Parent child relationships are the foundation for which all future relationships are formed. In looking at the parent child relationships in Beloved and in one other text we have read this year, I want you to compare and contrast them and then explain what is revealed through these relationships.
Ex: Compare/contrast Hamlet and Gertrude to Sethe and Beloved.
Explain the relationship between Hamlet and his mother.
Explain the relationship between Sethe and Beloved.
Then explain what both relationships reveal about this idea. Be sure to keep the entire text in mind when forming your deductions and in coming to conclusion. Please have textual evidence to support your thinking.
This is a place for those in 352 to examine not only the literature that we read, but to examine how we read, why we read, and why we write. This is a place to pose questions, to peer into ideas, and to establish a voice. This is a thinking place.

Faulkner’s Ideas
In this week’s blog, I want you to examine what Faulkner says in his Nobel Banquet Speech.
Read his speech and determine if his novel As I Lay Dying does what he says is the role of the artist.
Write a letter to one of the characters using both the speech and the novel as your support to answer the question: Does the novel do what Faulkner says writers should do in a piece of writing?
Your letter should be a couple paragraphs answering the question and addressing a specific character.
