Instructions: Write a 6-8 page essay that responds to one of the topics listed below. In order to receive a high grade, your essay must have a clear argument developed with specific textual examples. I am interested in how you interpret what you read and how you examine ideas inspired by your reading and one of these prompts. If you can clearly demonstrate this, you will get a good grade. No outside sources are required, but if you choose to use critical sources to enhance your own argument, you must cite them. If you don’t, you will fail. This paper is due via Blackboard on Thursday, May 16. No extensions.
1. Julia Hawes plays a peripheral role in Edith Wharton’s Summer. Analyze the significance of this “minor” character and how Wharton uses her to develop and complicate her depiction of Charity’s decisions toward the end of the novel?
2. Analyze the relationship between Royall’s Old Home speech and the ending of Edith Wharton’s Summer. Given the novel’s composition—Wharton’s depictions of Charity, Royall, the society in which they live, and the lives they live there—is its ending inevitable?
3. Like many American novels published since the early nineteenth century, Nella Larsen’s Passing depicts racial passing. How does Larsen use the passing theme to explore one issue besides race.
4. How does Nella Larsen use her depiction of Clare’s childhood to develop this character’s behavior and decisions? What is the significance of Clare’s and Irene’s childhood friendship to Passing’s plot and resolution?
