Topic Brainstorm

Topic 4: Choose a reading selection. Explore the relationship between elements of the selection.

I think this would be really interesting because I always love to see how different elements of a story connect and influence one another. In the past, I've had to read a lot of novels for different English classes and we would always look at this specific idea of how the relationship between different elements of the story. I hope to learn about how a specific setting or plot could really influence different characters in the way the develop.

Topic 1: Compare and contrast elements of two different texts.

This topic seems interesting because I think it would be a lot of fun to compare a couple texts' different plots. I think it would be neat to see their similarities and differences, and if they possibly line up or are completely different. In high school, I had AP English and we would do a lot of comparing and contrasting to a few different texts or excerpts. I really hope to learn how to distinguish the differences in a few different stories' plot without having to really dive deep into both of their plots, so I feel like this topic would really help with that.

Topic 3: Choose a reading. In your project, consider the following: What does this work reflect about its historical, social, political and/or economic context?

Historical writings have always fascinated me so I think this topic would be perfect to look at again. I've taken numerous history classes, I've taken a few economic classes and I also took political science, so I feel like looking into the reflection of those issues within historical writings would be neat. Throughout this topic, I hope to learn about the way that different contexts of the writings highlight the period of time that they were written.
