Consider the kinds of people who focus more on the differences between Native and non-Native spiritual traditions and those who seek to find connections.

The goal is to find a single thread that, when you pull on it, connects ideas within the text. The minimum word count is 350 words (counting only your commentary, not the evidence). But the more you write, the more room you have to develop your ideas Remember that your goal is to develop your ideas in some depth, so you want to limit your focus. Trying to talk about more than 2 or 3 characters (or more than 2 texts) on a single point will mean youll barely scratch the surface.

The best place to start developing any kind of argument is by sifting through the evidence. This assignment is designed to help you gather evidence and identify patterns in that evidence. The aim is to get you developing a thesis directly from the evidence.

The goal is to move from broad, abstract concepts (motherhood, family, identity) to a concrete topic with a clearly defined focus. The former is usually a word or phrase the latter requires a complete sentence.

Suggested Topics:
(1) Consider the kinds of people who focus more on the differences between Native and non-Native spiritual traditions and those who seek to find connections.
(2) Consider how otherworldly beings and happenings are represented in the novel.
