This assignment is very important for me and it can upgrade my mark a lot. So please read the instruction in one of the attachments and the rubric.
1. Read the Story
2. Fill out the Organizer on Your Chosen Methodology:
Using the same graphic organizer that you used to analyze a poem and a passage from a play, you will now choose the theory that you think is most appropriate for analyzing the short story you read. You will fill out the graphic organizer only for your chosen theory.
How do you decide which theory is most appropriate? By now you will have discovered that different theories highlight or reveal different aspects of a text. For example, if you applied feminist literary theory to the scene you read in Hamlet, you may have focused on the power struggle between Hamlet and Gertrude, or you may have focused on Hamlet’s strange obsession with his mother’s sexuality. However, if you tried to apply post-colonial literary theory, you probably wouldn’t have been able to identify any significant ideas. On the other hand, the reverse was probably true for the poem The History Lesson.
Remember to think of the different theories as different lenses. Much as a photographer chooses different lenses when he or she photographs different subjects, you can choose a different lens to analyze different texts. You should choose at least five different things from the short story to analyze.
will be using this graphic organizer to help you prepare a more formal written analysis of the text.
