According to Krumholz, Morrison’s novel "adapts techniques from modernist novels, such as the fragmentation of the plot and shifting narrative voice, to compel the reader to actively construct an interpretive framework" (109). How does the novel specifically address issues of gender, writing and power? How does the structure and style of the novel give voice to "the thoughts of the women of 124, unspeakable thoughts, unspoken" (Beloved 199)?
The novel addresses the issues of gender, writing, and power through specific stylistic choices to alter our perspectives on the characters. Within the book, Morrison includes chapters that are specifically written to develop Paul D's character. She includes details of how he was treated and how hat affected him to think he wasn't a true man. The people at Sweet Home treated him to the point where he thought he was not human enough or man enough. So, we see him continue to question his manhood and who exactly is Paul D. With writing, the reader picks up on Morrison's use of flashbacks, stream of consciousness, and memories that further develop our views on the characters. For structure and style and how it gives a voice to the women at the 124 house, it makes the reader second guess their views on the main 3 women. We see a power shift between Sethe and Beloved because she craved to be Sethe and drained Sethe of her life. Denver to everyone else was a child and had been isolated by Sethe because she didn't want Denver to be affected by the outside world and Sethe's suppressed memories. But, we saw Denver overcome her struggles and gained enough power to be a hero and go into the real world to save her community. Morrison styled her words to portray Sethe as as strong woman, Denver as a heroic figure who prevailed through the trauma of the past. But Beloved was different. Morrison's stylistic choices proved Beloved to be a character who was the result of the effects that slavery has on a person. She was power hungry and Sethe was her target because Sethe was the one who betrayed her. But, in reality form Sethe's point of view, it was her only option because she loved her children so much.]]> 2020-12-07 18:38:24 UTC https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995429422 Assessments and Reflections 1000044163 https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995429923 Denver or Paul D One-Pager (https://docs.google.com/document/d/13Re8bLvAFPWJ7dzlyQpq9rRUB3_oZgX7c_BfisZbrSc/edit)

Be detailed in how it connects with global issues and thematic and stylistic ideas to other works.
Beloved connects with TTTC with the idea of memories and the effects of them, but also how the story is told is important. Global issues include identity and it being affected by traumatic pasts and the memories that come with it. Main idea I would connect is the memories. With Hughes' poems and Beloved, I would connect how the past affects people. The importance of how the past affects people. Memories surface and even maybe the stylistic choices. Hughes main a lot of different stylistic choices in their poems, so I could connect how it written affects how the reader would perceive the text; also include identity and past memories creeping up and ruining a person's lifestyle.

How does Beloved connect to our world today?
Beloved connects to our world today by memories. Beloved focuses on past memories resurfacing and how remembering affects people to the point of breaking or even how such traumatic experiences change our actions. Like today, past memories affect people so much, someone like Justin Bieber changed. He changed his ways and is in a better place because the past crept up, but he managed to not let the past affect him.]]> 2020-12-07 18:38:35 UTC https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995430334 Hexagonal Harkness Notes 1000044163 https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995430678 Attach your Google Slide and notes for your Hexagonal Harkness here.]]> 2020-12-07 18:38:39 UTC https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995430678 Global Issues 1000044163 https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995431105 What were some global issues you explored in Beloved? Consider memory, trauma, importance of community, etc. The more detailed you are, the more useful this will be for your IO.
Main global issues I explored was identity and the effects of memories that affects a person's identity. Memory is a repeated idea in Beloved, along with trauma. This heavily affected how all the characters viewed themselves. It altered their actions, their thought processes, and how they may have reacted to situations. Another one would be community. This issue was represented in Baby Suggs and Denver. Denver and Baby Suggs experienced trauma that changed them which then changed the communities perspective of them. The community affected both of them to think badly of themselves. Baby Suggs went into a depression, while Denver became heroic.]]> 2020-12-07 18:38:44 UTC https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995431105 Extracts 1000044163 https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995431509 Attach your two 40 lined extracts you used for your Mock IO as well as any other 40 line extracts you might want to use for your real IO in the future.]]> 2020-12-07 18:38:49 UTC https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995431509 Areas of Exploration 1000044163 https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995432007 Readers, Writers, and Texts

  1. How does the structure or style of a literary text affect meaning? Consider how Morrison's stream-of-consciousness, shifting points of view, and use of analepsis and prolepsis impact the meaning of the novel.
Structure and style of a literary text affects meaning with how the major elements of a story is presented. Morrison developed the characters so in depth before getting to the major turning points in the book and used stream of consciousness to do so. The audience is able to understand characters better and why it may have happened. This helps the reader to understand other events that happen later in the book and give reasoning to a characters decision.

