Students discussed the nature of metaphorical meaning in Chinua Achebe's 'Vultures' and Carol Ann Duffy's ' Anne Hathaway.' This session will lead into a consideration of Philip Larkin next week. The deadline for the first draft of the coursework is 5th November.
Students were also encouraged to explore the differences between 'conventional' and 'Victorian' gothic imagery. The session was concluded with a consideration of the image of the feminine landscape being licked by a snake and comments on the hallucinogenic quality of Stoker's narrative in 'Dracula.'
Sweet Dreams.
