Sidartha Translated by Joachim Neugroschel Part 1 only (pages 3-39)

How does Siddhartha’s path to enlightenment evolve in Part 1 of the novel? Consider the impact that others have on his individual quest and the conflicts and tensions that arise as he pursues his path to enlightenment. Please focus on the “WHY” of the text rather than the “WHAT.” Avoid a straight plot summary and try examine why he makes the decisions he does and how it impacts others.

Respond to the Big-Picture Question. To receive full credit, you will need to provide a complete response to the Big-Picture Question (see above) by referring directly and specifically to works discussed in the module. Typically your response will be two to four paragraphs. You will need to provide a main claim (i.e., an answer to the question) and draw on the content from the module’s readings to support your claim. Do not just summarize the work, and make sure you document the sources to which you refer with in-text citations (Links to an external site.).
Ask Your Own Question that you have about the reading. To receive full credit, your question will need to be constructive, thoughtful, and pertain to readings in that module (e.g., “Did Govinda attain enlightenment?”). A question that is too vague will not receive credit (e.g., “What is the point of the Antigone?” This question is too general to be helpful). Avoid questions that do not relate directly to the module or cannot be answered by referring to the readings in that module
