- What does literature offer an individual?
- How has the importance of reading changed from earlier eras (pre-digital/audio/visual media) to our present day? Do you think we read differently now than we did in prior generations?
- Do you think Clugston's quote is valid? How have perceptions regarding the value of literature changed, if at all?
- What causes people's perceptions regarding the value of literature to change?
- Incorporate readings found in Chapters 1 through 3 to help illustrate the points you make.
