A Critique of the Proposed National Education Policy Reform

1. Write a brief paragraph addressing the question and including
specific evidence to support your ideas.
1. Ernest Hemingway is perhaps the most famous American
fiction writer of the twentieth century, but many critics have
attacked his work for what they perceive as its misogyny.
Looking at “Kilimanjaro,” do you see evidence to support or
oppose the idea that Hemingway disliked or simply did not
understand women?
2. William Faulkner’s work is almost entirely concerned with
the American South in the decades after the Civil War and with
the racial and class politics of that time. How is that reflected
in these works? What is the relationship between class and race
in Faulkner’s stories?
4. F. Scott Fitzgerald’s writing is often concerned with the
role of class in American life, and specifically with the nature
of either being or wishing to be, rich. Discuss the role money
plays in the life of the characters in “Babylon Revisited.”
