Portable Legacies challenges students to enter the world of the 21st century, a culturally diverse place in which people's fates are crucially interconnected. It also introduces students to the analysis of literature, critical thinking and reading, and argument. The selections-fiction, poetry, drama, and nonfiction-represent complex and exciting traditions from 500 B.C. to the first decade of the 21st century. They include both global masterpieces and contemporary works, from William Blake to Luisa Valenzuela, from Sophocles to August Wilson, from Anton Chekhov to Nadine Gordimer. As a thematic exploration of the individual in social, political, and cultural contexts, Portable Legacies engages us in intellectual inquiry and provides the personal pleasures associated with the arts. By reading and responding to fiction, poetry, drama, and nonfiction, we discover more about ourselves and others; we expand our thinking as conscious human beings. We develop moral imagination so that we can envision the views, experiences, and beliefs of others. Brief Contents: Critical Thinking and Critical Analysis of Literature, The Reading Process, The Writing Process Writing the Essay about Literature, Arguments about Literature, Identity and Rites of Passage, The Self and Beyond, Gender and Sexuality, Sites of Conflict, Fiction, Poetry, and Drama Nonfiction.…
