Light In August - Assignment 1

Read Chapter 1, pages 3-top of 9.

Read it again.

How does Faulkner take us into the mind of the character?

On page 7 How does he handle the phenomenology of time? (Don't be put off by the term "phenomenology." In this approach, one deals with the concrete, the experience as it is experienced by the person [character]. One shares the other's reality through the text.) I will give you a big hint: there is an allusion to time and an urn that comes from a specific poem, an ode.
