Final Blog: What can we Learn?

Which Can We Learn More From as a Catharsis?

Respond to at least one or more of the following prompts:

*Hamlet and Holden have may tragic things occur?  Which can we as an American people learn more from?  Why?  Compare and contrast both characters.

*How are the minor females in both texts instrumental for what occurs in both texts?  Are females to blame or could any of them have saved our tragic protagonists?

*How does Catcher in the Rye blend with Fitzgerald's survival of war?  How does the same occur in Hamlet?  Does this tell us anything as a society that has often been in war?  Explain.

*Attack any arguments you find to be weak and/or support those claims others do well with.

You will be expected to cover and show a solid reading of Catcher in the Rye for this post.  Repeating segments/quotes may earn only a 6/10 score or lower.

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!
