As I Lay Dying the Awakening 2020 RISING 11TH GRADE HONORS AMERICAN LITERATURE SUMMER READING Students will read TWO books: one common required book and one book of choice from several options. These titles are taken from recommended reading lists for college-bound students. It is your responsibility to view reading materials within a Christian perspective. While holding firm to your own beliefs, consider how any controversial elements reflect the flawed, sinful circumstances of separation from God and faith. We will read works of literature that explore issues of race, class, and culture in our efforts to understand how the American tradition of literature came to be established and what it means to be American. This summer’s required reading and the optional texts deal with mature themes, challenging language, and complex issues. Contact me if you are unable to obtain copies of your books OR if you need to discuss these choices. • Be sure that the title and author match the assigned book and your edition is unabridged; if published with additional texts or stories, only read the assigned title. • Part of your assessment for Required Book #1 is annotating the book; see instructions below. • Other assessments (an objective test over Required Book #1, a creative essay about an imagined dialogue between characters in the required text and your book of choice) will occur within the first two weeks of class. Book #1: Required (See Assignment at the end of the list.) As I Lay Dying by William Faulkner (Amazon.com Review) As I Lay Dying is Faulkner’s harrowing account of the Bundren family’s odyssey across the Mississippi countryside to bury Addie, their wife and mother. Narrated in turn by each of the family members—including Addie herself—as well as others the novel ranges in mood, from dark comedy to the deepest pathos. Considered one of the most influential novels in American fiction in structure, style, and drama, As I Lay Dying is a true 20th-century classic. Faulkner's distinctive narrative structures--the uses of multiple points of view and the inner psychological voices of the characters--in one of its most successful incarnations here in As I Lay Dying. In the story, the members of the Bundren family must take the body of Addie, matriarch of the family, to the town where Addie wanted to be buried. Along the way, we listen to each of the members on the macabre pilgrimage, while Faulkner heaps upon them various flavors of disaster. Book #2: Choose ONE of the following options The Awakening by Kate Chopin (Amazon.com description) The Awakening by Kate Chopin, first published in 1899, shocked readers with its daring portrayal of a woman trapped in a stifling marriage. The narrative focuses on Edna Pontellier’s shifting emotions as she reconciles her maternal duties with her desire for social freedom and to have her own life. When summer vacation ends, the Pontellier family returns to New Orleans. Edna gradually reassesses her priorities and takes a more active role in her own happiness. She starts to isolate herself from New Orleans society and to withdraw from some of the duties traditionally associated with motherhood. Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand (Amazon.com description) This is a nonfiction option. On a May afternoon in 1943, an American military plane crashed into the Pacific Ocean and disappeared, leaving only a spray of debris and a slick of oil, gasoline, and blood. Then, on the ocean surface, a face appeared. It was that of a young lieutenant, the plane’s bombardier, who was struggling to a life raft and pulling himself aboard. So began one of the most extraordinary sagas of the Second World War. *You may select the Young Adult version or the Original Be aware that the original is a bit more graphic and the YA is a bit shorter. Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston (Barnes and Noble Review) One of the most important and enduring books of the twentieth century, Their Eyes Were Watching God brings to life a Southern love story with the wit and pathos found only in the writing of Zora Neale Hurston. Out of print for almost thirty years—due largely to initial audiences’ rejection of its strong black female protagonist—Hurston’s classic has since its 1978 reissue become perhaps the most widely read and highly acclaimed novel in the canon of African- American literature. A Separate Peace by John Knowles (Amazon.com Review) An American classic and great bestseller for over thirty years, A Separate Peace is timeless in its description of adolescence during a period when the entire country was losing its innocence to World War II. Set at a boys' boarding school in New England during the early years of World War II, A Separate Peace is a harrowing and luminous parable of the dark side of adolescence. Gene is a lonely, introverted intellectual. Phineas is a handsome, taunting, daredevil athlete. What happens between the two friends one summer, like the war itself, banishes the innocence of these boys and their world. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain Of all the contenders for the title of The Great American Novel, none has a better claim than The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Intended at first as a simple story of a boy's adventures in the Mississippi Valley—a sequel to The Adventures of Tom Sawyer—the book grew and matured under Twain's hand into a work of immeasurable richness and complexity. More than a century after its publication, the critical debate over the symbolic significance of Huck and Jim's voyage is still fresh, and it remains a major work that can be enjoyed at many levels: as an incomparable adventure story and as a classic of American humor. ANNOTATION: REQUIRED BOOK #1 ASSIGNMENT Annotation is an essential part of reading and writing. As you read, please be sure to annotate As I Lay Dying for basic elements of the story: character, setting, and conflict. If you need a refresher on why and how to annotate, please watch the following video: https://youtube/YJW8YU1K7-M Your books will be collected and graded for annotations. In addition, please annotate for the following topics and themes: ~The way that travel, relocation, or journeys impacts characters’ lives and ambitions ~The role that education or the lack of education plays in a character’s life and his/her struggles ~The role that gender, class, and any other elements play in a character’s identity ~Characters’ interest in self-reinvention/creating a new identity You are not required to annotate your second book, though some notes are always helpful. Read the second book for pleasure and enjoyment, keeping in mind any connection you can make between the required book and your choice book. .

