Literary close readings
14 Fevereiro 2022, 09:30 • Cecília Maria Beecher Martins
Students carried out a literary close reading of W.B: Yeats's poem "The balloon of the Mind" and the opening paragraphs of William Faulkner's short story "A Rose for Emily" following the guidelines in the course book.
These exercises were carried out in small groups followed by a general student discussion of the outcome of the readings.
An example of a complete exercise was offered to students at the end of class to provide them with a guideline if they wish to do a literary close reading for their oral presentation.
