Assignment:

Each of the stories we're reading by Washington Irving can be seen as a rebuke of some of the consequences of the Enlightenment. Irving seems to value the sleepy, rural lifestyle of the Dutch descendants who populate his tales, and the industrialization, political upheaval, and focus on monetary prosperity that comes with the young United States of America is a threat to that lifestyle. Explore how Irving expresses this Romantic rebuke of America in either "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" or "Rip Van Winkle" by choosing at least two examples in the form of quotations (with page numbers) of this rebuke and discussing their significance. Consider talking about Irving's use of characterization and/or symbolism to explore the problems associated with industrialization, political upheaval, and capitalism. Use specific quotations from the text and include page numbers from our book. With 350 words.
