Jose R. Lopez Morin’s article is about the life of Americo Paredes. The article tells how Paredes got started in defining the Mexican culture, writing books, poetry, and stories about the culture. Morin and two other men had the chance to interview Paredes. In the interview they discussed why Paredes did not like the way the United States was putting a bad image on Mexicans and the way they were treated. This article is very useful, because it talks about why he wrote his books and did the works that he did.
He teaches the U.S. history surveys, Nevada History, American Constitutional History, The Civil War, and History of Las Vegas. For UNLV’s Honors College, he teaches advanced undergraduate seminars on those topics. His books on the Civil War era are Freedom, Union, and Power: Lincoln and His Party during the Civil War (Fordham University Press, 2004), Politics and America in Crisis: The Coming of the Civil War (ABC-CLIO, 2010), and Lincoln and the Election of 1860 (Southern Illinois University Press, 2011).

In a paragraph, discuss how these three essays meet the criteria for literary nonfiction. Use specific information from the content of the unit and quotations from the readings.

The first essay written by Jaschik meets the criteria for literary nonfiction because it discusses the huge controversy of plagiarism and how it affects literature today.

Martinez 1 Geoffrey Martinez Professor Sprague English 101, Paper 1, Section # 8043 28 September 2010 “The Pursuit of a Misapprehended American Dream” F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby is a fine novel which encloses in a metaphoric manner the demoralized concept of the American dream. This paper starts by explaining and illustrating what the American dream is. Next, it describes and exemplifies how the dream is perceived throughout the novel. Finally, it reveals how the dream is represented throughout three characters of the novel. The American dream is what this country represents so it is of vital importance to understand its significance to avoid misinterpretations.
In turn, this leads to an awakening or unveiling. Through examining intertextual form and narrative voice, this essay will explore how silences, secrets and mysteries lead the protagonists to epiphanies about themselves and their places in the construction of their communities. Silences arise when there is something unspoken yet they do not exclude information being implied or otherwise non-verbally transmitted. One such example of silences implying information to the reader is through Alice Munro’s use of intertextuality in “Open Secrets”. By interspersing ballad poems throughout the text yet leaving them unaddressed by the characters, Munro creates silences between the reader and the world in her story.
