Assignment

Note: the story is in your text book as well as your interactive reader

Make Judgments About Character Motivations: Mr. Hooper’s wearing of the black veil leads to his isolation from his congregation. Based on the following passages, what argument would you make about the real causes of the villagers’ discomfort in the minister’s presence?

  • the first sighting of the minister (lines 34–39) • parishioners’ comments after services (lines 105–113) • his arrival at the wedding (lines 147–152) • the attempt to confront him (lines 190–197)

Examine Character Ambiguity: The minister is an ambiguous character: he can be seen as an innocent victim of others’ fears or as a man driven to isolate himself, convinced of his own moral superiority. Identify at least two details that support each perspective. Which interpretation do you find more compelling? Give reasons for your answer.

  1. Critical Interpretations:  Creation stories often serve many purposes. According to Larry Evers and Paul Pavich, scholars of Native American literature, such stories “remind the people of who and what they are, why they are in this particular place, and how they should continue to live here.” Do you think that “The World on the Turtle’s Back” fulfills these functions? Explain, citing evidence from the text to support your interpretation. Length:  1 Paragraph (formal, academic language; 11th grade quality)
