PART 1–
Hello Class!
Let us now look at modern myths and how they play into our lives.
For your initial post (Due by Oct. 12 Saturday 11:59p):
What similarities do you see between the readings last week, if any? Why do you believe these are still relevant today? (John Henry, Bogey Man, Himalayan Yeti)
What do digital humanities mean to you? Explain.
Since the internet is worldwide, does this make it easier for myths to spread from person to person? What is the need for these modern myths?
Do you see these myths/stories as representing our current culture since they are considered modern? Explain.
Have you heard any other internet folklore/myths? Please share!
PART 2—-
Instructions:
Write a 5-6-page paper using 2 or more library sources. Papers must be at least 5 total pages long and follow standard MLA formatting (typed, double-spaced, 12 pt. Times New Roman font, 1-inch margins). Please cite (using MLA) all of the required sources and have a Works Cited page.
Checklist for Final Paper:
5 full pages or more; 5 minimum. The first half should be your story/myth. The second half should be your analysis using your sources.
Do not include MLA heading, (my name, your name, class); only page numbers and title, please.
Do not include an annotated bibliography. Works cited should be at the very end.
Your paper should include one in-class source and one source from your own research. So, one of the Humanities based texts from class, not one of the stories; and the other is from your research from the library or a valid scholarly source. If you are unsure, ask me. NO WIKI.
Remember, this is a creative project, so be creative!
For your analysis, you are essentially doing what we have been doing in our discussion posts. Seeing how this created myth is relative to human life. Be that through the structure of empires, the fear of aging/dying, love, and everything else we have covered. Start your analysis as if you are having a conversation with your friend, talk about life, and talk about your thoughts on the subject you are writing about.
