3 Dr. Heidegger s Experiment Kahoot! Anticipation Guide

4 Dr. Heidegger s Experiment Anticipation Guide 1. People always learn from their mistakes. 2. Age brings wisdom. 3. Age is just a number. 4. Never be satisfied with what you have. 5. Young people lack wisdom. 6. Young people take things for granted. 7. Never trust free things. 8. You can t teach an old dog new tricks.

5 Writing Prompt The Fountain of Youth 12/14/2016 What does our society seem to value more: youth, vigor and beauty, or experience and wisdom? Support your answer with examples.

6 American Romanticism Unit Objectives Students will be able to understand that romantic literature is a journey away from the corruption of society and the limits of rational thought toward the integrity of nature and the freedom of the imagination. American Romanticism broke into two separate journeys: an exploration of the past and of exotic or supernatural realms and the contemplation of the natural world. It introduced a hero completely different than all previous heroes he was youthful, innocent, intuitive, close to nature and uneasy with women. Essential Questions: How does American Romantic literature reflect, clarify, and criticize the time it portrays? How do the selections express the shared qualities of the beliefs and cultures of the time period? How does Romantic literature differ from Early American literature?

7 Satire blends humor with criticism for the purpose of instruction or the improvement of humanity Through humor, expose the folly of man and bring about change (improvement)

8 The necessary ingredients Humor Criticism, either general criticism of humanity or human nature or specific criticism of an individual or group. Some kind of moral voice: simply mocking or criticism is not satire.

9 The Satiric Manner Irony Either good natured criticism or bitterly cynical denunciation Always opposed to pretense, affectation, and hypocrisy

10 Some tools of the satirist Direct satire Understatement/overstatement Hyperbole Irony Indirect Satire Parody Caricature Exaggeration/Diminutization Utopianism Dystopianism

11

12 Parody = a work of literature that mimics another work of literature, usually as a way of criticizing it. Monty Python and the Holy Grail Austin Powers Scary Movie/Epic Movie Gulliver s Travels Don Quixote

13 Caricature = An exaggerated portrayal of the weaknesses, frailties, or humorous aspects of an individual or group.

14 Caricatures of the presidential candidates by Saturday Night Live cast members in 03 year actually changed the way that the candidates performed in public.

15 Exaggeration = The portrayal of something trivial or unimportant as very important, usually to emphasize its triviality. Diminutization = the portrayal of something perceived as important as something trivial/unimportant to show its unimportance. ** Zoolander and the fashion world ** Weird Al s Amish Paradise ** A Modest Proposal (Johnathan Swift)

16 Utopianism = A criticism of the status quo through comparison with a superior kind of society that highlights the weaknesses of one s own. Dystopianism = A criticism of certain aspects of society through comparison to an inferior society that adopts some of these aspects. - George Orwell s Aldous Huxley s Brave New World - Ray Bradbury s Fahrenheit 451 * Both Dystopianism and Utopianism use contrast to make point.
