Write an analysis for each of the three texts you chose to read from this module using the correct set of genre module questions below. You will number each question before answering it. For each the three texts you use, you will start your answers with the number 1.

Texts:

– HER TONGUE by Henry Arthur Jones ( http://one-act-plays.com/comedies/her_tongue.html )

– THE BOOR by: Anton Chekhov ( http://www.online-literature.com/anton_chekhov/the… )

– DEBIT AND CREDIT by August Strindberg (http://ww2.one-act-plays.com/dramas/debit_and_cred… )

If drama, answer these questions/prompts:
The playwright’s name, nationality, and dates
The title of the play and the date of its first performance
The central character, with a brief description that includes leading traits
Other characters, also described
The scene or scenes and, if the play does not take place in the present, the time of its action
The major dramatic question (some conflict whose outcome we wonder about, some uncertainty to whose resolution we look forward)
A brief summary of the play’s principal events, in the order the playwright presents them (in each act or scene)
The tone of the play, playwright’s apparent feelings toward the characters or what happens to them
The language spoken in the play (does language indicate a character’s background or place of birth?; brief quotations will be valuable)
In a sentence, try to sum up the play’s central them (but plays often contain more themes than one)
Any symbols you notice, and believe to matter. What do they suggest?
What was your overall impression of the text?
What is one question you have about the text overall?
