Choose one of the following topics:
1. Show how the narratives of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, Fatal Attraction,and another text of your own choosing reflect Joseph Campbell’s idea that “the real dragonis in you.”

3. The genre of film noiris said to have evolved partly from the popularity of 1930’s gangster films. Show how the villainy of Double Indemnity’s killers and of another text of your own choosing is of a specifically noir type.
