1- Choose one of the authors from the Romantic Era, besides Emerson and Thoreau, and make an argument for how well the author’s work fits with Transcendentalism. Start by defining Transcendentalism, using at least two passages from Emerson and/or Thoreau. Then, make a claim about the author you have chosen, and defend your claim with at least two additional passages. Your claim will look something like this: “(Author’s name)’s work fits well with Transcendentalism (or is counter to Transcendentalism) because (identify a tendency in the author’s work).”
2-Compare and contrast Frederick Douglass’s and Olaudah Equiano’s slave narratives.
