Katryna commented on the post, Duality and Conservatism, on the site English 345: English Novel II 7 years, 4 months ago

I agree with your explanation of the characters of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. I had not thought of Mr. Hyde as representing child labor, and all the dark side of his community, just in a person. It is true that Dr. […]
Katryna wrote a new post, Carmilla's Discreet Actions, on the site English 345: English Novel II 7 years, 4 months ago

Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu’s story Carmilla had an intersting way of coming together, which I thought was done well. At the beginning of the book when the carriage and horses are witnessed by Laura, her father, and g […]
Katryna commented on the post, The Moonstone and the Moon, on the site English 345: English Novel II 7 years, 5 months ago

This is great. It is interesting how you included the Moon and compared it to the shinning of the diamond. They all connected to each other very closely. I think this would have even worked if each haiku was from […]
Katryna commented on the post, Diamonds are Forever, on the site English 345: English Novel II 7 years, 6 months ago

There are many mysteries which include diamonds. I think maybe diamonds are used because of the story that is behind them going missing, or what will be done with the diamond, and the difficultly of obtaining one […]
Katryna wrote a new post, A Christmas Carol, on the site English 345: English Novel II 7 years, 6 months ago

“A Christmas Carol” is a timeless story. It does take place during a Victorian era, but the situation of the characters and the lessons learned at the end of this story can be applied to more recent societies. […]
Katryna commented on the post, Jane: As Belle or Delilah? A look at the troubling closing chapters of “Jane Eyre”, on the site English 345: English Novel II 7 years, 6 months ago

I thought your post was very interesting, I didn’t even think of the Beauty and the Beast comparison.
I see it harder for Rochester losing his sight than Samson getting his hair cut off and losing his strength […]
Katryna commented on the post, The Religious Side (or Lack Thereof) of Charlotte Brontë, on the site English 345: English Novel II 7 years, 6 months ago

Charlotte Brontes life does reflect into her novel Jane Eyre. The experience at Lowood and religion are significant as you are pointing out. Bronte came from a closed place and later on was introduced to different […]
Katryna wrote a new post, Jane Eyre, on the site English 345: English Novel II 7 years, 7 months ago

Jane Eyre starts off this novel by going into her life when she was younger. The family she had been living with, the Reeds were not nice to her and just picked on her, especially John in one instance, where she […]
Katryna commented on the post, On Social Class and a Criticism of Emma’s Character, on the site English 345: English Novel II 7 years, 7 months ago

When I first began reading Emma, I thought that she was a mature character, but now I just think that the way she carries herself and speaks is what makes me think this but she has a lot of growing up to do […]
Katryna commented on the post, Emma’s unadmitted feelings, on the site English 345: English Novel II 7 years, 7 months ago

I am glad that you pointed this out. As I was reading, I did not even realize this for trying to understand everything else at the same time. In the instances that are pointed out here I get that Mr.Elton is […]
