Greetings from "Solitude."
For this weekend, I would like you to read YGB again as well as a reading on Carl Jung's ideas about archetypes (link to Jungian Archetypes provided here). After the readings, please respond to the following:
In a well-written (or typed) paragraph or two, please discuss how Hawthorne's story can be analyzed using Jung's ideas about the unconscious mind and archetypes. I think you will enjoy the reading on Jung. This is the first opportunity to study psychology as it relates to literature and the human condition. Pay close attention to the "shadow" archetype, as this may be the easiest to relate.
We will discuss on Monday.
Continue to work on the independent reading project, college essays, etc. I know it is a lot of work, but such is the life of a college bound senior.
For those who asked, I will try to provide feedback for you on your college essays.
Have a good weekend.
