After you have completed the week’s
assigned readings, post here a paragraph or two in which you reflect on what
you have learned about narrative, lyric, voice, and figurative language and how
that has influenced your reading and appreciation of Eliot’s poem. Write
carefully. Demonstrate your command of the English language. Listen to your
sentences. Remember that everytime we write, we are revealing something
about ourselves. Your writing becomes, in effect, a fingerprint of your soul. Be
sure to reply to another student’s post as well.
