PAGE 117

Who are Powell and Rice? Also, look up the expression ‘name dropping.’ Do you think it is related to what is going on here?

‘where the buck stopped.’ This is another cultural reference, a popular expression. Which expression do we use in Spanish for this?

PAGE 118                                                                   

Do you understand now? Or go to p 119 to see the true story revealed. Do you agree with Howard that it was better to lie about this? Why?

PAGE 119

Who is Clinton? Why the reference to pheromones, charisma, etc?

PAGE 121

What exactly gave Howard and Claire away?

What is affirmative action?

What do you think about the way Kiki handled the situation?

PAGE 122

Affirmative action and anti … What does this mean? Can you think of similar situations in Argentina? Where do you stand on the issue?

Victoria reappears here. What do you make of her?

The title of the novel is On Beauty. Does it have anything to do with Victoria?

PAGE 124

Howard hesitated at the word DJ. The topic of the generation gap and the language variations along generations is introduced in this simple rhetorical question of Howard’s. Whether you are closer to Howard or to Victoria in age, do you recognize this situation?

PAGE 129

The chapter opens with a personification. Do you like the image?

Zora is the protagonist here. What is she like?

From now and for a few pages, Zora will be surrounded by swimmers, ideal people and misshapen people. Find examples of descriptions. What do suppose is the case – are the two groups so different or is it Zora’s way of looking at people and at herself? Notice that the author does not say ‘Zora compared …  and thought that…’ This is a characteristic of Modernism, it is sometimes difficult to tell whose point of view  we are having: is it the narrator’s or Zora’s? Or is it just what really happens?

PAGE 135

More stereotypes of African Americans.

PAGE 137

Again, is everybody so striken by Carl’s face, or is it just Zora?

PAGE 138

Notice the use Carl makes of the idiom ‘to hit a nail in the head.’ He expands on it and uses it to describe himself.

Personally , I don’t think either of them is much of a ‘talker.’ I don’t think they understand what the other is trying to say. For instance, when Howard, according to Zora, says that students have a very basic vocabulary, he’s speaking from the point of view of a scholar who expects a wider vocabulary range from his students. As a teacher I feel identified with him. But can Carl be referring to that? What is he referring to, then?

PAGE 139

Now look at Zora’s monologue ‘Howard – he’s great…’ Is she acting as a person who knows how to have a conversation?

What is the precious thing that has escaped?

PAGE 141

If you were to go to this lecture, Constructing the Human, what would you expect of it? Later on the Enlightenment is mentioned. Both terms are related.

PAGE 142

Notice Smith’s pronunciation of ‘power point’ and of ‘I.’

PAGE 145

What does Smith say about Zora’s academic work? She wants to be accepted in a creative writing class. Do you think that is the appropriate place for her? Once more, the dichotomy feeling – thinking.

What does Howard really want to say to his daughter? What is there behind all these warnings?  Perhaps you disagree with me or find evidence to the contrary, but I feel this Is the first time we witness love in Howard’s toward his children. And he doesn’t even say anything, he thinks about it (and seems to be considering suicide)! And, in case you’re interested, my own cultural reference. This is a poem I particularly like, and I’d like to share it with you.

A Wish for my Children

                                                                                                              Evangeline Paterson

On this doorstep I stand

year after year

and watch you leaving

and think: May you not

skin your knees. May you

not catch your fingers

in car doors. May

your hearts not break.

May tide and weather

wait for your coming

and may you grow strong

to break

all webs of my weaving.         

                            (in Veronica Zundel (ed.) (1991) Faith in her Words, Lion Publishing P. 133)

PAGE 146

Ms Smith pokes fun at many groups in the novel (African Americans, scholars, both conservative and liberal, urban tribes…). There are many words which turn on a red light of alarm when somebody says them. One is  discrmination,for instance. Which one is mentioned here?

PAGE 147

Why does French pause before the word ‘work’? (  Why does he think Zora has ‘a full hand’?

PAGE 148

Something else to think about on the issue of affirmative actions.

PAGE 151

Carl Lewis: another cultural reference.

PAGE 153

What about the poem?

Para los alumnos de Oral 3 Turno Mañana

 

PAGE 154

Notice how Howard just sees one feature of each student.

PAGE 155

‘Art is the Western myth with which we both console ourselves and make ourselves.’ What do you think? 

 Why has he preserved ‘carefully’ his English accent?

What would you answer to Howard’s questions?

Victoria again, and the topic of beauty again.

PAGE 166

Why would Kiki be annoyed at being told that she was ‘a strong woman’?

 PGE 171

‘This was what she liked…’ Can you think of people who have that quality? Can you think of the quality you admire the most in the people you care for?

PAGE 172

Carlene has asked about Jerome, about Kiki’s looks… Do you find her intrusive? Rude?