  • The River Scene in William Faulkner's As I Lay Dying and The
    International Journal of Language and Linguistics Vol. 2, No. 4; October 2015 The River Scene in William Faulkner’s As I Lay Dying and the Postmodernist Myth of the Center: Intertextuality and Linguistic Experimentation Mourad Romdhani University of Sfax Tunisia Abstract Trying to cross a flooding river with the coffin of their dead mother, the Bundrens struggle to keep connected to a dead mother’s coffin. To keep hold of their mother’s corpse, most of the Bundren’s grip a rope tied to them. This image is reminiscent of the umbilical rope that connects a living mother to a not-yet living baby in her womb. In the river scene, this picture is ironically redrawn to portray living children connected to a non-living mother in a tomb. This scene is of paramount importance in William Faulkner’s As I Lay Dying (1930) insofar as it inscribes the novel into a postmodernist theory that defies demystifying notions of centrality or grand narratives of absolute truth and ultimate meanings. The river scene testifies to the credibility of a postmodernist argument about the myth of the Center. Such a decisive claim rests upon a new philosophy that signals the end and the “mythification” of any grand narrative of absolute truth, coherence, and linearity. Key Words: Myth, politics, poetics, postmodernism, center, intertextuality, linguistic experimentation Myth: from Politics to Poetics The term myth derives from the Greek word “mythos,” meaning a story. Myth, like all stories, is an endeavor to give meaning to human existence. In Myth and Literature, William Righter states: “‘myth’ is, at varying levels of consciousness and degrees of articulateness, a way of describing the foundations of social behavior” (10).

  • ANALYSIS As I Lay Dying
    ANALYSIS As I Lay Dying (1930) William Faulkner (1897-1962) “That was in the summer of 1929. I got a job in the power plant (in Oxford), on the night shift, from 6 pm to 6 am, as a coal passer. I shoveled coal from the bunker into a wheelbarrow and wheeled it in and dumped it where the fireman could put it into the boiler. About 11 o’clock the people would be going to bed, and so it did not take so much steam. Then we could rest, the fireman and I. He would sit in a chair and doze. I had invented a table out of a wheelbarrow in the coal bunker, just beyond a wall from where a dynamo ran. It made a deep, constant humming noise. There was not more work to do until about 4 am, when we could have to clean the firs and get up steam again. On these nights, between 12 and 4, I wrote As I Lay Dying is six weeks, without changing a word. I sent it to Smith [his publisher] and wrote him that by it I would stand or fall.” William Faulkner Preface, Sanctuary (1932) “In…As I Lay Dying, the story is told in separate snatches by fifteen different people, representing so many different facets of this lurid gem. It has to do with the much delayed burial of a woman by the members of her family. They are poor farmer folk, ignorant, shiftless, ‘misfortunate” creatures, terribly warped by poverty and privation, in whom the primary traits of human nature appear in their essential starkness.

He was much influenced by the paintings of Picasso and Braque, which makes him to write his novels using geometrical shapes to visualize the reality of his plot to readers.

The article affirms how the geometric special abstractions apprise the setting and plot of the novel, and later to show how the spatiality of setting and plot in turn shape the characters, and finally to mix the theme in the spatiality of the characters. The cubistic shapes in this novel reveal the reality and circle of human life in abstract form. My research argues how Faulkner brilliantly uses the cubist painting technique of Picasso and Braque to write the novel geometrically.