Time and Space

  1. How important is cultural or historical context to the production and reception of a literary text? Consider the story of Margaret Garner, the Fugitive Slave Act, and other historical and cultural phenomena and how that has impacted the creation and reception of Beloved.
Cultural and historical context is important to the production of a text because then the audience knows the background to a possible sensitive subject that appears in the text. With the story of Margaret Garner, it is essential to know the historical context because of the delicate subject of slavery. Knowing why Margaret did what she did sheds light on how someone might view her in the story of Beloved. Then the creation of Beloved will make sense to readers and then they will understand Morrison's thought process of developing the characters the way she did.

I think humans read and write stories because of their impact emotionally. As a young child, we are read stories, we write, we compose and create ideas from things we learn. A child will heavily be impacted by a story that relates to them. That could be an emotional attachment which is important. It makes us feel comfortable and safe. When we grow up, we feed into our sensitive sides and we want to spark creativity amongst others and stories is the way to do it. I read because it makes me feel things. I can read any genre and feel different emotions and fall in love with the characters. Writing is the same. To write a character, it takes an individuals creativity and that stems from what we have learned in the past. Emotions affect how we write the characters and what we want to portray to an audience.

TTTC was our first real start to the year and this is written later in the semester, so Beloved. After reading Beloved, I realized how similar they are with the shared idea of the effects memories have on people.


How does TTTC connect to our world today?
TTTC connects to our world today with the idea of memories. Anyone who experiences trauma, will have bad memories of it. Like me. I watched my parents divorce and now sometimes thinking of them hurts me because they were never happy. Also, memories hurt. They bring up bad stuff we want to forget. If famous people were to do an interview and the host brings up a past relationship of course the person is going to go through a tough time talking about the past; good or bad memories.]]> 2020-12-07 19:49:44 UTC https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995776168 Harkness Notes 1000044163 https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995776603 Reflection
How did you do during the Harkness discussions?
I did good on the harkness discussions. Not my best, but it was our fist ones so I felt a little nervous. It was hard to make a good impression and was hard to tell how I would do in the future.

Notes
Ideas discussed I want to remember:
Memories have a huge impact on people, not just soldiers. Anyone who goes through traumatic experiences, will have a hard time dealing with memories from the past. Obviously, good storytelling will reveal how traumatic the memories truly are. ]]> 2020-12-07 19:49:49 UTC https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995776603 Global Issues 1000044163 https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995777030 Brainstorm some global issues developed from TTTC.

1. Why and how do we study literature? Why do we study TTTC?
We study literature so that we appreciate the story and learn the power it has on people. We study TTTC because it shows the power of storytelling. This book broadens our imagination and allows us to feel the story come alive.


2. How are we affected by literary texts in various ways? How are we impacted by TTTC?
We are affected by literary texts because we think of new ideas, feelings, and concepts. Depending on the story of the text it can affect our emotional state because of our background. We are impacted by TTTC because it gives us a new perspective on memories and the way storytelling is told. We feel so many more emotions just because of the way the story is told.


3. In what ways is meaning constructed, negotiated, expressed and interpreted in TTTC?
Meaning is constructed, negotiated, expressed, and interpreted in TTTC by the way the author told the story. He included many forms of perspective to make us understand the characters. The author wrote the chapters in a way where he developed the characters and we see what the impact of their deaths did on O'Brien.


4. How does the structure of style of TTTC affect its meaning?
The structure of style of TTTC affects its meaning by his word and syntax structure to show how important storytelling and memories are told. In the first chapter, in simple words it is about what all the soldiers carried with them. But, O'Brien made it have a deeper meaning because they didn't just have the responsibility of materialistic things but also leadership responsibilities and carrying the weight of memories and each other. With his style choices we can see a huge deal O'Brien felt when composing this to prove his main ideas.

