Select a short story that you have read in this course. Then, select a piece from another artistic medium—an image such as a painting or mural; music such as a song or symphony; a sculpture—that represents the same subject or an important scene in the story. Write a 4-5 paragraph essay comparing and contrasting the text of the story and the other artistic medium. In what ways are the two similar? In what ways are they different?
