Essay Topics

1.

Through his journey, Lázaro loses his naivete and sees the world as it really is, a society where people criticize and judge others but cannot see their own faults. In a three paragraph essay, show how Lázaro is naive, when he begins to change, and how he becomes like others without knowing it himself.

2.

Lázaro, who is really a mouthpiece for the author’s opinions, sees that everyone seems to want fame and fortune without having to work for it. Do you see any similarities between Lázaro’s culture in 6th-century Spain and modern culture today? Write an essay using examples from Lázaro’s story to demonstrate where you see these similarities in today’s world.

3.

Despite the physical and mental abuse in the story, as well as the social and religious hypocrisy, the novel does show moments of compassion. Using examples from the text, write an essay detailing three separate scenes in which Lázaro expresses compassion or receives compassion from others.
