Questions

Chооse ONE оf the prompts below аnd write а 300-400 word response. Pаy close attention to the formatting guidelines and other requirements. This response covers all readings after Reading Response 1. You are not permitted to respond to other texts. Rules: Do not use outside sources of any kind. This should be YOUR response to the readings. Do not plagiarize or use generative AI. Do not use revision services such as Grammarly.  You MUST use direct quotes with parenthetical citations. Topics: Choose one or more of the Anne Bradstreet poems we read and explain how her poetry reflects Puritan doubt. Clearly explain how the poem(s) show 1) Bradstreet's personal struggles with faith and 2) Puritan ideology as a whole. Cite information from at least one of the Bradstreet video lectures to support your analysis. Explain how Jonathan Edwards' sermon "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" reflects an evolution in Calvinist ideology. What does Edwards say about salvation? Are his ideas consistent with the Calvinist concept of predestination, or do you see a shift toward something else? Explain how Benjamin Franklin constructs his value system. Pay particular attention to his thirteen virtues, but also look at episodes from earlier in the autobiography, such as his work ethic and his failed attempt at vegetarianism.
