The American Renaissance/Romantic Period

1.    Choose any ONE of the works/authors of the American Renaissance or Romantic Period studied in this course and write a literary analysis of the chosen work. The focus of the essay should be three-fold: to discuss the theme of the author/work, the major characteristics of the period that are evident in the work, and major narrative devices the author uses to communicate his or her message. Your essay must have a clearly-defined thesis statement, well-developed paragraph(s), and fitting conclusion.

2.    Discuss Washington Irving’s Rip Van Winkle as an allegory – that is, as a self-sufficient narrative that nevertheless signifies more than what is said.  You may choose to focus on the entire narrative, or on brief sections or episodes that you consider allegorical.

3.    Compare and/or contrast the way in which Washington Irving, Cullen Bryant, and David Thoreau used nature in their writing.

4.    Choose ONE OR TWO poems by ONE of the following poets: Edgar Allan Poe, William Cullen Bryant, or Phillis Wheatley.  (The poem MUST be one of the assigned readings in your textbook).  Analyze the poem(s) thoroughly, considering aspects such as theme(s), verse form(s), political, cultural, social, economic, religious, literary, and historical background, and the thematic significance of important figures of speech.  Remember to choose an appropriate title and in your introduction an opening sentence and a clear thesis statement that will attract the reader.  After your discussion, be sure to “tie up” your essay with an appropriate conclusion.

5.    Imagine that someone unfamiliar with American Literature has asked you to characterize the writing of the Age of Colonialism, Age of Reason/Revolutionary era, and American Renaissance/Age of Romanticism.  Begin by writing a brief survey (including the major characteristics) of these periods of American Literature, indicating the major writers of each period.  Select ONE writer from each period and write a thumbnail description of the themes and/or characteristics of each writer’s work(s).

6.    Choose one or two characters from either Nathaniel Hawthorne’s Young Goodman Brown or Herman Melvilles Bartleby the Scrivener and discuss the ways in which each experiences conflict (either with self, other characters, or with the social and/or physical environment); the ways in which each attempts to deal with it, and the relative success or failure of each.  Who receives your deepest sympathy? Why?

Putting It All Together…. Again

What is the state of relations between the police and minority communities?
What would you recommend as an applied sociologist to address the issues?

Notes:
Our topic for this section is Crime. And if you think about it, crime has been a from the earliest days of the discipline, crime has been a topic that’s interested sociologists. And it makes sense. It’s a natural fit, right? For example, mile Durkheim wrote extensively about crime in society. And today, modern sociologists are very interested in crime and the fundamental causes of crime in the nature of the prison system, and also in the relationship between police and the communities they serve. And the latter is something that’s very much in the news in the last couple of years with Black Lives Matter, the problems of and distance between minority communities and law enforcement officers serving in those communities.

And one of the things I think you’ll see from this reading is the sociologists really have a contribution to make in this area. And the first reading, “If a crime is a problem, is community police-community or problem-solving policing the solution?” talks extensively about ways that the police can interact more effectively with the communities they serve. The second reading talks about something called the Terry Stops, the idea of what’s called street policing. The idea that you can really effectively tackle crime at the street level. One of the classic examples people use is an experiment that was done years ago where people parked a car, an old car on the street that appears to be an abandoned car, and they watched to see what would happen, and not much happened until they broke a window in the car, and then the car began to be vandalized. And the idea is that science of breakdown in order in law and order, actually beget more breakdowns, a low order foster crime.

So you combat crime by really being aggressive at the street level. There are some problems with that initial scene in your readings in that it appears that oftentimes police are more aggressive in minority communities in terms of street policing than they are in other communities. So what does it all come to in terms of sociology and sociologist, Well, I would argue that sociologists are uniquely situated to play a role in this, this area? Because the sociological toolkit: theory, sociological research methods, and the sociological imagination, or three things that are essential to understanding the true nature of crime and how to improve relationships between police departments and the communities they serve.
