Lecture Details

Hemingway, Fitzgerald, Faulkner (AMST 246)Professor Wai Chee Dimock continues her discussion of The Sound and the Fury by juxtaposing Quentins stream-of-consciousness to his brother Benjys narrative subjectivity. Professor Dimock argues that Faulkner uses stylistic parallels between the two sections to communicate "kinship" and "variation" between the two narrators. In her readings, she focuses on their relationship with the black characters in The Sound and the Fury, as well as their reactions to Caddys loss of sexual innocence. She concludes with a discussion of Quentins suicide as a reaction to the "second-hand tragedy" of Caddys pregnancy.Warning This lecture contains graphic content andor adult language that some viewers may find disturbing0000 - Chapter 1.
