Why I chose the lens
I decided to choose the psychoanalytical lens. This lens interest me more than others because I feel like when you analyze just one character you can connect with them some way or somehow even if you think they are completely different from you. When analyzing a whole bunch of characters sometimes you don’t really truly understand who all the characters are. But when you just analyze one you really notice certain little things they might do or not do. My previous experience with the lens I chose was I guess I am just interested to see what people do and why the reason they do it for. My personal beliefs about the topics covered by this lens is that there are just so many differences between people but there is just so much more to learn about people when you analyze them deeply. Another lens that I considered was the historical lens because this book deals with slavery and switching through time periods as the book goes on. Something I am hoping to get out of this project is a good grade and to learn about a certain character in depth. -Kyle Hom

I like you're reason on why you chose this lens because I chose the lens same reason as in why you did. I believe that sometimes you can relate with the character in many ways and feel what they feel at times. I also like how you're going to focus on one character because its truly amazing how a character acts and does what he or she has to do. Love yah
ReplyDeleteI appreciate how you acknowledge that it can sometimes be difficult to connect with and understand a character because of their innate differences. However, it is clear that you can allow yourself to grow comfortable with said differences and value the things you learn about a single character when analyzing them deeply. I am excited to hear what you discover.

ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed this blog post, because I feel the same way about why I chose to use the psychoanalytic lens. And I really like how you mentioned that when you analyze just one character, you can especially relate to them more.
