<p>hey guys,
I came across a few tough (for me) essay prompts. Could you guys provide some examples for these prompts? </p>
<h1>1: Can the study of popular culture be as valuable as the study of traditional literary and historical subjects?</h1>
<h1>2: Do people need to know the source of any information before they use it? (i could only think of "12 angry men" for this)</h1>
<h1>3: Is it possible for a society to be fair to everyone?</h1>
<h1>4: Does fame bring happiness, or are people who are not famous more likely to be happy?</h1>
<h1>5: Can people ever be truly original?</h1>
<h1>6: Is compromise always the best way to resolve a conflict?</h1>
<h1>7: Are there benefits to be gained from avoiding the use of modern technology, even when using it would make life easier?</h1>
<h1>8: Does planning interfere with creativity?</h1>
<p>Thanks in advance :)</p>
<p>Here’s some blurbs off the top of my head:</p>
<ol>
<li>If anything, pop culture is a more candid representation of an era’s accomplishments, fears, and climate. For example, the ‘Flapper Era’ of the Roaring Twenties was the quintessence of the happy-go-lucky profligacy before the great crash of the stock market. Examining popular songs, magazines, and it’s remaining witness accounts of this paradigm gleans more insight than reading scholarly books of the era such as The Great Gatsby-- for history’s remnants in traditional and highbrow literature are more likely to be twisted and obfuscated for the purpose of pride and bravado by their authors…</li>
<li>As a famous author once quipped, “I hate it when people become rich and famous and then complain that they’re rich and famous.” All jobs have their negative sides, which in a celebrity’s case, may be scrutiny from the public. However, a celebrity’s lion’s share of wealth from their workplace clearly topples any caveat of their ‘suffering.’ To make the overarching statement that ‘fame is a fickle fortune’ or that ‘fame prevents happiness’ is an ill-conceived and narrow-minded view.<br></li>
