 1) In analyzing the works of 2-3 authors, examine how Modernist literature changes from Victorian literature. What are the values of each respective generation?  Why did this change take place?  Think about the historical events of both eras.  

2) Stream of Consciousness is a major trope of modernist literature.  Analyze the use of this literary tool in the works of Conrad and Eliot and how it reflects the early twentieth century.

3) Modernism was marked by a change in philosophical, psychological, and social thought.  Choose one or two of these changes and show how they come to be manifested in the works of a couple modernist writers (Yeats, Eliot, Conrad).
