“The Yellow Wallpaper” and “The Gilded Six-Bits” discussion No unread replies. No replies. Which literary theory, New Historicism, Feminist Criticism, Critical Race Theory, or Psychoanalytic Criticism, do you think is the most helpful in determining a theme in Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s “The Yellow Wallpaper?” OR Zora Neale Hurston’s “The Gilded Six-Bits”?  What do you think that theme is? Choose one or two specific literary elements, such as plot, characterization, setting, symbol, point of view, imagery, metaphor, or style (such as diction, syntax, tone, and irony) that Gilman or Hurston uses to convey this theme.  Use textual evidence from the story itself to help you explain. If you attempt a psychoanalytic reading, consider how any elements of the author’s psychology (experience, repression, behavior, or motives) or characters’ psychology are reflected in the theme of the story. If you attempt a feminist reading, illustrate what the story might be implying about patriarchal culture, and/or the status of women in society. How is the author attempting to uncover these matters in her story? If you attempt a new historical reading, consider how the text exposes insights into current events of the period or into the author’s life. Is the author critiquing anything about their society? How so? If you attempt a reading using critical race theory, consider how the race of the author and/or characters comes into play in the story. How do the characters experience racism?  Is it direct or indirect? Is it based on conscious or unconscious biases? How is the author or character affected by this racism? Please review Reading Fiction, Literary Theory, and Writing in Literature before responding in this forum. Criteria: Respond to the original prompt and a peer’s post by Sunday at midnight. Reference (cite text from) the reading. Post a minimum of 250 words in your original response. Make sure your post is thoughtful, meaning it doesn’t just repeat what the text or another student says. Respond thoughtfully to another student’s post (at least 100 words). NOTE: It’s okay if you and another student respond to the same peer at the same time.  https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/writing_in_literature/writing_about_fiction/developing_a_thesis.html https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/writing_in_literature/writing_about_fiction/pre_writing.html https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/writing_in_literature/literary_theory_and_schools_of_criticism/critical_disability_studies.html https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/writing_in_literature/literary_theory_and_schools_of_criticism/critical_race_theory.html https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/writing_in_literature/literary_theory_and_schools_of_criticism/ecocriticism.html https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/writing_in_literature/literary_theory_and_schools_of_criticism/postmodern_criticism.html https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/writing_in_literature/literary_theory_and_schools_of_criticism/marxist_criticism.html https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/writing_in_literature/literary_theory_and_schools_of_criticism/feminist_criticism.html https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/writing_in_literature/literary_theory_and_schools_of_criticism/gender_studies_and_queer_theory.html https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/writing_in_literature/literary_theory_and_schools_of_criticism/new_historicism_cultural_studies.html https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/writing_in_literature/literary_theory_and_schools_of_criticism/reader_response_criticism.html https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/writing_in_literature/literary_theory_and_schools_of_criticism/psychoanalytic_criticism.html https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/writing_in_literature/literary_theory_and_schools_of_criticism/structuralism_and_semiotics.html https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/writing_in_literature/literary_theory_and_schools_of_criticism/formalism.html https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/writing_in_literature/literary_theory_and_schools_of_criticism/index.html https://literaryterms.net/imagery/ https://literaryterms.net/theme/ https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/subject_specific_writing/writing_in_literature/literary_terms/index.html

Golden Lines: A “golden line” is a line of text that is especially meaningful, surprising, helpful or thought provoking. The line can be from a piece of student writing, textbook, novel, short story, play, movie, or primary source document, etc. As students read or write, they seek to find their own “golden line”. Once found, the golden line then provides an anchor for more writing and/or discussion. Why? In everyday life, people usually have a purpose for reading. You read your mail to sort through junk, find sales and specials, pay bills and look for cards and notes from friends. You read the newspaper and websites for information. Students also need a purpose for reading other than to answer the questions at the end of the chapter or because the teacher tells them to read. Discussion guidelines: 1. Responses to discussion questions must be a minimum of 150 words; however, if you would like to write more, please do! 2. Each student must reply directly to at least 2  other classmates through the comments section by the friday of each week. (IF you don’t you will not get credit.) 3. Comments must be respectful and a minimum of two sentences long. **Remember multiple viewpoints are essential to understanding concepts. It’s okay to think differently. 4. You have an option to use flip grid or write your discussion post. BOTH options will be posted on this forum. Please link your flip grid video.  ______________________________________________________________________________________________ In a 150 word response, answer the following questions: Pick a golden line from the text and analyze it.
