2. Although romanticism was the movement that, theoretically, ended around 1870, it is still a popular writing style today. Why do you think this is? Use the elements of romanticism to explain. What examples of romantic literature have been produced in the last 25 years?
3. What examples of social activism through literature have we studied this term? How effective (or not) were these texts at helping to shape the current social climate of America?

6. What are the difference between modernism and postmodernism and post-postmodernism? What movement(s) would you say are most notable today? Do you think these movements were more or less successful than other literary movements we studied? Why or why not?