PAGE 173

Hallelujah as a hymn deconstructing a hymn. Lots of cultural references! Do you know the song? What is a hymn? What does ‘to deconstruct’ mean? Which hymn is the song deconstructing?

PAGE 174

Kiki reflects on memories. Memories mingle, sometimes an ‘edited’ version becomes more real to you than what really happened.

Notice how often what happens makes her mind turn to her failed marriage (she uses the adjective. Would you use it?)

More cultural references: Gatsby, Taxi Driver, Buckley, Lennon, Maîtresse Erzulie… Which ones do you already know? Try and find out about the others.

 PAGE 175

Cultural ref: the Christian world, Western cultural and binary points of view.

PAGE 178

Bill O’Reilly. Another reference.

PAGE 179

Do you think Levi has a right to feel let down?

PAGE 180

From here and for some pages we’ll learn about this big corporation Levi works for. What can you say about it?

Also notice throughout these pages the character’s reactions to the news that they’ll have to work on Christmas Day.

PAGE 182

Who is Harold Bloom? What is Falstaff? Is half an hour listening to Levi on rap as valuable as half an hour with Bloom on Falstaff? What’s your opinion? And whose opinion is expressed in the text – the narrator’s or Levi’s?

PAGE 184

Cult ref: Tupac

PAGE 186

More of the racial question

PAGE 188

Again the question of race, again beauty.

PAGE 191

What is a brother in this context? And a nigger? What does Bailey mean when he says he know where Levi comes from?

PAGE 193

Cult ref: Gramsci (mentioned by Howard to Levi on p 181) and Rembrandt. Why the wrong spelling?

PAGE 199

Why was Zora so keen on taking this class? Because it would be such an asset in her career? Out of some morbid desire to be part of her father’s ex lover? To provoke her mother? To pretend so was open minded and thought nothing of Claire and the affair? Is she now trying to apologise to her mother or to provoke her? And what should Kiki Have done?

PAGE 200

Plath: another cult ref

Noam Chomsky: yes, you do get this reference. Now, is it a coincidence that he should appear when Zora is looking for something cerebral? And is it true that she doesn’t pay attention to beautiful faces, as her mother says (and she seems to admit)?

PAGE 207

Beauty again.

PAGE 209

More ref: the flood, Aspen, Flaubert, Foucault, Adorno, Austen

PAGE 210

And more! De Beauvoir, the Zomeister (with a pun on Zora), the salt of the earth, Kevin Bacon, Ezra Pound.

What does ‘here were people’ mean? (The topic of people and belonging continues on p 211).

PAGE 212

Cult ref: the Spoken Word

PAGE 214

What is beauty associated with here?

PAGE  217

 Two idioms for you!

PAGE 218

Mick  Jagger, Sam Shepard, Ginsberg, Ferlinghetti,Virgil, Pope, the Romantics (you’ll see about this poet and this movement in Language and Culture 3).

What is the purpose of Zora’s question?

PAGE 221

You don’t need to Google this name; go to the author’s note at the back to find out about Doc Brown.

Lengua y Cultura 3- Turno vespertino

Mensaje de la prof. Giussani para los alumnos de Lengua y Cultura 3 de Turno vespertino.

LYC 3 TURNO VESPERTINO

PRIDE AND PREJUDICE

1, There are many characters who get married or wish to do so. Describe the different motivations they have. Compare them to the motivations people have nowadays for marrying. Think of different people, not just yourself!!

2, What would have happened if Elizabeth had not come across Mr Darcy when she was in the Lake Disctrict with her aunt and uncle? Continue the story from there. Remember you can resort to coincidences (as the author herself does!) but you must keep to the conventions of those times!

3, Imagine you are the maid who is seen in the film, in the background, in the Bennet's household. Choose a member of the family and describe him / her from your point of view (again, remember that YOUR point of view is the maid's, not really YOURS).

1,     The Great Gatsby can be read as an allegory.

   First, look up the meaning of allegory, and find examples of well known allegories.

   Write about this allegory. Use different paragraphs to explain:

*  The general meaning of the allegory. (The beginning and the ending of the novel should give you a cue).

*  What each character stands for

   After working on this, read the author’s biography. Who do you learn about his life? Isn’t there a parallelism between the author’s life, Gatsby’s life and the ‘20s? Explain why (not). Check when the novel was written. Isn’t the novel also an instance of foreshadowing of the end of both the author and the ‘20s?

2,   One of the themes in The Great Gatsby is belonging. This is a pervasive theme in American literature and films. (Check the meaning of road movie. You’ve seen many, can you mention a few examples?) In what way is this theme present in the novel? Which characters ‘belong’? Which ones don’t? In this case too, at the beginning and at the end of the novel the author, through Nick, presents this topic quite explicitly. Find these or other instances.
