MOREOVER, he said, “In this essay please address the following issues and questions:
1. What is the biographical background of the author? What other works has she written? (Please note that a separate set of notes will be distributed in class.)
2. In what significant ways, if any, does the written version of the story differ from the film version?
3. Since this is a course in sacramental theology and celebration, how do you think the overall story is related to sacraments in general and, more particularly, the Sacrament of the Eucharist in terms of the following three themes: meal, sacrifice, and grace? (Where is meal/dining, sacrifice, and grace manifested in the story?
4. How is Babette a type of “Christ-figure”?
5. Why and how is the story clearly “gospel-related” especially in light of Jesus’ teachings and practices about the nature of the “kingdom/reign of God” especially as it is manifest around the dining of people at meals (especially those who were considered sinners, impure, outside the Law/Torah)?
6. With which one of the characters do you most and least identify?

PLEASE ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS IN THE ESSAY.
