Whose Fault Is it? Can this teach us anything about history?
*Argue which character/s from both Oedipus the King and The Great Gatsby caused the most problems for the tragic circumstances. There is not one correct answer, but be prepared to defend using quotes from both texts.
*You may wish to incorporate if characters may be like our own leaders or leaders in history as part of your response.
You may discuss any segment of the play/novel, including the end.
Please take into considering societal, historical, and.or gender roles in your response (or you may have other ideas).
For full credit, you MUST have quotations as support of your points, you MUST show reading and avoid online summary info, you MUST respond to a minimum of 2 posts. Points will be deducted for those students who wait until the last 12-24 hours, for spelling problems, repeating information already stated, confusing responses, attacking classmates verbally, simply agreeing without saying much of anything, or off-topic commentary.
------Having support from databases may be given additional credit if used well----
DATABASES ARE NOT REQUIRED FOR THIS BLOG, but your argument will be judged harshly, so be prepared to defend yourself!
