Poe's Inner and Outer Landscapes: October 30, 2017

Focus: What does Poe teach us about our inner and outer landscapes?

1. Warming up  with three good things and a subject-verb agreement mini quiz

2. Taking a Freudian self-quiz

3. Unraveling Gothic Mystery #2: Repression

4. Trying out a psychoanalytical approach to "The Tell-Tale Heart"; use today's lesson to guide you as you work through the story with your Gothic journal

NEW: IF YOU ARE TYPING YOUR GOTHIC JOURNALS, PLEASE LINK THEM TO A POST ON YOUR BLOG. ALL JOURNALS SHOULD BE ACCESSIBLE THROUGH YOUR BLOG.


HW:
1. Bring index cards to class on Friday; we will do some brainstorming for your big speech and develop some itty bitty warm-ups.

2. Finalize and submit your memoirs (make sure they are double spaced with an MLA heading and title). 
Final drafts are due today by 3:00 pm (I extended the deadline by one day).
We will be submitting them www.turnitin.com, so no need to print.
Also, this Friday, be prepared to share one line, a few lines, or a paragraph from your memoir.

3. If you wish to revise the content of your cultural hysteria essay (not just the grammar), you must conference with me. 
All revisions must be submitted by November 10, which is the end of 12 weeks.
