Q 1. If everyday life is like the stage, then all of us are actors – as Goffman's article points out. But if this is true, then where is the “real” me? If we are all actors in our daily life, then is everyday life really anything more than a “put-on”? Explain what Goffman means by "expressions given" and "expressions given off". 2. Describe how reality is socially constructed with reference the article "Behavior in Pubic Places". Each of your answers should be around 300 words for a total of approximately 600 words. PS: Goffman's article is hard to read because people usually do not write or think about what he has written. He has written many books and is considered within the top ten sociologists of all times. So give him a sympathetic read and try to understand what he is saying.