The poetry gave insight on the black community in Harlem that it was tough. A community you'd think would be safe, but many black people still facing social injustices. Though, the city is a celebration area and was even back then during the Reconstruction period. A place of happiness and joy.

How does art reflect the community from which it comes?
Art reflects the community from which it comes by it showing progress. Art can reflect emotions and events that have happened in a community. The art could show that after hardships, something beautiful happened and this would portray a strong community. ]]> 2020-12-07 19:50:13 UTC https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995778372 Assessments and Reflections 1000044163 https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995778946 Hughes Writing Portfolio Week 1 (https://docs.google.com/document/d/18LyKQIDrd7bp5rLfA-fmGDqxPy2f2SmxyvISx4xscH8/edit)

A lot of his poems centered around rivers and their impact on the lives of black people. There was connections of black people not feeling equal and their call out to the reader about the realities going on in their lives.

How does Hughes' poems connect to other works we've read?
Hughes' poems connects to TTTC because I did notice the repetition of memories in the stories. The idea of memories having an impact. But, mostly I would say the past. The poems focus on the past and say that racism is affecting them and then in TTTC it's not about slavery, it's the past creeping up and those memories.

How does Hughes' poetry connect to our world today?
Hughe's poetry connects to our world today with the ongoing topic of slavery and racism. Today there is still racism that exists everywhere in the world. It is a sensitive topic to talk about. Though, these poems are a good example of presenting the topic and learning about it without being disrespectful of the topic.]]> 2020-12-07 19:50:27 UTC https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995779455 Harkness Notes 1000044163 https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/995779864 Reflection

Choose 3 out of these 6 questions to answer and reflect on how it relates to our reading and understanding of Hughes' work.

  1. How important is cultural or historical context to the production and reception of a literary text? Cultural and historical context is extremely important to the production of a literary text because of how sensitive the past is. If someone were to write about slavery, like Hughes did, knowing about why slavery was terrible and made a huge impact on people changes your views on the subject. We learn to be respectful so we don't hurt others.
  2. How do we approach literary texts from different times and cultures to our own? We approach literary text from different times by researching the text prior to reading. We read the thinking that went into making that text. Then we can understand the cultures and past so we don't end up hurting someone. 
  3. To what extent do literary texts offer insight into another culture?
  4. How does the meaning and impact of a literary text change over time? The meaning and impact of a literary text changes over time because of different events happening over the years. For someone to write a book on slavery in the 60s, it may still have been a sensitive time and people would be upset that there was a group of people trying to make others understand the effects of racism. But now, today in society talking about a book on slavery, there is more understanding of the situation More people are respectful of the history and they want to appreciate the book and not be negative about it. 
  5. How do literary texts reflect, represent or form a part of cultural practices? 
  6. How does language represent social distinctions and identities?

Be detailed in how it connects with global issues and thematic and stylistic ideas to other works.
Chronicle connects to TTTC. In Chronicle there are gender norms between the characters Angela Vicario and Bayardo San Roman. He as a man had expectations for his woman and she betrayed him by not being a virgin. He left trying to get away but he eventually cam back. In TTTC, Jimmy Cross has mixed feelings about his girl Martha. He wonders if she was a virgin but holds on. Sort of a toxicity environment parallel between both;  writes letters. Metaphors, Symbolism of love letters. Motif, serious tone but also misguided of love.

How does Chronicle connect to our world today?
Chronicle connects to our world today with the continuation of traditional values. In certain cultures and religions there are arranged marriages. Or gender norms of how women who don't want kids or are not married by a certain time are considered weird and treated badly for their decisions. Or how men are able to express love and emotion the same way women can. If a man doesn't present themselves with masculine energy they are seen as weak and are viewed as too 'feminine'. Just like women can't be too masculine or its considered immoral as well.]]> 2021-04-09 16:31:11 UTC https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/1400660147 Harkness Notes 1000044163 https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/1400663524 Attach any of your Harkness notes here.

