Unit 5 DB: Convince us of your conflict (ENG130 Literature & Composition)

Initial Response: Jackson, Dick, and Atwood brilliantly incorporate the conflict of Man vs. Society, but which one does it better?

  1. In one to two paragraphs, argue which of the Unit 5 authors best portrays the conflict of Person vs. Society and HOW (you might like to do some more research on The Handmaid’s Tale to write about Atwood). This is a great practice for your upcoming Position Paper.  
  2. Share a modern-day piece of literature (new story, article, video, movie, novel, etc.) that supports your response and is a direct connection to the story you choose. Be sure to post the link to your modern piece of literature and explain how it connects to your chosen author/story. 
  3. Finish your post by asking a question of your peers that promotes critical thinking on this subject.
