Relate commentary from Krakauer and his interviews with the people of Alaska concerning their feelings about McCandless and his bold expedition into the wilderness to London’s symbolic depiction of man’s personal arrogance and disregard for the tremendous power of nature. Conduct research and carefully select two articles from the internet that illustrate this apparent disconnection of human beings from their appropriate place in nature (man’s position in the grand scheme of life). The articles should illustrate the phenomenon recounted by Krakauer, London, Emerson, and Thoreau and support the claim that mankind has become arrogant and has suffered and incurred damage or inflicted damage because of this lapse in humility. Students will generate a claim/thesis statement and an argument that effectively supports the claim by citing multiple examples of the phenomenon.
