American Literature:
The forum for this week addresses the third learning objective: Produce an original opinion based on assigned literature.
Select one of the assigned readings for this week and find a piece of art or music which you feel connects to or represents the reading. Your selection may come from any period in history. If you select a piece of art, please include a cited link to an image of the piece. If you select a song please include a cited link to the lyrics or an auditory version. In your response discuss how you see the artistic or musical piece as relating to the reading (you may want to consider characteristics of Post-Modernist writing as well as the historical context if necessary).
