Question Description

2. In an essay of at least 300 words, compare and contrast two readings we've read so far this quarter.  Before you begin writing, you may want to think about the following:

  • Where were the works composed or written?  When?
  • What was the purpose of the author?
  • What themes are found in the work?
  • What are the defining qualities of men and women in the works?
  • What emotions are prevalent?
  • What obstacles must be faced?
  • Who are the protagonists and antagonists?
  • Are the works still relevant today?  If so, why?

In your response, provide specific details from the textbook to strengthen your argument.  The textbook is the only source allowed on the exam.  You must use MLA Style in-text citations.  For more information about MLA Style, see the Purdue Online Writing Lab here: http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/747/02/

Please to choose from one of the following:

  • “Ancient Mediterranean and Near Eastern Literature” and The Epic of Gilgamesh
  • “Homer” and The Iliad (Books I, XXII, and XXIV)
  • “Virgil” and The Aeneid (Books I, II, and IV).
  • “Ancient India” and The Ramayana of Valmiki
