english writing homework the is a short answer

You may use all course materials (textbooks, readings, and internet resources both within and outside of Blackboard) to answer your questions. But—this is in relation to the honor code—be sure that all words, phrases, ideas, and interpretations are yours alone. This means absolutely no patchwriting and uncited sources, and no discussing of your answers, please, with members of the class or with anyone else (including tutors, roommates, friends, or consultants in the writing center).

Overall goals of the exam: to demonstrate knowledge of major literary critical genres and ideas in the works that we have read; to demonstrate close reading (explication) of two literary passages; to make connections between works in the syllabus, and--I mean this sincerely—to say something smart.

Q (1 ) SHORT DEFINITION (12 points). Define EIGHT of the following terms in anything from a phrase to a complete sentence. Indicate their relevance (of course) to texts we have studied this semester.

Here is an example of an acceptable answer:

(QUERIG)- Dragon in the buuried Giant whose breath makes people forget. This makes them forget atrocities that their neighbors afflicted on them in war.

1- Bildungsroman  2-Bretons  3-epiphany  4-Gerasim  5-grotesque  6-internal monologue  7-Leo Tolstoy  8-magical realism  9-realism  10-Royal in Go Tell It on the Mountain  11-Sacraments in the Catholic tradition  12-The Boatman  13-The Curse of Ham  14-The Great Migration from the American South  15-The Honeywell Project  16-The Threshing Floor

Q (2) SHORT ANSWER (6 points). Briefly answer TWO of the following questions. Your answer should be a no more than a few sentences in length 

1-"I got the touch."

"No matter what happens to me, where I go, what folks say about me....please remember--I was saved."  “Ivan Ilych’s life had been most simple and most ordinary and therefore most terrible.”

CLOSE READING/ PASSAGE EXPLICATION AND ANALYSIS

Q(3) 2 points for each correct identification; 10; 20 possible points for each paragraph-length analysis; 50 points total.)

Q (3) For each of the following passages, identify the speaker and the work from which it comes. If you do not know the name of the speaker, briefly describe the speaker (for example, “the narrator” or something like “Olivia’s steward”). Then, chose TWO of the passages and write a substantial paragraph for each like we practiced in class. Identify the passage's relation to the plot and to larger themes within the work. If relevant, identify the passage's literary technique (that is, the use of any poetic forms, metaphors or similes, turns in the narration, and so forth). Any translations in brackets are my own.
