mtroyal gned1404 writing about images survivors tale

Choose one of the following events that is either partially described or alluded to in Maus I. Find out more about the event or place. Argue why knowing more about the event either contributes, or does not contribute, to a better understanding of Spiegelmans narrative. For each one of these topics, a good starting place is Britannica Academic. Links to articles on the subjects below in Britannica Academic can be found on Blackboard under Essay #2 Sources.
-National Socialism (the Nazi Party) led by Adolf Hitler
In your analysis you should explore how Spiegelman portrays, for example, the fear and despair the Nazis created amongst the Jewish population, both textually and visually. In other words, your essay should not simply be a summary of how the Nazis came to power
-The origins of the Holocaust in Germany Spiegelman (32-33)
Your analysis should explore the early warning signs shown in Spiegelmanvisually and textuallyand how they correlate to your research.
-The invasion of Poland (1 Sep 1939) Spiegelman (47-49)
This should especially focus on the experiences of Vladek on the Front and as a prisoner-of-war.
-Warsaw Ghetto Uprising (1943) Spiegelmans father alludes to the ghetto they lived in (105)
How do Spiegelmans texts and images convey the horrors of ghetto life? Support this with your research.
Option Two:
In what ways does Maus show the effects of the past on the present? How have the experience of Holocaust survivors affected them and their families? This should be tied in with the ways that you see that the Holocaust has affected Vladek and Artie. This should not be an essay only about Holocaust survivors and their present-day experiences. Weave in your research with the experiences shownboth visually and textuallyby Vladek and Artie.
Option Three:
In Art Spiegelmans Maus: A Survivors Tale I: My Father Bleeds History, the author makes a distinct choice to represent his characters with the heads of different animals. This, combined with the use of the word tale in the title, suggests that his narrative takes the form of a fable. Why, do you think, Spiegelman makes these choices? Consult sources (Oxford Reference, for example) for a definition of fable. You may want to provide examples of other texts that use the form of a fable to tell a dark story. Any sources read to support your argument must be used only as inspiration for your own ideas.
Option Four:
What does Maus do that pure text narratives cannot? How do Spiegelmans drawings help visualize things words alone cannot show and realistic images may not be able to portray? You will want to rely on McClouds text for this option.
