborate than the F451 paragraph. They should have
current examples
, not historical.
Suggested Structure
(continue the same structure as Think Piece 4):
Paragraph 1
Topic sentence with main point about both societies. Another specific way topic X manifests in
F451
(explain and provide 1-2 specific examples)
Paragraph 2
Transition to the specific way topic X manifests in American culture (explain and provide 1-2

Cult of Domesticity.docx
The document discusses the "cult of domesticity" in 19th century America, which regulated women's behavior to the home and family. It provides background on the cult and directs readers to analyze four primary source passages illustrating the cult's principles of piety, purity, submissiveness and domesticity. The passages both positively and negatively portray the principles, with some emphasizing the security and comfort women gained by accepting male authority, while others demonstrate how women used language to shift stances and speak out on moral issues.

Writing Prompt: (THIS WRITING PROMPT MUST BE FOLLOWED)
In some stories, characters come into conflict with the culture in which they live. Often, a character feels alienated in his/her community or society due to race, gender, class or ethnic background. How is the character alienated from community and how does she/he respond to it? What does that character's alienation say about the surrounding society's assumptions, morality and values? In what way(s) do literary elements reflect how that society defines race, gender, class and/or ethnicity? How does this create conflict for the character?
THESIS:
There are conflicts within literary works all the time and I find it to be a very strong way to convey a story, using conflict. I have chosen two different literary stories to compare and contrast the conflict within each of them. The first is“What It's Like to Be a Black Girl” (For Those of You Who Aren't) by Patricia Smith (1991) and “Child of the Americas” by Aurora Levins Morales (1986). While both are stories about self reflection after self conflict, how each of the main characters identify and solve these conflicts are very different. I will show the differences and similarities of each.
(THESE ARE THE ONLY TWO SOURCES I HAVE COME UP WITH. MORE SOURCES ARE NEEDED!!!!)
Morales, A. L. (2005). "Child of Americas." New Jersey: Oxford Publishers.
The author in the “Child of the Americas”, speaks of the struggles that foreigners have to undergo be it economically, culturally or socially as they try to fit into the American society. The Child of America intricately details the pride and joy of being you despite what the surroundings dictate. The poem depicts the various.

Short story and modernism questions
This document provides potential discussion topics related to the short story "Barn Burning" by William Faulkner, poetry, and works by Zora Neale Hurston. For "Barn Burning," topics include analyzing it through feminist or Marxist criticism and discussing a character or symbol. For poetry, topics focus on analyzing poems using different literary lenses like feminism, modernism, cultural context, literary devices, or themes. For Zora Neale Hurston's works, topics include discussing her use of diction and point of view, analyzing pieces through a modernist lens, why her works pushed her from the Harlem Renaissance, and whether her work "How it Feels to be Colored Me" plays to stere

Final Essay Exam for English 2328
There is no grace period for the final essay.
please turn your final in to me in the assignment area in an attached file.
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.

One Step Forward, Two Steps Back The Counterintuitive Effects o.docx
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.

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

he work of four writers;
you may include more than one work by each of the four writers.

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.)

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

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.

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?
