How Rituals and Symbols Reveal Cultural Norms and Values

Analyze how “Journey by Inner Light”, “A Look Behind the Veil”, and “The Veil” depict rituals and symbols to reveal the norms and values of a culture and to challenge the assumptions that govern interpretations of the world.

Consider the rituals and symbols described in the texts and what they tell you about the values of the cultures in which they are used. Consider how they create meaning and encourage a new way of seeing the world. Consider also how the meanings given to events, actions, and words are not their only possible meanings (Hirschberg & Hirschberg, 2018, p. 338), and the how rituals and symbols of different cultures challenge assumptions of those meanings.

In your paper,
Develop a thesis statement that asserts a central idea about how three texts use depictions of rituals and symbols to define the values of a community and culture.
Analyze how the three texts situate rituals, practices, and symbols within a specific cultural context.
Interpret the meaning each author wishes to convey to readers through depictions of rituals and symbols within a culture context.
Asses how the depictions of rituals and symbols in each text challenge authors and readers’ cultural assumptions that govern their interpretation of the world.
No secondary or scholarly sources are required for this assignment. However, if you do choose to bring in outside sources, remember to cite any information from those sources in APA Style. As you refer to specific passages or aspects from your primary texts in the paper, remember to cite those sources correctly and include them on your references page.
