1.
What tone will you take with your essay? I will use both a
melancholy and a joyous tone.
2.
What narrative perspective will you use? First-person?
Second-person? Third-person? Will you switch between
perspectives? Why or why not? I plan on using first person and second person
because I think it would make my essay flow better.
3.
What point-of-view will you use in your essay? I will use my point of
view for this essay.
4.
How much psychic distance will you create between you and your
subject? I’m not exactly sure what this means.
5.
How will you weave story and idea? In other words, how
will you shift between summary and dramatic narrative?
I’m not sure yet. However, I hope to have a couple transitional sentences that will make me catch the
reader’s attention.
6.
How will you begin your essay? I will give a description
of the characters and in small detail how I encounter the problem of finding
myself.
7.
How will you structure your essay's middle? I will describe in more
detail how and the times I encounter this problem.
8.
How will you end your essay? I will also describe how I found myself and
everything I had to overcome.
Alma,
ReplyDeleteI like the division between the tones of melancholy and joy; this seems to fit the divide between being lost and being found.
As for "psychic distance," are you going to write from the perspective of someone who is lost (very little distance) or someone looking back at a time in the past (greater distance)?
