Sunday, 7.24.11- hello! Hope your weekend was a good one! Read comments within and complete new assignment.

Light and dark images-happy and sad, good and evil? Monday night 9:30- hello! I have looked at your images of light and darkness and the idea which supportxs each knowing (Light,truth) and not knowing (darkness). I have gone within the story and highlighted other possibilities for you because most of them mean something. You have to consider what is happening in the story. Granny W is dying and what she recalls, for teh most part, is associated with these images highlighted. FOr example, the last line states that she "blew the light out." Her light would figuratively be her life, the light of her life. See? Notice darker images are always connected with the man who jilted her. GO back and look what I have highlighted in blue. Write an essay which answers this question: in "The Jilting of Granny Weatherall," how are images of darkness and light used as symbolism? What do they mean? To whom can these images be connected? The essay must be multi-paragraph and should have at least 2-3 parenthetical citations. For the sake of citing, the author's name is Katherine Anne Porter. Since you do not have page numbers, write (Porter, para. 2) for example. This would tell a reader that POrter wrote the tale and the information can be found in paragraph two.

Please turn in by Thursday or earlier if you wish. AA- after this assignment, did you want to move on to Girl with a Pearl Earring? Have you started reading this? Have a good night.
