Jerome’s Case

< pstyle="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 10pt; ">
Jerome is a 28-year old African American male who lives alone in an apartment.  He tells everyone he meets that he is a rapper and a male model.  He has business cards for each vocation.  He has never recorded a song nor held any modeling job.  He has worked in a series of entry-level jobs to pay his bills.  He usually gets fired for failing to show up to work.  He claims he has modeling gigs or is recording when, in fact, he is not.

< pstyle="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 10pt; ">
Much of Jerome’s spare time is spent at the gym and in nightclubs.  He has had a series of failed relationships with women that typically end when they confront him about his supposed fame.  He has a great deal of difficulty in considering their needs or interests and becomes upset or even abrsive if he is not the focus of the conversation.

The closest Jerome got to a singing audition was when he traveled to a nearby city to audition for American Idol.  He performed for the judges and was quickly told to stop.  When confronted with negative feedback he screamed that they had no idea about music and that he was already a star.  He became so unruly that security had to escort him out.

Jerome has had several arrests for fights in nightclubs.  He tells the police on each occasion that the other guy started it because he was jealous of my fame.   Jerome has never been in treatment nor taken any medications.  When asked if he has any problems, Jerome reports, not me-Just waiting for the world to bow down at my feet

comparative analysis

Order Description

comparative analysis between Sir Gawain and the Green Knight and Sir Orfeo (Middle English romance)

You need to think through WHY the two texts you have chosen invite comparison, and WHAT can be understood anew about both texts, and the subject matter they address, by comparing them to each other. Your paper is not a laundry list of things that are similar and different about two texts, but rather one coherent argument that is proved through comparison particular aspects of these two texts. You’ll want to think of the topic which you want to address in both texts, and then craft an argument that addresses that topic and is proved by careful analysis of the similarities and differences of particular parts of the texts.
Possible topics could include (but are by no means limited to):
• Theoretical study of the treatment of women, or men, or monsters, or minorities, or another sub-group of people in two literary works, arguing for what those differences tell the reader about the works’ historical contexts and the authors’ engagements with those contexts.
• Genre study of texts from two different genres (epic, lyric, drama, narrative) that address a similar topic (like love, death, God, dreams, chivalry, magic), arguing for how the different genres allow varying interpretive possibilities for the experience represented by the texts.
• Historical study of two texts of a similar genre written in two different periods, analyzing the way in which the literary form has changed and how those changes might reflect the context in which the texts were created.
• Issue-based study of two texts that address a similar social or political or religious issue from contrasting viewp01oints, arguing for which text more effectively conveys its viewp01oint
and how the language and style contributes to that effectiveness; or arguing for how the texts reveal their prejudices.
• Interdisciplinary study comparing the way that a similar subject (violence, diversity, piety, oppression, power, perhaps) is handled in a visual object and in a poem or play or narrative, discussing the limitations and benefits of both textual and visual art.
