How do similarities/differences in gender, age, regional origin, socia

Based on any three of the assigned four memoirs/diary (Dang Thuy Tram, Lam Quang Thi, Le Ly Hayslip, and Truong Nhu Tang), write a tightly argued essay —with proper quotations/paraphrasing/citations— of 6 to (maximally) 7 pages, type-written, double-spaced, with 1 inch margins all sides, common 12 pt. font. Your essay should be a comparative, contrasting review of the three books, which is also informed by the historical information provided in Duiker’s textbook, the documentaries, other assigned articles, and lectures. You can focus primarily on any two books, but include some analysis of the third as well. Keeping descriptive passages to a minimum, focus your analysis on the following questions (not necessarily in that order; you can also add other analytical/interpretive foci): #How do similarities/differences in gender, age, regional origin, social and cultural background, political commitment, specific roles in the conflict, and specific experiences influence the authors? # How do these same similarities/differences shape the authors’ narratives? What is emphasized, de-emphasized, left out? How well do they represent, or how do they misrepresent, historical developments as you have come to understand them? # What are the most striking differences and similarities of the two books? What are the reasons for them? # What other/different groups of people/characters can you identify in the authors’ recollections? How are they portrayed? # What do the memoirs want to achieve; what are their purposes; what are their “messages”? Who are the intended “target audiences”? In this regard, how does the diary fit in with the other book(s)? # What scenes or themes of the books were the most striking or moving for you? What did they tell you fundamentally about revolutionary, war-time Viet Nam? Book list Dang Thuy Tram: Last Night I Dreamed of Peace, New York: Harmony Books/Random House, 2007.

Historical Essay #2: America and the Great War

Historical Essay #2: America and the Great War

Historical Essay #2: America and the Great War The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand was the immediate cause of World War I. But the events that led to the Great War go further back into the nineteenth century. As with the Boxer Rebellion of 1900, nationalism, imperialism, and militarism all played a part. Analyze how the forces of nationalism, imperialism, and militarism irrevocably led to World War I. Pay particular attention to the rise of Pan-Slavism in Eastern Europe and the corresponding rise of nationalism in German-speaking states. Analyze how the alliance system contributed to the ultimate outbreak of war. Then analyze the events that drew the United States into World War I. Clearly discuss why America first remained neutral between1914-1917. What role did ethnicity play in America’s neutrality? Then identify and analyze the specific events that led to America’s entrance into the war. Evaluate America’s contribution to the war effort and to what extent America’s entry contributed to the end of the war. Finally, analyze the events that led to the defeat of the Treaty of Versailles. What effect did this have on America’s role in the world during the 1920s and 1930s? Pay particular attention to the role of President Woodrow Wilson both during and after the war, in particular, his efforts to establish the League of Nations. This paper must be four to five double-spaced pages in length (not including the References page) and utilize no less than four academic quality sources. Margins should be no more than one inch (right and left) and the essay should be composed in an appropriate font and size. Sources must be documented and cited using APA format.
