Writing Assignments
Theme 6: Work

For this assignment, consider the relationship between social class and work. Compare and contrast the attitudes toward work and class illustrated in "Digging" and "Revelation." Each of these stories is set in the past, in a Deep-South culture that is increasingly vanishing. Do their comments on work and class translate to the wider American culture of today? Consider one or more of the general theme links, such as the Hard@Work or Anxiety Culture sites, in your answer. Use the rhetorical strategy you find most appropriate for this topic.