  • A Study of Anse Bundren in As I Lay Dying in Light of Perspectivism
    2020 2nd Scientific Workshop on Advanced in Social Sciences, Arts & Humanities (ASSAH 2020) A Study of Anse Bundren in as I Lay Dying in Light of Perspectivism Shiyu Zhang Nanhu College, Jiaxing University, Jiaxing, Zhejiang Province, 314001, China [email protected] Keywords: As i lay dying, Modernistic, Nietzsche, Perspectivism, Sense, Force Abstract: Since the advent of As I Lay Dying, approaches applied in its analysis vary radically. While brilliant research outcomes have been yielded successfully, and a considerable number of them focus on its modernistic characteristics, Anse Bundren Bundren’s narrative especially, few literary critics and professionals have probed Anse’s perspective from the vintage point of Nietzsche’s theory of Perspectivism. Although Anse’s narrative is tagged as Faulkner’s “tour de force”, which means in writing the work he has not changed a word of it and it undergoes little reexamination and has not suffered any editorial modification, and hailed one of his very best, generations of scholars and critics find it “subtly unreadable”. This research believes that all this “unreadableness” is due to Faulkner’s modernistic writing technique, and more importantly, with his philosophical thinking regarding Nietzsche’s Perspectivism. Thus this research is to justify that Anse Bundren’s perspective is Faulkner’s literary expression of Nietzsche’s critical thinking of Perspectivism. The research examines the burial of Addie Bundren in the novel from the perspective of Anse Bundren, the focal family member. The analysis over sense and force of Anse indicates that he has a unique sense of Addie Bundren’s burial and his sense materializes under the influence of a peculiar force.

"But I found out afterward that not only each book had to have a design but the whole output or sum of an artist's work had to have a design." In the following pages I have sought to illuminate that larger design of Faulkner's art by placing the whole canon within successive frames of thought provided by various sources, influences, and affinities: Holy Writ, music, biopsychology, religion, Freud/Marx, William James. In the end, I hope these essays may thereby contribute toward revealing in Faulkner's work what Henry James, in "The Figure in the Carpet," spoke of as "the primal plan; some thing like a complex figure in a Persian carpet .... It's the very string . .my pearls are strung upon.... It stretches ... from book to book." I wish to acknowledge my debt to William J.

  • Unwed Mothers, Race, and Transgression in William Faulkner's
    Unwed Mothers, Race, and Transgression in William Faulkner’s Novels Mindy Allen Abstract As a modernist writer, William Faulkner is conflicted with the autonomy he can allow for his female characters, particularly unmarried mothers. Ideology about women during the early twentieth century, including the debates of birth control and the loss of the Southern Belle, influence the creation of Faulkner’s female characters. The purpose of this paper is to explore how Faulkner’s unmarried mothers transgress sexual boundaries imposed by patriarchal values in the novels As I Lay Dying, The Sound and the Fury, Light in August, Absalom! Absalom! and Go Down, Moses. Faulkner’s female characters can no longer strive towards the status of the Southern Belle as New South ideals emerge. Faulkner includes many unmarried mothers in his novels, as well as mixed race unmarried mothers. He leaves the impression that, through his novels, he attempts to make since of females transgressing sexual and racial boundaries. Are women bound only to child-bearing? In the early 1900s, Margaret Sanger and other women demanded an answer to this question through the debate of birth control as well as women’s suffrage. As the birth control debate raged during the early 1900s, many Americans also feared the rise of promiscuity in adolescent girls of the white working class. Historian Mary Odem describes: “the first two decades of the twentieth century, public officials, business leaders, physicians, and social scientists, in addition to women reformers, expressed mounting concern about the apparent rise in sexual promiscuity among young working-class women in America” (Delinquent Daughters 96).

  • Acolyte of Nature: Spirituality in Faulkner's Wilderness
    ACOLYTE OF NATURE: SPIRITUALITY IN FAULKNER'S WILDERNESS A Thesis by BRENDAN CONOR MIZE Submitted to the Graduate School at Appalachian State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of ENGLISH MASTER OF ARTS May 2018 Department of English Copyright by Brendan Conor Mize 2018 All Rights Reserved Abstract ACOLYTE OF NATURE: SPIRITUALITY IN FAULKNER’S WILDERNESS Brendan Conor Mize B.A. Appalachian State University Chairperson: Carl Eby, Ph.D The environment is omnipresent in many of William Faulkner’s novels not merely as a background or setting for the narrative and the characters, but also as a symbolic, metaphorical, and sometimes personified part of the identity of not only the characters but also the culture in which they live. Culture, tradition, and the environment find themselves intrinsically bound to one another, suggesting not only a symbiotic, but also a spiritual connection between them. My thesis explores the relationship between the environment and culture, discussing the wilderness—particularly as it is depicted in Go Down, Moses, The Sound and the Fury, and As I Lay Dying—as a spiritual place. The ways in which the various main characters of these novels interact with nature, particularly within Go Down, Moses, could be interpreted as a worship of the environment by imbuing it with some spiritual significance. Because of the close connection between the environment and the human culture, the destruction of the wilderness in Faulkner’s novels mirrors the gradual destruction of the community and its culture, emphasizing the tragic devaluation of tradition. This thesis will examine Faulkner’s novels Go Down, Moses, The Sound and the Fury, and As I Lay Dying through the lens of the Book of Genesis, examining the ways in iv which the environment, the wilderness, appears to be for the main characters of the respective novels their own personal Eden.
