Blog #4 assignment

So far we have discussed biographical, psychological, and gender criticism as particular ways of approaching a literary work. In your own blog, choose one of these three types of critical approaches as discussed in the textbook and in class and apply that approach to one of the short stories we covered. Imagine you are demonstrating to other readers the application of the particular approach. Address why that particular story would be interpreted well with this approach, what particular elements of the story this critical approach emphasizes, and what new insights about the story we gain through its application.

You should title your response "Assignment #4--Criticism." Post your reply by the deadine (4/15) and then reply to a couple of your classmates' posts on this assignment by 4/20. Per the syllabus, Blog entries will be 250 words or more. Responses are without a word limit but should be more substantial than "I agree." Remember that you can respond to as many as you want but you only get credit for the first two. Full credit will be given only to those who adhere to the posting and the reply deadlines.
