This week you learned about the American Civil War (1861-1865), a conflict that, very simply, was about slavery. However, as President Abraham Lincoln suggests in his famous The Gettysburg Address.pdf, more than slavery was at stake in the Civil War.
Consider the following passage from Lincoln’s The Gettysburg Address:
“Four score and seven years ago [in 1776] our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.” In this passage, Lincoln states that the Civil War is being fought so that the nation “might live.”

Answer these questions in essay, not in question and answer form. In other words, don’t number your answers and don’t put the questions in the essay. All of the essay should be double spaced with a minimum of three pages. You don’t need a cover sheet or work cited page and should use 10 or 12 point font maximum, no extra spaces between paragraphs and provide page numbers in parentheses for anything you use from the book.
After answering these questions go to the prompt at the bottom of this page and write a three page response to that prompt that follows the same instructions for the Brave New World Questions.
Questions from Brave New World
1.Few of Huxley’s predictions have proven to be perfectly accurate, yet many aspects of the Utopia of Brave New World feel uncomfortably like our world. Which aspects of the book did you find most disturbing? Which hit closest to home? Which seem the most far-fetched?
2. When Brave New World was first published in 1932, the world was plunged in depression, fascism was on the rise in Western Europe, and Marxism appealed to increasing numbers of intellectuals in Europe and America. Is the book limited to that time period or does it transcend its time and place
3. The two greatest obscenities in the society of Brave New World are birth and mother. Why?
4. Toward the end of the book, the Controller Mustapha Mond sums up the benefits of living in the “brave new world” Utopia: “The world’s stable now. People are happy; they get what they want, and they never want what they can’t get.” It sounds like perfection, and yet the world Mond describes is deeply, intentionally horrifying. Why? What exactly is so bad about this society of the future? Is there anything good about it, anything we could learn from and try to adapt to our own uses.
5. As dehumanizing and oppressive as the brave new world Utopia is, the alternative in the “savage reserve” is in many ways worse – dirty, violent, unhealthy, cruel, uncomfortable. What point is Huxley making about human nature and the nature of human communities? Is his vision totally negative – or does the book hold out some shred of hope, some alternative mode that fosters both freedom and community.
6. Could anything like Brave New World really happen? Has it happened in some form that we don’t fully recognize?
Prompt
You have been dropped off on a deserted island with 49 other people, divided equally between men and women. All of you are adults and are of child bearing age. There is enough food and water to feed everyone but there is no currency or money. There is no hope of rescue from the island and who would want to be rescued anyway! It’s an island paradise. Using everything you have learned this semester in class, create your version of what a good government and society would look like. In order to create the “utopian” version of society, look at the following factors:
What type of government would exist? Be specific here but don’t worry about a label. Try to talk about how it would work, not what it is called. In other words, you’re not stuck with what has been done in the past. When creating your government consider:
Read the discussion topic below, create an original response in 100 words and respond to at least two other students.
Discussion Topic:
What is the role of the audience and how do they participate in the live theatre experience? Using what you have learned in Chapter 2 about The Audience, discuss what you think the role of the audience is. Use specific examples from your personal experience of attending a live theatre performance…how did it make you feel?
Respond to a classmate who chose an approach different from the one you chose (I chose Montessori). After reading the response, decide if you would still make your choice or if their post has caused you to reconsider. Explain why or why not. 5 sentences or more.
Waldorf Approach:
The Waldorf approach is educational atmosphere that is loving warmth and guidance that promotes joy, wonder, and positive energy in the classroom for children. The most important factor of the Waldorf approach is the inner attitude of the educator. Therefore the work of the Waldorf educator demands an ongoing process of research and self-education including anthroposophical study, meditative practice, artistic and practical activity.
In the environments of the nursery, home care programs, childcare centers, parent child programs ,and other educational settings the foundation are on
Here are some of Waldorf characteristics:
Loving interest in and acceptance of each child

IQ Test from personality-testing.info Introduction This is an IQ test loosely modeled after Raven’s Progressive Matrices. It was normed on an internet sample. Procedure This test has 25 questions which start on the next page. The last page has scoring instructions. The questions take the form of a 3×3 matrix from which one tile is missing. For each question their are eight possible answers A-H. You must choose the tile that completes that matrix best
Before responding to the two letters, I would encourage you to talk to someone about both- maybe a parent, pastor, etc. Ask them how they think the Church should and/or would respond to a similar movement today.
