Read Kate Chopin′s ″The Story of an Hour″ (in Course Documents), while annotating the text and/or
taking notes. Discuss your response to
the piece including what you liked and why, what you didn’t like and why, and
one theme you see Chopin trying to get across in/through the story.
WHY?- This is the most important question to ask always, followed closely by
HOW? This is because these are the only
questions that elicit more than a one word answer, which is all WHAT, WHERE,
WHO, and WHEN questions usually require. WHY and HOW questions provide you with the most information, which is
why, when children are learning about things and the world, they are
continually asking WHY? Because this provides the most information. Therefore, all semester when you are reading
these texts you should ask yourself WHY?, why is a character doing this, why is
he saying this, why is the author creating this situation/scenario, etc. and
what does this all add up to or what message is he/she trying to get
across. This will help you to perform
thematic readings of the text, delve deeper, and get a better understanding of
the time of composition of any text, the author’s views, etc.
