WORLD AT WAR BLOGS
Argument on Poetry: How do the poems of this unit grapple with hope and despair? By the final lines of the poems, does hope or despair triumph? Organize textual evidence to support your position.
Loss of Values: What social values are discarded in the dystopian world of 1984? Use specific textual evidence to support an original, concise thesis statement.
Comparative Texts: Relate the loss of hope and despair in both Thomas Hardy’s “The Darkling Thrush” with Orwell’s 1984. From whence does this hopelessness derive in both texts? Use specific textual evidence to support an original, concise thesis statement.
Argument on Repressive Regimes: Was Orwell’s classic novel 1984 prophetic? Consider the rise, fall, and endurance in the twentieth century of political regimes that restrict political freedoms. Use specific textual evidence to support an original, concise thesis statement.
Comparative Poetry Analysis: “The Second Coming” by William Butler Yeats and “The Hollow Men” by T.S. Eliot describe the state of Europe after World War I. How do the metaphors in the poems convey meaning? Do the poems reveal an existential world view? Why or why not? Use specific textual evidence to support an original, concise thesis statement.
Modern Art Connection: Examine the Picasso, Matisse, Mondrian and Miro images. Do these works of art have anything in common? Do they depict anything you recognize? Do you think they were made for a particular buyer, a patron, or just because the painters wanted to make them? How do they reflect the artist as an “untethered individual”? What do you think these paintings are “about”? Use specific evidence to support an original, concise thesis statement.
