A creative work is often influenced by its historical context. If a novel or poem that is influenced by its historical context were written at a different time, characters, settings, conflicts, and themes would likely change. Choose a novel or poem with which you are familiar and explain how the historical context shapes the work. Identify a new historical context for your chosen novel. Discuss three specific ways that the creative work would change if the historical context were altered. Your response should be fully developed in a minimum of two paragraphs.
