One novel that I really enjoyed reading was Great Gatsby. I read it my junior year of high school and find it very interesting. I loved how the author used comparison to show the difference between new money and old money. Then I also appreciated the use of symbols throughout the novel such as the green light from across the body of water representing hope. I enjoyed the word choice throughout the novel, where different charters depending on their backgrounds spoke different languages. I also enjoyed the traumatic events that happen throughout the book to give it some character and intensify the overall novel. I also enjoy the flow of the book where it slowly unmask who this mysterious man was that has all these extravagant parties.
Assignment one we will be writing a paper analyzing at least 6 sources your field of study. Personally I will be finding sources in the field of history. I will probably analyze sources talking about important events or important individuals throughout history. I will look for the purpose of these sources. How do they put bias into these sources or use facts to benefit one side of an argument. I will be able to determine how the author feels about these events or individual. This assignments go back to many previous English assignments before.We are given a text of some sort and we have to analyze it. Try to determine the author's underlying argument and themes occurring throughout the text.
