Choose one of the essay topics below and create a multi-paragraph essay complete with an introduction, body paragraphs and a conclusion. Authors read in this unit: Truth, Emerson, Hawthorne, Poe, and Douglass.  1. Choose any three works and discuss how these works illustrate the struggle between individual moral judgment and external societal forces. Discuss how this conflict affects the characters’ identities, actions, or psychological states, and how these tensions reflect broader American themes of self-reliance, morality, and resistance. 2. Choose any three works and discuss how the authors present a theme of moral or intellectual awakening and how this process challenges societal norms, personal identity, and American ideals. Consider how these awakenings differ between individuals seeking freedom (Douglass, Truth), philosophers seeking truth (Emerson), and fictional characters confronting inner evil or societal hypocrisy (Hawthorne, Poe).
