Reading Notes Part B: Czech

I chose the Czech stories because they are high in the fantasy aspect and have quite a bit of irony in them. In "The Man Who Met Misery", there are many directions I could go with my own retelling just from this one story. I love the fact that there is an ogre in the story. I also enjoy the ring calling out to the ogre to tell him where Francis was. Indeed, this young man met misery, which Is a play on words making you believe that it is a human. "Nine at a Blow" could be an interesting twist to my project story. I am excited to get started.

All the Assignments...

I am intrigued by the stories we get to write about. I love reading stories from different parts of the world. I am very excited for the extra credit and I know making time for the extra credit is difficult, but worth it. I love when a professor takes the time to set up their class in such a unique way. It really shows that they love what they do and I cannot be more appreciative. I am ready to give this class my full attention. Too Tired to Function

Reading Options

I would like to read stories that are popular, which I have not read yet. I like knowing the information when people use sayings or quotes from books or movies. Dante's Inferno Inferno This is a story I have wanted to read for a while now, not just because it is a video game. I am not sure what the story is about and I would love to find out for myself. There are many stories that I have either seen the movie or just heard a version of the story. I would like to explore these readings to find stories that entertain and keep my attention. Twenty-Two Goblins Twenty-Two Goblins is a story that I know I like so far. I started it last semester but did not get around to finishing it. I recommend it to anyone who likes stories that are a little unusual. Canterbury Tales I read a storybook last semester that made me want to read these tales. It focused on Death and it grabbed my attention almost immediately.
