Kulturraumstudien USA, Homework for December 19th

 For homework, please: 

- read as much as you can from Civil Disobedience by Henry David Thoreau (read at least the last two slides from today's presentation): Civil Disobedience by Henry David Thoreau (virginia.edu) Identify at least one statement in the text that surprises and/or interests you (bear in mind that this text inspired a number of leaders in more recent history such as Martin Luther King Jr. and Mahatma Gandhi). 

- have a look at the terms used on the second slide of today's presentation and make sure that you can come up with examples for each of them (the slides from December 5th might be of help here). Bring in any questions you have about these terms to our next class.
