Hi Class,

Again, I was very impressed by your contributions today! I’m hoping for more of the same next week.

REMEMBER:  We have class on Tuesday and Wednesday of next. There is no school on Monday (Yom Kippur). Tuesday follows a Monday schedule. So I will see you at 11:30am on Tuesday, Sept. 29.

Homework:

Finish reading Jekyll and Hyde. The ending might be confusing, so be sure to reserve adequate time to read, reread, and take notes. Be sure the think about the concepts that we have been working with over the past few weeks, especially irony, paradox, allegory, frame, focal point, focalizer, and, of course, redemption.

Then write and post Gothic Coffeehouse Post #3. Please note the new menu category: Coffeehouse #3. For this post, consider which characters, if any, are redeemed. (what is the redemption about? and who does the redeeming?) 300 words total.

 

Best,

Prof. Scanlan
