NECTER IN A SIEVE
Nectar Paper Prompt: The novel, Nectar in a Sieve, allows us to assess the transformations that take place at individual, family, community and social/cultural levels during processes we’ve studied as “imperialism,” “industrialization,” and “modernization” (among many others). Through your paper, taking the vantage point of one of the characters in the novel, write an assessment of your character’s life and experiences that: -uses the first person point of view -utilizes (and cites) specific changes/developments from the novel -connects those changes/developments to historical processes from our textbook reading -comments on the meaning of the title to the novel as a whole -comments on the meaning of the title of the novel in your (as in you, the student, and not the persona from the novel’s) reading of the historical processes we’ve been studying through the textbook reading Please take notice: this is not a prompt for literary analysis. I am not interested in reading a book review, book report, or plot summary. I am specifically interested in your ability to read the novel historically, i.e. to read the novel as a representation of what people went through during this time, in https://studygroom.com/yann-martels-novel/this place. Formatting: -3-5 pages in length -pdf format -a standard 12 point font, -1 inch margins on all sides -double spaced -citations are properly formatted and placed -a bibliography/works cited page lists the full citations for the sources you utilized and/or consulted. ———————————————— Ps.
