2. How are we affected by literary texts in various ways? How are we impacted by TTTC?

We are effected by literary texts because we can either relate to them on a personal level, or they can provide insight on morality. I personally was impacted by TTTC because it gave me a broader perspective of the impacts of war and not only the fighting, but the social and political controversy behind it. 

3. In what ways is meaning constructed, negotiated, expressed and interpreted in TTTC?

The way in which meaning is constructed, negotiated, expressed an interpreted in TTTC is through the authors use of various rhetorical strategies. For example, his powerful use of visual imagery, syntax and metaphors throughout his writing.

4. How does the structure of style of TTTC affect its meaning?

The structure of style affects the meaning of TTTC because it develops the meaning instead of trying to force It on the audience all at one thine, this in turn allows the audience to reflect more on what the author is actually trying to convey not just jump to conclusions based on a summarization of the meaning behind this text.

We study literature for the ability to be able to connect with other people and share stories from others lives to educate, and spread awareness and we can do this through analyzing rhetorical strategies and devices. 

We are effected through the way that a telling of a specific story changes our perception of an event seeing both sides to a story and having a more open and accepting mindset. 

It is constructed through the structure of the words that the author choses to convey his/her/their meaning through. It is negotiated as readers internally make an effort to understand and fully grasp what the author is trying to say. It is interpreted and expressed by the first impression of what the author is writing to the audience and then the reaction of this is what creates the expression of emotion and thought due to the ways in which the authors meaning was conveyed. 

It Varys through different time periods and in different social situations, however, authors and speakers in all types of situations are still able to use strategies and literary devices to communicate their thoughts further. 

Because, it can evoke different emotions that the author would want to use to their advantage to connect to the meaning that they are trying to convey to the readers. 

Through the ways in which they allow readers to begin to question the world around them as they are given more insight on things and are exposed to more, leaving them in the need to face their challenges. 

it is extremely important, without historical or cultural context the text of an author can be portrayed and received in an entirely different way than it was meant to be. 

By finding similarities between the cultures and times like our own we are able to make connections enhancing our understanding 

To a great extent, we are able to read and learn about the lives of those who live in cultures and societies that are different than ours, however it can be dangerous and we must know not to believe everything we see or read

Because it can be applied to more present day situations that can be happening and can be used to learn from history and mover forward instead of repeating the same mistakes

they reflect them by telling the stories of other countries around the world and sharing it with the rest of the globe, it can even have an impact on the way a culture views itself 

People usually learn their native language or the language of their culture or region, this in turn creates social distinctions as people who speak their language are associated to the region where it is spoken 

They can sometimes adhere by using phrases or referencing something that is common for said literary forms, however, they can be completely the opposite of what is expected 

They evolve over time as these features of a literary work can become to be associated with new or unheard of aspects of a modern society 

They can share points of similarity through the techniques and devices that they choose to incorporate in their writing and by connecting their  plot and situations to other aspects of life which are common 

I am not sure how valid the notation a "classic" literary text is, when I think of classic I tend to think of really old texts like Shakespeare and Mark Twain. 

By using different characters to portray different perspectives of a situation so that the reader can experience all sides of an event 

They can e transformative in the ways that they are able to manipulate and change the emotions and feelings of the audience as they read the book

Cultural and historical context is extremely important in that without it the meaning or the purpose of a text can be lost in confusion of where the work is taking place, who it is about, what time and era it is happening during. 

The meaning and impact of a literary text can change over time as it can be related to more relevant topics and can be used to educate people and as were learn we can pull more and more out of literary texts. 

Literary texts reflect, represent, and help form cultural practices by spreading the culture in the first place where it then can be assimilated into other cultures and through the spread of knowledge people are able to educate themselves about practices of different cultures around the world.

The structure or style of a literary text affects the meaning because the style of a writing can suggest what a text is about or the tone on the piece which the reader is able to use to make connections to the writing and fully understand it's meaning. Morrisons stream-of-consiouness, shifting points, and use of analysis and prolepsis impact the meaning of this novel because though these literary techniques and strategies she is able to emphasize different parts of her writing, or set up connections that threader can make on their own which leads to a deeper thought process. This deeper thought process allows the reader to understand the meaning or multiple meanings of the text.

Time and Space

Cultural and historical context is extremely important to the production and reception of a literary text because it not only gives context to the audience, but this in turn allows the author to almost manipulate the readers thoughts by only including certain parts of a story that would be seen as historical and cultural context. The fugitive slave act impacted the creation and reception of "Beloved" because the act stated that the escaped slaves must be returned to their owners even if they resided in a free state, the impact this has is that If the family was caught and returned to Sweet Home those sequence of occurrences would change the entire ploy line of the book including the meaning which there over, has an impact on the way this book would be written (created) and how it wold be received.

Awakening to action 

Let all others keep silent a moment

I have this word to bring 

(5)This thing to say 

This song to sing 

      

          Bitter was the day when I bowed my back 

          Beneath the slaver’s whip 

That day is past.

          (10)Bitter was the day

          When I saw my children unschooled,

          my young men without a voice in the world 

          My women taken as the body-toys 

          Of a  thieving people 

(15)That day is past 

          Bitter was the day I say

          When the Lynchers rope 

          Hung about my neck 

          And the fire scorched my feet

     (20)And the oppressors had no pity 

          And only in the sorrows songs 

          relief was found  

That day is past 

          I know full well now

          (25)Only my own hands,

          Dark as the earth

          Can make my earth-dark body free

          O, thieves, exploiters, killers, 

          No longer shall you say

          (30)With arrogant eyes and scornful lips 

          “You are my servant,

           Black man-

           I, the free” 

That day is past-

          (35)For now,

          In many months-

          Dark moths were red tongues burn 

          And white teeth gleam-

          New words are formed,

          (40)Bitter 

          With the past 

          But sweet 

          With the dream 

CoaDF gives insight into Columbian culture as we can see through this true story how because of the strict laws and societal expectations of women in that culture people turn violent and hateful against one another if a tradition is not followed exactly the way it is supposed two be. This is due in part the idea of marianismo, of having to meet all expectations at all times.
