Author’s influence

Watch “Historical Criticism: Guernica” before completing this post. 

Watch Gilman’s work and her biography. Historically, the story was based on personal experience (autobiographical)-

1. How effectively does Gilman employ the events of her life.

2. Where do you see the author’s experiences come through? 

3. What commentary/theme/message is she making about society? About culture? Compare this to the message of Guernica. 

I want Solid answers use at least three specific examples of actions, words or behaviors from the work to support their position. Remember to start your post with a thesis statement/topic sentence that addresses the writing prompt.
