Reading assignment below:
Book Group-
The best way to understand and get a
"taste" of a culture is to read their fairy-tale's and poetry. I would
like to look at America from a different viewpoint and try to see what I
would see if I weren't a native. How do other people view Americans
when they read our stories? What kind of flavor do our stories produce?
Try to step outside the boundaries and get a different viewpoint. :)
Ralph Waldo Emerson: Essay IV - Spiritual Laws and Essay V - Love
Emily Dickinson: Poem XXV - "Resurrection" - Poem XLVI - "Aspiration" and own choice
An American Tall-Tale, Myth, or Legend of your choice
All of these should be available on the public domain.
Happy reading and discovering!
