Week 10 ( post spring break) | Class Work | Homework |
Monday Turn in Syllabus the following Monday for 100 points Extra credit if and only if you have completed all assignments! | Organize Field trip to Chaya * Essay on One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest: Possible Topics: The main conflict in One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest is described in three different ways: as the struggle of the "sane individual vs. a crazy institution," "man vs. machine," and "a primeval, wild, unsocialized, anti-family form of masculinity vs. asexual women, institutions, and society that want to tame it." Discuss how these views differ from one another. Choose the theme that you think most accurately describes the conflict in the book and explain why. Kesey states that One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest helps the reader to "question reality" by "tearing away the fabric of what we've been told is reality and showing us something that is far more real." Do you agree with Kesey's analysis of his book? Select a scene or two that does or does not effectively accomplish this. How would Deborah Tannen analyze Nurse Ratched? Discuss how language is used in realizing repression and/or anti-authoritarianism. | * Do Activities 13 |
