The rival poet enters the scene to stir things up with the narrator’s fair lord. How would you characterize the poet’s reaction to the thought of losing his fair lord to another?
A: A close analysis of the text on hand is crucial for this essay. The student should pick a reaction – jealousy, perhaps, or disdain – and support it with specific textual evidence. Perhaps the reaction suggests a broader emotion or mentality: pride (wounded in this case), greed (thwarted), helplessness…
Choose one of the three recurring characters in the sonnets – the fair lord, the rival poet, or the dark lady – and argue the case for his or her real-world identity. Adopt a candidate who has already been proposed, assessing the evidence for yourself – or posit a new possibility.
A: This question demands careful historical research, coupled with close literary analysis. Techniques of comparative literature will come in handy; for example, when weighing the validity of the Christopher Marlowe claim, it behooves the student to not only study Marlowe’s life and place in history, but his work as well – and the ways in which Shakespeare’s writing might draw from, comment on, or question his.

Modern scholarship divides the sonnets into two main groups: the fair lord sonnets (1-126) and the dark lady sonnets (127-154). Do you agree with this division?
A: An answer to this question may wish to focus on the fair lord sonnets, as they offer more room for creativity. It is also worth questioning whether any subdivisions might be identified within the aforementioned divisions? Finally, what do these sorts of divisions mean for the scholar? Do they simplify too much, or are they useful tools for analysis?

Mexico entered the lost decade of the 1980s with its economy in shambles and its political consensus under increasing pressure. The crisis would continue through the 1990s and even up to the present day. What economic challenges did Mexico face after 1982 and how did the state attempt to deal with them? What political difficulties confronted the one-party system under the PRI? How would the state address the major social problems (e.g., crime, drugs, migration, etc.) that Mexico would experience? Did the Revolution end with the fall of the perfect dictatorship in 2000 as some have claimed or does it still remain alive (explain)?
