For your second paper, please write 5 pages (double-spaced) and focus on one work 

primarily in your analysis. Please don’t use secondary sources; this is about developing 

your analysis and thought process. 

Below are some prompts to consider, but please feel free to come up with your own 

idea or some variation of what you find here; just come and talk to me first.

 

1. Time Crunch- Many of the works that we have read manipulate time in telling 

ways in order to construct their narrative and connect to a larger whole, whether 

in the relationship between individual narrative, generations, and large swaths of 

time (Genesis, Histories) or in the active play with time to tell a story (Odyssey, 

Sappho, Song of Solomon). Pick a work, or even a character within the work, and 

analyze how time and change affect our understanding of it.

 

2. Who are You?- Establishing identity, recognizing another, and seeking to belong 

are constant features in the works that we have read. You might look at narratives 

of testing, disguise, and identity in the Odyssey or Genesis, playing with voices in 

Song of Solomon, or cultural ties that bind in the Histories. Consider how issues 

of identity and belonging inform one of the works that we have read.

 

3. I Think, Therefore I Want- Desire informs much of what we have read, whether 

it be desire for material riches, for happiness, for understanding, for erotic 

fulfillment. Consider how desire plays a part in one of the works we have read, 

perhaps the relationship between knowledge and desire (Genesis), the natural 

world and desire (Song of Solomon), or political and individual desires 

(Histories).
