Love...who needs it anyway? You can bet that Ethan and Mattie asked themselves that often in their misery. Let's face it, who hasn't commiserated with a pint of Ben & Jerry's over twarted love? Or maybe you've battled Mortal Combat to defeat those feelings of frustration. Either way, most of us have suffered and survived love lost, love unrequited, or love discombobulated at some point.
This webquest will lead you on a journey to explore Edith Wharton's past and marriage data and divorce statistics. Before you are done you will investigate your ideal dating partner and write a paper discussing why fools fall in love. Ok so maybe you won't shed light on cupid's mysterious ways, but you will reveal with supporting evidence what you believe Wharton is saying about love.
