Due, as an attachment, via the “Assignments” tool on Canvas, by 11:55pm
Wednesday, December 16 (in PDF or any format easily converted to PDF,
e.g. MSWord).
Answer any two of the following questions, 2–3 pages for each answer, for a
total of 4–6 pages.
The questions are keyed to different reading assignments, with the idea that
each question is raised most centrally in a certain part of the reading. However,
you can and should use material from anywhere in the text where it’s relevant to
the answer.
Your focus should be on answering the questions accurately, not on making an
original point or argument (if you want to do that, you should choose the paper
option). However, all the questions do require some thought; they can’t simply be
read out of the texts. And, of course, as usual, your answer must be “original” in
the sense that it is your own work. (You are not required, and in fact not even
encouraged, to use any outside source, but, if you do, you must cite it
properly.)
