Is The GRAPES OF WRATH considered a primary source for an essay about the dust bowl?
I am writing a research paper about the Dust Bowl, specifically how it happened and how it could have been prevented. I have to find 7 primary sources. They have been easy to find but I was just curious if I would be able to use The Grapes of wrath as a primary source or would it be considered secondary? Thanks!
Answer: No, unfortunately you would not be able to use it as a primary source. That's because it is fictional, and primary sources have to be a person's account of an event. This means that the person that wrote Grapes of wrath had to be there at the dust bowl, which he wasn't. It might be a secondary source, though. Here is a link from my school's website that has a lot of different databases and what not that will help you find primary and secondary sources:

What would be a good title for my GRAPES OF WRATH research paper?
I am doing a research paper on the Grapes of wrath.
My topic is the connection between the novel and Christianity.
I am thinking of the title The Biblical Joads
But do you guys have any other ideas?
Answer: I am doing the Grapes of wrath too! How funny! umm...the title really isn't that big of a deal it is more of the paper. I would concentrate more on the paper than the Title. I know my teacher doesn't even read the title because it just isn't important. But if you have to have a good one that sounds good to me what you have right there. or Christianity within the Joads or Christianity within the Migrants or something.

I just finished reading The Grapes of wrath and it made me realize how important simple things are to me. How much we take advantage of. I just wanted to see how many of you changed your lifestyles after reading this book or how your view on life was changed.
Answer: The book didn't really change me, before I read the book, I'd already been through hell. What it did do though is what almost all books do, the book let me see that I am more alike than different from other people. Learning that you are more alike than different from other people is one of the greatest gifts reading provides; the other of readings great gifts is... information.

Can a kid read GRAPES OF WRATH and enjoy it?
I hate to read. Plain and simple. But I have to read the Grapes of wrath by John Steinbeck this summer. I dont have the time or the patience to sit and read 20 pages a night before bed or in the morning, so how can I get through this 500+ page book (I also have to other long books, but this is the longest)? Please help, I am desperate! Also is this book enjoyable for a young high-schooler?
Answer: I'm not sure it's possible to like the "Grapes of wrath" or any other Steinbeck story for that matter. His writing is extremely pretentious with an overuse of description at the expense of meaningful narrative. Hopefully you'll get to read "The Once and Future King", "The Odessy", or "Grendel". Those were the only decent books I got to read in highschool.

How does the GRAPES OF WRATH relate to the great depression?
Besides the Dust Bowl in Oklahoma and the foreclosures on homes.. how does the Grapes of wrath relate to the great depression
Answer: It meant that due to lack of water and an abundance of dust that covered everything, farming was not an option. Therefore, the farmers which were mostly subsistence, faced starvation, bank foreclosure and moving. Hence, in the story the farmers move to California where the promise of orange groves is promoted. When they get there they find much unemployment, competition from scarce jobs, starvation, workers camps, hobo camps and migrant workers working for 5 cents or less per day. There is much hardship presented. Also, strike breakers encounter violence from the fact of people accepting LOWER wages.The promise does not fit the reality. It's a very sad story.
The Great Depression was the result of failing banks, no jobs, many out of work, and for a while governmental inaction. Many lost fortunes, some committed suicide. I hope this helps!

What is the main plot to GRAPES OF WRATH?
Can someone please give me a semi short descriptive summary of the Grapes of wrath, anything will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Answer: It is a thoroughly depressing story about a share-cropping family forced from their Oklahoma farm by drought. They head for California, but there are many deaths and disappointments on the way. It is written about the Great Depression and the troubles of the Joad family who arrive in California only to find it is not the land of opportunity, but a gathering place for other misplaced families like themselves. There is an oversupply of labor and extremely low wages. I have never been a fan of John Steinbeck's and although this book won a Pulitzer Prize in 1940 and the Nobel Peace Prize for Literature in 1962, I never could get very far into the book. Nor did I watch the movie. Seeing and reading about the reality of the Great Depression was...well, greatly depressing.

Why is the book The Grapes Wrath written by Steinbeck called The GRAPES OF WRATH? What does it symbolize?
I dont understand what the Grapes represent.
Answer: In Julia Ward Howe's Civil War song, "The Battle Hymn of the Republic", the Lord (God) is releasing his righteous anger at injustice that has been going on for many years; he is "trampling out the vintage" (making wine/blood flow) from the stored Grapes of wrath (the memory and ongoing injustice of slavery, brutality and human suffering).
John Steinbeck used the phrase "The Grapes of wrath" to symbolize the plight of the migrant workers, who had the land they lived on and the homes they were born and lived in blown away, taken away and destroyed in the Great Depression. Traveling West to find work or places to live, they were welcome only as near slaves, not as fellow Americans or brothers. Steinbeck saw the injustice, and also saw the growing anger and discontent of the workers, and their attempts to bring about change, by organizing, by protesting and also by fighting back. By naming his novel "The Grapes of wrath" Steinbeck was comparing the righteous anger and struggle of the migrant workers with the original conflict of the Civil War, and warning, by implication, that a similar bloody conflict could result if change did not come in time.

What were the main issues presented in the The Grapes of wrath, as they relate to the CA experience of the 1930s? Do you think the Joads were able to experience the CA dream? Why or why not?
Answer: "Steinbeck wrote The Grapes of wrath at his home, 16250 Greenwood Lane, in what is now Monte Sereno, California. Set during the Great Depression, the novel focuses on a poor family of sharecroppers, the Joads, driven from their home by drought, economic hardship, and changes in the agriculture industry. In a nearly hopeless situation, they set out for California's Central Valley along with thousands of other "Okies" in search of land, jobs, and dignity." from Wikipedia

Why is the novel, scarlet letter and the GRAPES OF WRATH each considered a great piece of literature?
Why is the novel, scarlet letter and the Grapes of wrath each considered a great piece of literature?
Answer: Usually something is considered a great piece of literature if it speaks to you, regardless of when it was written; that is, it conveys some sort of univeral theme that people understand and can relate to. You just have to decide what that is, for each novel. One example, could be the hypocrisy of the "religious": those people who pretend to have values, but on the side are sleeping with the secretary (or Hester, as in the novel) even though they claim marital fidelity.

How does the current soil erosion problem in the US connect to the GRAPES OF WRATH?
I have to do a power point on it and I dont even know where to start. I know about the dust bowl in the Grapes of wrath but I need help.
Answer: For one thing during the dust bowl the top soil blew away and they were unable to grow food or pasture for animals to feed on.
They removed the naturally growing switch grass that doesn't blow away and holds the soil together and actually made good pasture.
Which is deep rooted and doesn't need a lot of water.
So it was mismanagement of the area, that it didn't need to happen.
They planted trees with early blooms which they have a late freeze that killed the blooms. Now they plant late blooming trees.
With the scare food supply many starved to death.
