1) Machiavelli’s claim that for people in positions of power “It is better to be feared than to be loved, if one cannot be both.”
Write on Machiavelli .
Please foll
Write an essay in which you use a concept from one of the non-fiction essays we have read (Twain, Machiavelli, or Ericsson) as a lens, or frame, to analyze a work of narrative art that interests you. It could be a movie, TV show, short story, novel, podcast, etc. Whatever you want to write about. It can also be one of the works of fiction we read in this class.
The idea is to use the critical lens to examine your subject. Attempt to engage/converse with said author and their theory in a way that provides deeper insight into the subject matter of your choice.
The simplest way to write this kind of essay is to pick a single quote or concept from the “lens”–such as Machiavelli’s claim that it is better for a ruler to be feared than loved or Twain’s idea of “the lie of silent assertion”–and then your paper would explain whether your subject demonstrates this idea or contradicts it.
Example 1: As an example, a lens essay might look at the popular TV show Game of Thrones though the lens of Machiavellis claim that it is better for rulers to be feared than loved. The thesis statement might be: In the acclaimed television show Game of Thrones, the rulers who follow Machiavellis principle that is better to be feared than loved are the most successful.
Example 2: Another essay might discuss Twain’s idea of “the lie of silent assertion” through the lens of The Hunger Games, and argue that the dystopian society in that novel (and/or movie) functions because the people in the capital silently assert to the titular hunger games.
These are merely examples. I want you to pick whatever novel, TV show, or other work of art interests you.
I will go over the lens essay format more in class, and you can find information on this type of essay online. This is a good quick guide (Links to an external site.). I’ve uploaded another guide on Canvas.
Possible Lenses:
You may choose an idea that interests you, but if you’re unsure what to pick I recommend one of these three lenses:
1) Machiavelli’s claim that for people in positions of power “It is better to be feared than to be loved, if one cannot be both.”
2) Twain’s concept of “the lie of silent assertion” in which the worst faults of society endure because we all silently go along with them.
3) Ericsson’s claim that “faades can be destructive because they are used to seduce others into an illusion.”
Notes:
Pick a concept from one of the non-fiction essays we read as your lens. Either Twain, Machiavelli, or Ericsson.
Your subject may be one of the short stories we have read in class but you are free to pick a movie, TV show, documentary, or any other work of your choosing.
Remember to use APA formatting, including a title page and reference page.
Pick an original title.
Quote from your texts and use APA in text citations.
Double space your work, use 12 point font, and indent paragraphs.
Run a spell and grammar check and then proofread your work before submitting. You can also use the free “Smarthinking Online Tutoring” system which is available through Canvas.
