The Fall of the House of Usher -Edgar Allan Poe
Young Goodman Brown -Nathaniel Hawthorne
Begin exploring a comparative analysis of two writers from the course.
1. Choose two writers to work with from the course.
2. Identify and explore something that connects them together. Do they both use language, structure, or narration in an interesting way?
Do you see parallels or counterparts in their characters?
Do their stories deal with similar or complementary themes? What makes you want to read these works side by side?
3. Discuss how this connection might evolve into an essay.
4. Think about moving this in the direction of an interpretive argument: will you be able to offer one central claim that ties your observations and interpretations together?
Flow will you, as a unique individual reader, bring something original to the discussion of these two works?
