Four: Novel Analysis
By Wednesday on the Week 14 Novel Discussion Board, explore the significance of Catholic Creole culture to the novel. Remember that Edna has been transplanted into the Creole society, from a much different background—she is a “northern” southerner if you will, from Kentucky, but a whole different world when it comes to Southern Louisiana. This is an issue that should not be overlooked.
Make sure you mention your sources if you share information from your research of the Chopin links.
Discussion replies: Read and respond to others--keep the discussion going.
By Friday at 10 PM on the Novel Exploratory Workshop Forum post your Novel Exploratory Paper. Also submit to me via digital drop box (use attachment) and email (copy and paste). Don't forget the heading and the paragraph numbering.
