Good Morning Everyone,
Today, we will be taking a look at magical realism in The Eyre Affair. In order to do this, you are all going to work in groups of 4-5 people. Your group will work to answer the following set of questions on a poster paper:
1. What is magical realism? Put both what you remember from past classes at SOTA as well as what you find from a brief google search. I particularly recommend this site: http://english.emory.edu/Bahri/MagicalRealism.html
2. How does Fforde use magical realism in the novel? Provice specific examples.
At the end of the first period, your group will share its answers with the rest of the class, so make sure to write clearly on your paper to help you present.
Assignment:
For the rest of second period, complete a blog entry that uses some of the elements of magical realism.
Homework:
*Work on your blogs (remember for the unit assignment, I will be looking for the hyptertext entry, the magical realism entry, and the 5-7 entries that illustrate a week (or other time frame) in the life of your character).
*Read through chapter 31 in The Eyre Affair (clearly, the quiz is Friday).
