Citizen Kane Essays: Due by Friday, 5/25 on Turnitin.


Device Analysis

Please write a 2 page minimum (typed, double-spaced) reflection paper on the use of a minimum of 3 film techniques in Citizen Kane. Please describe the specific technique and analyze its effect and how its use contributes to the meaning of the film. There are no structural requirements for the paper, but the paper should be written in formal voice.

Character Analysis

Write a character analysis paper focusing on Charles Foster Kane. Again, it will be in formal voice, 2 pages, double-spaced, but no structure requirements. Consider discussing Kane's influences, motivations, desires, fears, relationships with others, etc. Do your best to use some quotations or near quotations from the movie.

Final Reflection Essays: Due by Monday, June 4th at 10:00pm.


Things Fall Apart: We will discuss this book starting with Chapters 1-8 on Monday, the 21st. Please note that you will need to pick up a copy from the library. Check back later for a confirmation of when we will be able to get the book from the library.

Review Sheets

Below are the links for review sheets. Please spend some time this weekend reviewing the plays and your class notes on poetry, prose, and Wuthering Heights. You may want to review some poetry terms that you haven't thought about in a while by using your placemat or the glossary in the back of red book. You will also want to read the prompts you didn't write on, so that you have some essays to think about as well. Most importantly, begin to work on your sleep habits so that you are well rested on Wednesday. There is no studying more important than getting a good night's sleep.
