Final Essay
Assignment Instructions
Overview
Throughout
this course, we have read several essays covering a multitude of themes and
ideas, all addressing in some way the question of “identity,” either implicitly
or explicitly. Some of these essays have included religious elements and some
have not, but all have explored how an individual is changed by his or her
environment. All the essays have been examples of both excellent writing and an
author considering his or her identity in a complex and nuanced way.
The final essay is one final academic essay answering
the following question. There is no minimum or maximum length requirement, but
your answer should be complete and well developed, including support (correctly
documented) from the textbook. Please use proper academic essay structure,
including introduction, thesis, body paragraphs, etc.
For your final essay, pick one of the essays we have
covered in the course and examine how the author is exploring his or her
identity. Is he or she influenced by place or education or media? Some
combination of the three? Are they thinking in terms of race, ethnicity,
gender, ability, culture, background, etc.? What are the primary
characteristics or factors of the author’s identity or change in identity here?
Finally, what is a biblical understanding of this identity? How do we “see” the
author’s identity or change in identity from a Christian worldview?
Note: Your assignment will be checked for
originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
