Document Summary

Same format and grading as the in class tests. Take into account how it relates to the work as a whole. From the beginning of the course until now, any work is possible. Write as much as you can, he can only give marks for what is there. Try to devote 1 hour to this and 1 hour to part b (2 hour exam) May not analyze the same author in both of the essays. So, must discuss 6 authors in part b. Part a is fine to repeat: interpretation: Bartleby, the lawyer trying to make sense of him. May or may not be an emblem of the real erupting into regular life. Uncanny, it demands a response and interpretation; asserting power and alleviating desire (anxiety, sense, meaning, understanding). *make sense of his attempt to make sense*. An allegory of reading, the lawyer is a reader. We have a limited view of bartleby (through the lawyer).
