Ok. So I am little confused on what we are suppose to be writing about for or last and final essay. According to our syllabus we should write an analytic review on one of the stories from “The Bloody Chamber”. We can use theoretical lens texts we have read in this class or other texts. I guess my question is about what type of analysis we are doing. Is this paper similar to the first paper where we did a close reading of a fairytale and determined what it meant for the rest of the story? The paper itself is only suppose to be four to five pages, so we should not have to research. Still, though, I am not sure how we are suppose to approach the topic of this paper.
i don’t know for sure, but my guess is that it’s similar to the first essay. Does anyone know how long the PD has to be for tuesday?
I don’t think it’s similar to the first essay. It sounds more like we are writing a review of one of the stories considering we’re reading reviews from the New York Times, etc. It sounds pretty interesting.
Yeah, I viewed this essay as one where we do a little bit of reading of outside texts, but mostly we analyze a story and write a review of it, similar to something in the NYT. I think it’s supposed to appeal to a broad audience of people that might be interested in the book, not a scholarly group that’s interested in structure and stuff like that.
