Based on the prompt below, you have various “adventures” you can choose as your response. Grading is based on how well you follow instructions and the depth of your analysis. The key term here is analysis. DO NOT write a summary and/or write in broad and generalized terms. NOTE: I gave everyone a “pass” for the first activity and gave you the full points if you had simply finished the assignment. However, for this round, you HAVE TO follow the instructions! Generic, generalized, and/or incomplete analyses will NOT receive full points! If you have any questions, please email me. Prompt: Pick a passage from Oroonoko, Gulliver’s Travels Book 4, OR the Equiano excerpt and analyze how it addresses ONE (or more) of the following: How does the passage you have chosen reflect on the notion of the supremacy of one set of people over another? Which text addresses the (possibly implied) notions of supremacy in an equitable way? What I mean is which text is more “realistic” in its depiction of supremacy? In what way does the passage you picked inform your understanding of (and perhaps appreciation for) similar challenges we face today? Remember that the passage you pick does not count towards the word-count requirements for the assignment!
