Hayden White argues that narrative works, even historical ones, must use the same processes as fiction. Do you agree or disagree? Use one of the films we have seen thus far (O’ Brother, Where Art Thou?, 300, or Black Orpheus) to guide your discussion and support your argument.
When using readings, lectures, and films, be clear to mark out that you are doing so with citations. Use MLA format (Author last name, page #) or for movies (Director’s last name, approximate time stamp), no bibliography required.
Your answer should not be composed of just quotes from readings or lectures, I want to see how you apply these materials. Use quotes only when short and necessary, otherwise paraphrase.
