WEEK 1 FORUM: IDENTITY

For each part, focus on a different assigned reading from the course syllabus and quote passages to illustrate your observations.

PART I: After reading the Week 1 Lecture in Lessons, compose a paragraph of ‘reader response’ to the Dickinson poem and one of the Whitman poems. One paragraph each! Remember, ‘reader response’ asks that you connect with the poem in some personal way. Include lines from the poems in your response.

PART II: Find another Internet resource (this might be a text-based website or a Youtube video or a journal article) that provides some additional insight or helps you understand one of this week’s poems. Share the link and describe what the resource is and how it helped you. Make clear connections between your research and specific passages from the assigned reading you choose.

PART III: What lines from “Song of Myself” describe, in your view, something important or unique about American identity? Be sure to present the lines you’re referencing. Discuss your reason for selecting them in an additional paragraph.
