Intro to fiction
Question Description
I choose Araby and A&P, the storys are attached and the grading rubric is attached
Choose ONE of the following story pairs:
- “Araby” and “A&P”
- Common Theme: Coming of Age
- “The Lottery” and “The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas”
- Common Theme: The willingness of a society to sacrifice the individual to the common good
Then, select ONE element of fiction to analyze in the pair: Plot (Conflict), Characterization, Setting, Point of View, Style/Tone. Compare OR Contrast how that element is used to create the theme of the stories. Do the authors employ the element in the same way or in differing ways to create meaning?
This essay will require analysis. Don’t bother retelling the stories: your readers have read them. Instead, take them apart to see how the authors use the selected element. Show us cause-and-effect relationships. The causes re the element; the effects are the common theme.
You will need to make frequent references to the story (and perhaps information in other parts of readings) in order to support your thesis. These references will need to be cited and documented. (See the “Document and Citing Sources” page in the Start Here area). The references themselves will not be sufficient: you have to draw the connections for us.
