Learning Goal: I’m working on a writing question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.
Questions:
1. Does Cabeza de Vaca believe he has special powers as a healer? How do you know? Use evidence from the text to support your perspective. (100-150 words)
2. What are the elements of the “Texas Legend” according to AmΓΒ©rico Paredes? In what sources does Paredes say they can be found? Choose another text in the list above and explain how it offers a counter-narrative to (aka a story that goes against) the ideas outlined by the “Texas Legend.” (150-200 words)
