Info is below”If you remember anything from this class, I would like you to remember that “thoughts cause feelings.” What I mean is that if you can change the way you think about something, you will very likely change the way you feel. Literature enables us to think outside of ourselves…a symbolic shedding of our own skin to don another’s albeit temporarily. When we look at the world from this different perspective, we often make connections and create new meaning in our own lives as a result. The Personal Response Journal provides you with an opportunity to explore the details of those connections in private and for course credit. This is not a journal where you need to prove that you have read the stories by summarizing their plots, rather, it is a place for you to “open a vein,” in many ways to work through some of life’s challenges.Consider both the cultural and temporal (historical time) contexts in Washington Irving’s “The Spectre Bridegroom” and Alberto Alvaro Rios’s “A Secret Lion,” then answer the following questions. Use quotes from key passages in the stories to support your answers.1. How do you think culture influenced (or not) the writing of each of these stories?2. If we look at time as a constant, meaning that the human condition doesn’t change with time, what do you think Irving has to say about the human condition in his story? Rios? What do they have in common?P:S there are going to be 10 of these over the next 8 weeks. Are you ok with doing them all?