Consider honor, morality, perspective, fate, gender norms etc. The more detailed you are, the more useful this will be for your IO.
In Chronicle I explored the global issues of gender norms and honor. I think it was important to highlight how important honor is for people in Latin American culture. Especially, the Vicario twins; they show how even they were hurt by the fact their sister was not a virgin and Santiago took itore she was married. So, they went above and beyond to show how serious they were. Also for gender norms. the relationship between Angela Vicario and Bayardo shows how toxic the traditional rules and values are of relationships in their culture. Bayardo felt betrayed, Angela felt embarassed. How Angela felt the need to write letters to him and how Bayardo felt the need to go back to her; all because of them feeling wrong and immoral because they broke the "rules."]]> 2021-04-09 16:33:10 UTC https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/1400668144 Extracts 1000044163 https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/1400676230

    1. How does Chronicle offer insight into Columbian culture? Consider what we've learned about with machismo, marianismo, honor and the impact of colonialism.
    Chronicle offers insight into columbian culture with the way the author presents marianismo, machismo, honor, and colonialism with the characters and situations. Marquez shows how the Vicario Twins killed Santiago in Honor of showing their machismo. It shows how honor is valued in columbian culture and it portrays how people will go to any length to prove they have honor or machismo. With marianismo we the audience can see how Angela Vicario even after being rejected by Bayardo, she wanted to write letter even though she knew he probably didn't love her back. In columbian culture, an ideal/pure woman is desired by men, so when Bayardo left because he felt betrayed, she also became a little depressed. It is heavily portrayed throughout the book that if there was a man character he had to keep up with the traditional ways of a man which is machismo, having honor, and being a man. For women, we see how most of the characters needed to fit into marianismo, being pure, and obeying their men. The impact of colonialism is seen by how most Latin American governments might be corrupt and people are changing their ways, but European countries start controlling. These European countries were controlling and taking away the Latin American identity and culture they relied on.

Be detailed in how it connects with global issues and thematic and stylistic ideas to other works.
    A&A connects to Beloved with the way both were affected by. their communities. Delbo explores the ways in which a person, herself, has been affected in a positive way because of her sisterhood. She had friends in the camps that helped have a hopeful mentality on surviving. Morrison explores the ways in which Baby Suggs was affected by her negative community in which they rejected her for being too nice and they were jealous of her for being like "god." Both authors use sad and happy tone for each situation (delbo vs baby suggs). Symbolism, happy, sad diction.

    How does Auschwitz connect to our world today?
    Auschwitz connects to our world today with how uighur muslims are being treated by the Chinese government. In today's society there is a holocaust happening and not many people know. Like how its not all of China but a select number of people, like the Nazis, that are mass murdering a minority group, uighur muslims vs the Jews. Both groups were/still are being de-humanized for who they are.]]>     2021-04-09 16:44:58 UTC https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/1400717134     Harkness Notes 1000044163 https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/1400717699 Attach any of your Harkness notes here.   N/A]]> 2021-04-09 16:45:04 UTC https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/1400717699 Global Issues 1000044163 https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/1400718050 What were some global issues you explored in Auschwitz and After? Consider the Hexagonal Harkness we had and some of the global issues you came up with during that discussion.
    Some global issues we explored in A&A were role of community on Delbo/Baby Suggs, objective storytelling Delbo/O'Brien, and Fear/loss of hope environments affecting Delbo/Prisoners and O’Brien/Soldiers. For the first one Delbo had positive effects from her sisterhood helping her and Baby Suggs had negative effects from her community which was the town. The second GI is how Delbo told the audience how her brain lied to her after years of not knowing what was real or not from the ptsd and O'Brien talking about objective storytelling. The third one is how both Delbo and O'Brien were surrounded by fear environments and both were losing hope.

    How are we affected by Delbo's memoir and her imperative for us to "Try to look. Try to see"? How were you affected by Auschwitz and After?
    We are affected by Delbo's memoir by her stylistic choices specifically her choice of brining us back into her real time as she wrote the book. This is her "try to look. Try to see" choice to get us to understand how incredibly weird how she went from being tortured to sitting in a cafe writing this book. We feel confused like her because how could someone believe her new reality was better and not full of death. The numbness she felt because no one would understand that she didn't feel alive even thought she technically survived the camps. After reading Auschwitz and after I am completely saddened by how all of the prisoners were treated. I loved the way Delbo inlcluded untitled, short poems because I could feel the emotion and sadness. Also I felt detached, the short poems were straight to the point and made me stop and think of all the torture they endured. I felt emotionally drained.

