Reading Quiz 2: Sunjata
Download this document and then, underneath each question, type your answer. Submit your completed quiz to the appropriate iCollege drop box. The purpose of the quiz is to give credit to students who read the assigned documents posted in iCollege. This means that credit for each item (4 points each) will be awarded only to answers that come from the assigned reading and are spelled as they are in the assigned reading. SPELLING MATTERS. These questions cover ALL the documents on the Sunjata epic posted in iCollege. It’s your job to find out which document contains the answer to each question.
Note: There are countless versions of the Sunjata story available on the internet. NONE of them have ANYTHING to do with your assignments in this class. The ONLY version of the Sunjata story that concerns you for this class is the version from the third edition of the Norton Anthology of World Literature that is synopsized and excerpted and posted in iCollege. Anything you turn in that refers to ANYTHING from another version of the story will receive ZERO credit.
