Question Description
these are questions are taken from from a book called the shawl. The answers can be short and effective or depending on how much we need to explain. I attached the material that is needed for the assignment.
The questions :
- How old is Rosa at this point? Has she remarried and had other kids?
- What did she do for a living? What happened to her business/source of income?
- Where was Rosa living and where did she move? What are her living conditions like? Why do you think she lives the way that she does?
- Where is Stella and what is her relationship like with Rosa?
- Do you agree with Cynthia Ozick's idea that Stella is "an equal victim with Rosa" and that "Stella has become a ghost or a phantom of all of Rosa's fears and terrible traumatic memories?"
- On p.24, there is a description of Rosa and how she cares for herself. What do you make of that?
- Why is Rosa so upset when she loses her underwear at the laundromat? Do you find the situation humorous? Why or why not?
- Who is Simon Persky and why does Rosa decide to trust Simon Persky? Is his occupation significant to his character?
- What does Rosa mean when she tells Persky, "Your Warsaw isn't my Warsaw” (19, 22). How are their backgrounds different? How are they similar?
- What do you think Persky’s comment to Rosa, “You can’t live in the past?” (23)
- What do you make of the attention Persky gives to Rosa? Why does he pursue her?
- How does Stella's life mirror Rosa's? How is it different? What does this suggest about their relationship?
- What role does Dr. Tree play in the novella? Are there people today who might act like Dr. Tree? Can you sympathize with Rosa's hatred for him?
- Why does Rosa reject labels like "survivor" and "refugee" in favor of "human being?"
- What package does Rosa eagerly await and why is this so important?
- What does the shawl symbolize to Rosa? To Magda? To Stella?
- Analyze the following characters, comparing and contrasting how they cope with trauma: Celie, Rosa, Stella, Nettie.
