Naturalism Project
Mr. Cook assigned us a project on Naturalism today. We are required to THINK. Unfortunately, this process is foreign to many of us, and might actually require some effort to be put forth on our parts. I am in a group with the charming Miss Georgina Meyer. We have already made a decent amount of progress on this assignment. I have been reading about the philosophical definition of Naturalism, as well as how it differs from other philosophies of the time. I have also been reading about American history from 1865 to 1914. Georgina has been researching Naturalism specifically as it applies to American literature. She has also been studying the Gilded Age. We have already compiled a number of reliable, peer-reviewed sources and amassed some information about our subject.

Okay. YOu have let me know what you have been doing. I am more interested in what you think about the materials you are reading. I look at these blogs as a place for you to develop thoughts -- not so much as a place to report what you are doing. I think that it becomes plain whether you have done the required work when you come to class (though I could easily be wrong about that idea), but I don't usually get to see the results of those mental wheels turning.
