In “Literature as Equipment for Living” Kenneth Burke presents his perspective on the role and function of proverbs and literature. Both, he says, single out “a pattern of experience that is sufficiently representative of our social structure, that recurs sufficiently often... for people to need a word for it and to adopt an attitude towards it”. Be sure to analyze this point. After doing so, your task will be to discuss a text that has provided you with such equipment for living— that is, a book that sizes up a particular situation, adopts a specific attitude towards it, and gives advice for dealing with it. Be sure to summarize as necessary and to provide specific details on the situation, attitude, and lesson.
