choose a body of creative writing, theater, music, film, etc. created in the USA in a language other than English. For example, you may select the Norwegian comic strip in English translation published by the University of Iowa Press, “More Han Ola Og Han Per”. You are to analyze the style and content and issues exemplified by this cultural corpus and include a complete bibliographic reference to this source (identifying both the original and the english translation)
This is then to be compared with your analysis of the short story collection “New Yorkish” You are to demonstrate for both sources with specific reference and quotes that you understand the texts. How are the collections similar, how are they different? Do they seem similar to creative literature and arts in English with which you are familiar? How do they serve specific ethnic group? How do they serve the general American Culture?
