<p>The painting, by Grant Wood, was completed in 1930 and has become a classic of the American arts, a painting many people recognize <u>at first glance</u>. It has also entered popular and <u>mainstream culture</u>, through its many parodies and adaptations.</p>
<p>In the painting <em>American Gothic</em>, we can see a couple <u>in the foreground</u>. The man looks older than the woman, we can imagine he is either her father or her husband. They are dressed in <u>conservative</u> clothes. The man is wearing a white shirt, blue jeans overalls and a black jacket. It may seem like a strange mix, because he is wearing work clothes and a smart jacket at the same time. He is holding a pitchfork upright, in his right hand. He may just be back from the <u>fields</u>. The woman is wearing a black dress with a white collar and a black apron with small flowers. She is also wearing a medallion. They may be getting ready to go to church, the man finishing a last minute task before leaving, while the woman only needs to take her apron off. In the background, we can see their house: it is a white wooden house with pointed windows, in the gothic style; the painting gets its name from the house, <u>nickamed</u> "the gothic house".</p>
<p>The couple looks <u>glum</u>/sad/<u>dejected</u>/unhappy. We can maybe link their state of mind to the date of the painting, which was finished in 1930. Between 1929 and 1939, the Great Depression struck the United States, and more harshly rural areas. Many farmers lost their lands, as their farms were repossessed by the banks and they were sent on the roads. We can imagine this rural couple, in the early years of the Depression, worried about their possessions.</p>Poem "The New Colossus"urn:md5:7b01aa9b58375c3438101fa173e411ad2018-02-12T18:00:00+01:002018-03-15T22:58:15+01:00Blanchard Lucie (Lycée Michelet, Vanves (92))immigration to the USApoemspaces and exchangesSpaces and exchangesStatue of Liberty<p>Text of Emma Lazarus's poem, "The New Colossus", written in 1883 and engraved on a bronze plaque on the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty.</p> <p style="margin-left:11.35pt;"><strong>The New Colossus</strong></p>
<p style="margin-left:11.35pt;">Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,</p>
<p style="margin-left:11.35pt;">With conquering limbs astride from land to land;</p>
<p style="margin-left:11.35pt;">Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand</p>
<p style="margin-left:11.35pt;">A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame</p>
<p style="margin-left:11.35pt;">Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name</p>
<p style="margin-left:11.35pt;">Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand</p>
<p style="margin-left:11.35pt;">Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command</p>
<p style="margin-left:11.35pt;">The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11.35pt;">“Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she</p>
<p style="margin-left:11.35pt;">With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,</p>
<p style="margin-left:11.35pt;">Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,</p>
<p style="margin-left:11.35pt;">The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11.35pt;">Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,</p>
<p style="margin-left:11.35pt;">I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”</p>
<p>Emma Lazarus (1883)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This poem, and the symbol it stands for, are often adapted and used in speeches, cartoons, movies and others. See the cartoon below as an example.</p>

You can use them as additional documents for your synthesis. Don't forget that an editorial cartoon is a simple and quick way to convey a message. Always ask the question of the aim of its author, and of his/her possible bias.</p>
