Choose ONE of the following prompts and write a well developed, well-structured essay(compelling title, introduction, thesis, body, conclusion, parentheticalin-text citations, Work Cited entry) in response. If a question contains more than one part, make sure you answer each section equally. Support your claims with evidence from the primary text(s) you are analyzing. Please cite all sources using MLA format. I am interested in YOUR ideas, not commentary found on websites.

Question 1

Choose one of the following characters (Oedipus, Hamlet, Marlow, Kurtz, J. Alfred Prufrock) and Apply the 12 Steps of the Hero's Journey to your selection by filling out the worksheet; remember, not all elements will show up in your chosen work, so not all blocks will necessarily be filled out. However, there should be enough to show the three main stages in your analysis. Also, how has studying this character's journey
helped you to gain insight into personal experience and your daily professional life?

Pick a poem or pair of poems that you have not previously worked with and write an analytical essay describing your relationship to the poem(s). I'm especially interested in hearing your interpretation of themes and images that occur in the poetry. What connections can you make to other texts that we have studied this semester? How does the poetry affect you in your daily life as a nurse?
