Description
Write Character Biography B (Three-page Cultural Context Journal). This three-page paper requires that students examine a major character in either School Girls or Sojourners within its historical, political, and social context. The paper then needs to be written from the viewpoint and in the voice of the chosen character. Here are some questions to consider: What are the major social/economic/political events that impact the character during the play? What life experiences (given circumstances) have impacted the character’s outlook on relationships and other issues in the play? How do images and/or experiences of America (compared to their homeland) impact the word view of the character? You will need to do research into the period of the play and understand important events in the play to gain an understanding of the cultural context. It is best to focus on a particular event or issue than trying to generalize over a broad range of subjects. Please contact the instructor with question