Be detailed in how it connects with global issues and thematic and stylistic ideas to other works.
    Persepolis connects to Beloved in the way of how people in power abuse their power to make themselves feel better but the oppressed are affected. So in Persepolis there is the islamic regime affected the people in Iran and forcing them to live life they didn't want to. In return we see how Marjane was affected because she was introduced to so many new things, then she went on a bender and went crazy. In Beloved we see how slaveholders in the slavery institution used there "superior" mentality to make black people think they were the problem. In return, we see how black people were not able to love themselves because they couldn't feel happiness from themselves. There is a lot of sad and ominous tones. Metaphors of people in power and how they were affected. Satrapi has splash panels on certain pages that portray the affects from the islamic regime and their power abuse.

    How does Persepolis connect to our world today?
    Persepolis connects to our world today with religious suppression. There are so many religions that force people to act a certain way or wear certain clothing. Of course, this is what religion is, but there is a way to express yourself while still being loyal to the religion. There is also injustice and wars that a lot of children experience in some countries. Sometimes these children might grow and have a crazy phase just like Marjane because they couldn't decipher right form wrong, or are not able to act "right" because they were oppressed by certain beliefs. Also gender norms which was presented in Persepolis. Many women today are still pressured into wearing more conservative clothing because of their religion or because they are told by someone else. Women can't express themselves freely because they might be seen as a "slut." This is hypocritical because for a man to show off skin or their bare chest it's "normal" but for a women to show her stomach or collar bone or a lot of cleavage it is wrong. In Persepolis, women had to change how they dressed which meant wearing clothing that covered their whole body. How terrible for these women. Nowadays is accepted sometimes by people and other times people are very rude to those that do not follow the "right" way to dress. ]]>     2021-06-06 01:51:53 UTC https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/1587428856     Harkness Notes 1000044163 https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/1587428889 Attach any of your Harkness notes here.

Consider the Harkness discussion and other ideas that came up during class discussion.
    Some global issues I explored in Persepolis were different abusing power affects people, how education is taught, heroism, how justice is portrayed in different scenarios. My favorite is power abuse because I think its an important subject and global issue with the way people in power think they can just control a group of people and not expect those being hurt to be affected. Some people are so evil and and do not have any regard for other people.]]>     2021-06-06 01:52:03 UTC https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/1587428944     Extracts 1000044163 https://padlet.com/1000044163/Bookmarks/wish/1587428976

    How valid is the notion of a "classic" literary text? What makes Persepolis "literary" even though it is a graphic novel?
    A "classic" literary text becomes valid by how it impacts peoples' lives. "Classic" is subjective; with a piece like Persepolis, its important to highlight that its not a murder, mystery, or rom/com, its about the life of a woman who was young in times of war and grew up in a modern country, Austria, and had to go through so much. It's personal and so real and anyone who reads it can feel a connection to the story. What makes Persepolis "literary" even though it is a graphic novel is the fact it still includes speech (text), metaphors, symbolism, tone, mood, diction, and tone shifts. She includes all the factors that make a literary book a book. She doesn't just use panels and other graphic novel terms that makes a graphic novel, she creates a story with her words and the images she creates in peoples' minds.

    Time and Space
    What insight did Persepolis give you into Iranian life during and after the revolution?
    Persepolis gave me insight on how Iranian life during the revolution was terrible. I feel bad that so many people who wanted to be free and act like themselves could not because they were oppressed by the islamic regime. After the revolution I feel bad as well that even after time fighting so many people were still suppressed and being forced to wear a veil. Persepolis made me realize that young kids were forced to see war and violence at a young age and were put into a place of dealing with religion and government problems. At the beginning of the book, Marji is young and worrying about things no child should think about. Because of all of this, it was hard for me to read how her life turned upside down and became sad and changed into a person she didn't even realize.
