 The book we read by Jane Austen had the original, working title First Impressions. How does this title apply to the novel? How does the concept of first impressions fit into other works we read this year, such as Animal Farm, Victorian Poetry, and Murder on the Orient Express?

Do you think the novel’s chasteness(do not ask me what this word means, if you do not know, look it up) is more a reflection of the way people lived in that time and place or a reflection of what was acceptable in its literature or something specific to Jane Austen? Is the novel better because of this, or would it be better with some passion and desire added to the pages? ]]> 2022-01-19 18:42:21 UTC https://padlet.com/khall63/ppaa3chi9igt85k4/wish/2001202610 khall63 https://padlet.com/khall63/ppaa3chi9igt85k4/wish/2001226238 In Animal Farm, what corrupts people/animals the most – money, material items, or power? Can you find cases of corruption in any of the other texts/movies we studied this semester? What corrupts people in real life?

Are there characters who are ambivalent or cowardly in other texts we studied this semester? Are they similar or different from Benjamin?

If so, what tipped you off? If not, who did you think the murderer was? Were you surprised when Poirot revealed the culprits? Why is murder so interesting to readers/audiences at every point in time?]]> 2022-01-21 15:01:35 UTC https://padlet.com/khall63/ppaa3chi9igt85k4/wish/2005182453 https://padlet.com/khall63/ppaa3chi9igt85k4/wish/2005208679 Which of the poems we studied during the Victorian Poetry unit was the best? Which one has stood the test of time and still seems like it could be interesting to modern readers? Which one seems the most dated? Explain your reasons.
