Presentation Transcript

  1. AP Literature Prompts • From one of you readings, select an unrealistic or “distorted” event or character and explain how such a distortion relates to the more realistic elements of the work. In other words, how can the inclusion of certain unrealistic situations or characters help authors convey their ideas? • Developing strong characters is often the goal of many authors. In fact, as readers, we may even be manipulated to feel sympathetic towards an evil or immoral character. Using a character from your reading, analyze how and why readers might feel sympathy towards an evil or immoral character. • Morally ambiguous characters - characters whose behavior discourages readers from identifying them as purely evil or purely good - are at the heart of many works of literature. Examine a work where such a character plays a pivotal role. Explain how the character can be viewed as morally ambiguous and why his or her moral ambiguity is significant to the work as a whole. Avoid mere plot summary.
