We finished up A Midsummer Nights Dream.
I passed back old assignments.
I gave you a review sheet for the final.
Please also consider the following essay prompts:
1. Of
the literature you’ve read in this class, which book, novel, poem or play had
the strongest influence on you? Explain
why. Be sure to include a brief synopsis
of the piece, the names of characters, and specific scenes that interested you.
-
Animal Farm by George Orwell
-
All My Sons
by Arthur Miller
-
Catcher in the Rye
-
Lord of the Flies by William Golding
-
A Midsummer Night’s Dream by William
Shakespeare
2. Please examine the
narration in 2-3 of the books that we read in class. How did the narration effect your connection
with the story? Please use specific
examples.
3.
It is
said that if you ever wish to see a persons true character, you only need to give them a little power and see how the
handle it. Absolute power corrupts
absolutely. Please look at three
characters, from 3 different novels/plays that abused their power. Please make sure that you provide solid
examples for each.
4.
Please write a one page letter to
future students taking this class. What
advice would you give them? What
projects were your favorites?
