Photographic images are not objective representations of reality

Discuss this theory and use examples both from our reading and your current experience to support or refute it.

Answer the following questions in complete sentences on your own paper. Provide quotations (with
page/line numbers) from the story to support your answers.
1. Why has Jackson chosen common people for her characters? Could she have chosen characters from
other levels of sophistication with the same effect? What is the irony of the tone of this story?
2. What seems to have been the original purpose of the lottery? What do people believe about it?
3. Is it important that the original paraphernalia for the lottery had been lost? What do you suppose the
original ceremony was like? Why have some of the villages given up this practice? Why hasn’t this one?
4. What is the significance of Tessie’s final scream, “It isn’t fair, it isn’t right”? What aspect of the lottery
does she explicitly challenge; what aspect goes unquestioned?
5. This is a different sort of story when you read it for the second time. What elements (such as Mrs.
Hutchinson’s attempt to have her daughter, Eva, draw with the family) might take on a different meaning
the second time through?
6. Some critics insist that the story has an added symbolic meaning. Do you agree? If so, what is Shirley
Jackson trying to tell us about ourselves? (Hint: Consider that this story was written during the height of
the rise of Communism and the Soviet Union.)

such actions? How would you respond to cultures that are different from ours that perform “strange”
rituals?
