    Identify an enigma in the text (i.e. something you consider mysterious, obscure, ambiguous, confusing, or somehow demanding of interpretation).

    Consider possible solution

    part 2

    The Garden story (Gen. 3) and the Cain and Abel story (Gen. 4) follow strikingly similar narrative patterns: warning, transgression, divine questioning, evasion or deflection, punishment, banishment, and an unexpected act of protection or care.

    What do you consider to be the most intriguing differences between these narratives? What meanings can you draw out of a close consideration of these differences? 350words

    Part 3

    Genesis 12 presents an account of the origins of the nation of Israel.

    In the Book of Ezekiel 16, there is a different origin story:

    Ezekiel

    16 Thus says the Lord GOD to Jerusalem: Your origin and your

    birth were in the land of the Canaanites; your father was an Amorite and your mother a

    Hittite. 4 As for your birth, on the day you were born your navel cord was not cut, nor

    were you washed with water to cleanse you, nor rubbed with salt, nor wrapped in

    cloths. 5 No eye pitied you to do any of these things for you out of compassion for you,

    but you were thrown out in the open field, for you were abhorred on the day you were

    born.

    6 I passed by you and saw you flailing about in your blood. As you lay in your blood, I

    said to you, Live! 7 and grow up like a plant of the field. You grew up and became tall

    and arrived at full womanhood; your breasts were formed, and your hair had grown, yet

    you were naked and bare.

    8 I passed by you again and looked on you; you were at the age for love. I spread the

    edge of my cloak over you and covered your nakedness: I pledged myself to you and

    entered into a covenant with you, says the Lord GOD, and you became mine. 9 Then I

    bathed you with water and washed off the blood from you and anointed you with oil

    Read these two accounts closely and in your discussion address the following:

    • What are the most striking similarities and differences between the ways Genesis 12 and Ezekiel 16 portray Israels beginnings?
    • What different ideas of election or being chosen by God emerge in these two texts?
    • What effect do you think the fact that the Abraham story became central to Israel had on Israels understanding of itself?

You’ll develop what you’ve begun in the Informal Essay into a 3-4 page formal essay (according to MLA guidelines, so, a Works Cited page will be in addition to the 3-4 pages) by connecting the authentic feeling that is the focus of your Informal Essay (Ive attached) with a particular place in Los Angeles. You’ll need my notes to your Informal Essay and will be expected to pay strict attention to those as well as my posts to the Writing Tips discussion board and all of the other materials shared in the course related to formal writing.

  • English Question

You will choose one topic from the list provided and develop a comprehensive analysis using sociological theories and doing website research. This paper aims to connect your lived experiences with broader sociological concepts and provide potential solutions to the issues discussed. This assessment will help you develop a deeper understanding of how sociological theories apply to real-world issues and personal experiences. It will also encourage you to think critically about potential solutions to societal problems.


    Topics

    Please choose one topic from the list below.

    Topic 1: Your socialization experiences as a child focusing on learned gender roles

    Topic 2: Your experience with stereotypes, prejudice, and discrimination (based on race, gender, culture, sexual orientation, mental health, disability — including learning disability, and/or physical characteristics)

    Topic 3: Your experiences with health/health care (think about access to health care/health care costs, or health and stigma)

    Topic 4: Your experiences with social stratification/social inequity and access to educational opportunities

    I. Introduction to Topic (one page)

    • The organization you chose should address your topic with the idea/goal of reducing the problem on a societal level (for example, an organization created to promote gender equity/reducing the pay gap, or organizations to improve health and/or education access based on income inequality, or organizations that promote racial equality/tolerance).
