The Apple Today.
Written over a hundred years ago, The Apple arguably still resonates today not only as a historical piece of writing that provides a window into a past era but also as a piece of writing that still speaks to tensions within our own world today. Write an approximately 850 word essay that considers The Apple from the perspective of an audience today. For your essay choose one of the sisters and discuss how her story is still relevant and still has the ability to prompt a modern audience to consider tensions within its own time. Is her story more relevant today than her sister’s? [In other words – is this play really that dated? Is it only about the past? The plays that are remembered most throughout time are those that continue to be relevant in some fashion.]
