Wit Essay Prompts
Choose one of the following prompts and write about Wit (and be brilliant because we both know you can be): Prompt A: In Wit, some of the most significant events are mental or psychological: for example, awakenings, discoveries, or changes in consciousness. In a well-organized essay, describe how the author manages to give these internal events the sense of excitement, suspense, and climax usually associated with external action. Do not merely summarize the plot. Prompt C: Often in a work of literature there emerges a ‘key’ scene that presents an important thematic moment, or action, or decision around which the rest of the work seems to be built; everything else in the work either leads up to that scene or away from it. Describe one such scene from Wit; then show with specific examples from the work as a whole that the scene you have described is the thematic center of the play. Do not merely summarize the plot.
