Lesson

As we have progressed through this course, we have looked at how literature reflects the human condition.  We have considered the nature of motivations that direct an individual's course of action. We have considered the role kindness plays when individuals attempt to determine their own destiny. We have also considered the role of honesty when an individual experiences tension between optimism and reality.

As you considered these questions, you considered the characters in a wide variety of texts. Which texts and characters left the greatest impressions on you?  

Review the texts studied - shorts stories, plays, novel, film - and choose at least one character from each unit that you would feel confident on whom to write.
