The Pontelliers

After our vocab quiz, we spent quality time with The Pontelliers' introduction, the characterization apparent from each one's entrance - whether it be with a newspaper or an umbrella, a myopic man or a piece of sunburned property, respectively. As you may have realized, the minutia, the over-analysis of every paragraph adds to the interpretation of the text. Your observations and note should delve into every aspect and seek out the shifts throughout the novella, all in preparation for your classroom participation, something mandatory for full understanding and improvement in literary analysis.

We started our Chs. 2-5 discussion today, without much time, alas, so that shall finish tomorrow. For further class preparation, read through Chapter 11 and be ready to see what happens with our Edna.
