English Literature
Free Response question:
The eighteenth-century British novelist Laurence Sterne
wrote, “No body, but he who has felt it, can conceive what a
plaguing thing it is to have a man’s mind torn asunder by two
projects of equal strength, both obstinately pulling in a con-trary
direction at the same time.”
From a novel or play choose a character (not necessarily
the protagonist) whose mind is pulled in conflicting directions
by two compelling desires, ambitions, obligations, or influ-ences.
Then, in a well-organized essay, identify each of the two
conflicting forces and explain how this conflict within one
character illuminates the meaning of the work as a whole. You
may use one of the novels or plays listed below or another
novel or play of similar literary quality.
