Henry David Thoreau built his famous cabin in this Massachusetts town.

What is Concord?

Walt Whitman’s life was spent composing one long series of poems, with this title.

What is Leaves of Grass?

This is the Greek rhetorical term for an appeal to emotion.

What is pathos?

This Whitman poem depicts an epiphany that a young man has after hearing a college lecture.

What is “When I Heard the Learn’d Astronomer”?

This is an appeal to a higher authority, like the Constitution.

What is ethos?

The Jungle exposes gross human rights violations in this industry.

What is the meat- packing industry?

The author of The Jungle was a part of this journalistic movement.

What is muck-raking?

Upton Sinclair disdained Capitalism, and instead preferred this state-oriented system.

What is Socialism?

Sandburg’s use of colloquial language in his poems suggests that his audience is primarily this type of person.

What is the common man (or the working class)?

When Sandburg depicts the city of Chicago “laughing as a young fighter laughs,” he is employing these TWO literary devices.

What are personification and simile?

William Faulkner wrote in this style of uninterrupted ideas from the top of his character’s heads.

What is stream-of- consciousness?

Central to the character development of Darl and Jewel is this concept, derived from the Greek letter for “x.”

What is chiasmus? (In Greek, “x” is “chi.”

With his self- proclaimed identity as one who “observes” and “knows,” William Faulkner is most similar to this narrator, one of 15 in the novel.

Who is Darl?

This is the term for the study of word origins.

What is etymology?

This is the fictional county in which Faulkner sets a large number of his novels.

What is Yoknapatawpha?

This is a type of story, like “Everyday Use,” in which a character returns home to his/her family.

What is a prodigal child story?

This is a story, like John Updike’s “A & P,” in which a character loses his innocence and enters into adulthood.

What is coming-of- age?

O. Henry’s “A Retrieved Reformation” features this type of ending, typical of his style.

What is ironic?

The conflict in Alice Walker’s “Everyday Use” surrounds this object.

What is a quilt?

Jamaica Kincaid’s “Girl” is an allegory for this.

What is colonial rule?

The novel Ethan Frome takes place in this fictional Massachusetts town, which is cold and desolate.

What is Starkfield?

Edith Wharton created this character to represent her own frustrations about being trapped in an unhappy marriage.

Who is Ethan Frome?

This is the reason that Zeena comes to stay with Ethan in the first place.

What is providing nursing care for Ethan’s mother?

Many of Hemingway’s stories take places on bridges and at train stations to represent this.

What is an in between place or a time of transition?

The short story “Hills Like White Elephants” features a discussion about this topic, though the word is never expressly used in the piece.

What is abortion?

This character, the son of Polonius, serves as a foil to Hamlet.

Who is Laertes?

During the “To be or not to be” soliloquy, Hamlet is seriously considering this.

What is suicide?

This is how the dramatis personae is arranged.

What is in order of importance in society?

In Hamlet, this character is the chief source of comic relief – besides Hamlet himself.

Who is the grave digger?

This is the literary term for when the audience knows something that a character does not – like the fact that it’s Polonius behind the curtain.

What is dramatic irony?

This is the term for use of conjunctions instead of commas, as Hemingway did (so it is sort of saying that this is the final question and it is not hard and you should get it and then win the game).

What is polysyndeton?
