THERE ARE 4 PROMPT QUESTIONS BELOW. CHOOSE THREE TO WRITE ON. WRITE ROUGHLY 150 WORDS FOR EACH RESPONSE. * OPTION 1: NARRATION This semester, we hаve fоcused оften upоn nаrrаtion, the way that stories are told. Narration can be presented from different points of view: first-person, second-person, and third-person. Narrators possess varying levels of insight into the consciousness of characters in a story (omniscience). Finally, the style of narration–word choices, movement through time, tone, etc.--has a profound impact upon a story. Choose one work that we have read this semester (DO NOT write about "The Yellow Wallpaper" or any fiction by Edgar Allan Poe) and explain the ways that narration impacts the story that is told. * OPTION 2: TYPES OF LITERATURE We have analyzed poetry, drama, short fiction, novels, and film this semester. What have you learned about different literature (format, style, genre, etc.)? How does the format of a literary work affect the way that you interact with it? Which types of literature most resonated with you? Which did you find most challenging? Why? * OPTION 3: SOCIAL AND HISTORICAL CONTEXT In our analysis of literature, we have examined the social and historical context of authors. Choose one or two works that we have read this semester and use them as examples to answer the following questions: What is social context? What is historical context? How do these elements influence the writing and the reception of literature? Why is it important to be informed about context when reading a work of literature? * OPTION 4: RECEPTION What does "reception" mean in relation to literary works? Why might a work be valued or devalued differently across time periods? What might the reception of a work reveal about the readers who are responding to it?
