When commenting on The Jungle, the social commentator Randolph Bourne described the American time period in which Sinclair wrote as a period
when a whole people" woke up "into a modern day which they had overslept...they had become acutely aware of the evils of the society in which
they had slumbered and they snatched at one after the other idea, programme, movement, ideal, to uplift them out of the slough in which they had
slept."
Sinclair's novel The Jungle had powerful political effects, resulting in the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906. Explain how graphic depictions like
those found in Chapter 14 impact an audience and achieve a purpose, such as changes to law. Cite specific and thorough evidence to support your
explanation.
