<p>The essay question is “Do people have to be highly competitive to succeed?”</p>
<p>Would this literature example be a stretch?:</p>
<p>How Claudius had to poison senior Hamlet and marry Gertrude to become head of Denmark?</p>
<p>Seems ok to me. REally, any example is fine as long as u tie it to the prompt well.</p>
<p>My example would have been filmmaker Martin Scorsese who instead of being fiercely competetive, worked cooperatively with other filmmakers and shared ideas to achieve the success he wanted.</p>
<p>Not necessarily pertaining to this subject matter, but what other examples do you have?</p>
<p>I have this so far:</p>
<p>History:
Civil Rights Era
Holocaust
World War I
World War II
Martha Stewart</p>
<p>Literature:
The Scarlet Letter
The Great Gatsby
Frakenstein
Hamlet
The Count of Monte Cristo</p>
<p>Any more History/Current Events?</p>
<p>yourself maybe
steve jobs/apple
japan in post ww2
athletes (pick one)</p>
<p>Hitler would be a good example</p>
