Final Blog Reflection

This English class was very interesting and I think I learned a lot, especially about understanding poetry. There is obvious advancement from the first blog until now. In the beginning I had a lot of trouble in breaking down the poems and understanding them, but once we got over it I started to understand much more and started to like and appreciate poetry more. Luckily it was not high pressure class and new way of doing everything trough blogs was also great way of learning because we were able to see other’s blogs and interact.

I liked post by Shannon Moneymaker-The Excalibur. Merlin is one of my all times favorite characters. I did not do any readings on him, so I was reminded to look it up again, and I think that Shannon did a great job. All in all this was great class.

Synopsis and Analysis

 The Gunslinger aka Roland of Gilead is the last surviving soldier of the White Army from the place in the parallel universe where “the world has moved on”. This saying that world has moved on is little complicated to explain. It means that that the world we know is ceased to exist, and everything started with big drought that caused civil war to break out and was followed with total collapse of society. For example, after collapse there is no more progress in society, all technology is dead and nothing is functioning any more, even people and animals are defected with extra limbs and other anomalies.  Roland is on a quest to catch the man in black who’s his archenemy, and that’s the first step on his long journey to his ultimate goal- reaching the Dark Tower, or as we would say in our class the first threshold . He did not choose to do this it is all “Ka”. The closest definition of Ka is destiny, it is force that guides him and helps him on his hero’s quest. Dark Tower is the place he has to reach in order to save not only his and our world but the all the worlds that exist, and in the same time he does not know what’s in the Dark Tower or what is he supposed to do when he gets there. He doesn’t know all this in the beginning but as the story unfolds he gets the sense that the bigger things are on line than his personal quest. On his way through the desert he stops to spend the night with the farmer Brown and his crow Zoltan, where we learn about his time spent in Tull, the city he visited prior to coming to desert. In Tull man in black set up the trap for the gunslinger, he rose from dead one person and convinced everyone that Roland is the antichrist and needs to be stopped, but they are not match for gunslinger who ends up killing everyone in the town. Roland leaves the farm and comes to the way station and meets Jake Chambers 11 year old kid who joins him in his hunt. Jake is originally from our world, to be more exact from the New York City. Man in black went into his world to kill him and to “draw” him in to the All-World, because in part one Jake is supposed to be sacrificed by gunslinger in order to talk with man in black, but in part II Drawing of the Three, he is brought back again from the different time and becomes part of the gunslinger’s “Ka-tet”. Ka-tet is group of people who came together under influence of Ka to do certain task, and who are very powerful while together. They proceed to the mountain where they have to go through underground tunnels. While in underground we also find out more about Roland’s past and how he had to beat his teacher Cort in order to become the gunslinger. There they get attacked by “Slow Mutants” creatures from underground. In the meantime they get close to the man in black and gunslinger has a chance to catch him, but Jack gets in  trouble and gunslinger has to make choice between saving  Jack and catching up with the man in black. This is the choice that he knew is going to come for him as a sort of a test, or another threshold for the hero. Roland feels that he doesn’t really have a choice here because it is all Ka’s doing.  He chooses to go after the man in black, and just before Jack falls to the abyss he tells Roland “Go then, there are other worlds that these”. This gave us indication that they might see each other again. Roland catches up with the man in black and has palaver with him, and the man in black reads gunslinger’s fate from cards. He finds out that in order to reach the Dark Tower he needs to bring three other people to the All- World from the other world to join him, and one of the people is Jake who just died in this world but still lives in other world, and that his true enemy is the one who controls the Dark Tower. Here we get hints of what lies ahead and starts to be more intriguing in a sense that we start wandering what he will find in the Dark Tower. The man in black tries to persuade gunslinger to give up on his quest, but gunslinger refuses and the man in black makes him sleep for 10 years. When he wakes up he finds dry bones beside him and assumes that these belong to the man in black. Gunslinger continues his quest and starts to think of ways to bring the rest of the crew to the All-World. Part I stops here and we go to search for part II to see what happens next in this very promising start of the story of epic proportions.

Archetypes

The Gunslinger, full name Roland Deschain - is a typical warrior/wanderer archetype. He’s the last gunslinger from the long tradition of gunslingers that fought on the side of good, and he is in a life long search for the Dark Tower which represents this hero’s quest. He has all the traits that heroes have, most importantly – mission. He is strong, brave, but in the same time merciless toward his enemies and his friends also, and he is ready to sacrifice them in order to reach the Tower, and also has some supernatural characteristics like his very long life. In the part I he is searching for man in black to reveal him path to the Dark Tower. His own world has "moved on," and he is now is this new world for the purpose of finding a man.

The Man in Black - is a wizard archetype. He is Roland’s nemesis and was responsible for the end of Roland's world and the deaths of those who were close to Roland. He has many powers and he can even raise the dead like he did in the town of Tull.  The man in black is a wizard who has lived for thousands of years. The man in black has answers that the gunslinger needs about the Dark Tower.

Jake - is like the gunslinger warrior/wanderer archetype. Jake is a boy around 10 years old, he was drawn out of his own world into the world of the gunslinger by the man in black. He’s just an innocent boy who finds himself in the strange world on a mission, which he accepts like through warrior that he is. Jake is smart and strong and learns fast so that the gunslinger sees big potential in him right away.  The man in black intends Jake to be a sacrifice that the gunslinger must give to get the answers he has been seeking for many years. Later on in the Dark Tower story he himself is going to become the gunslinger.

The Gunslinger and I

The question arises, why am I writing about this story? First I wanted to just mechanically dissect the story with symbols, mono-myth, thresholds etc, but gave up because there is more to this story than that, and it is kind of a personal nature. Instead I gave the synopsis with explanations to get the reader more info and chance to understand the plot; because I read the book twice and I still looked for other sources on the internet to figure out certain details.  The answer to the question lies in our similarity in archetypes which are the same and similarities in personality. The main characteristic of the gunslinger is his sense of a mission. While his mission is to save the world, mine is little less ambitious, and it is concerned with saving me. I like him always had a sense of mission and I was always restless just like him. I like to travel a lot and see new places and some kind of adventure is always on my mind. I would say that I was driven by the same instincts that are in the gunslinger’s mind when I decided to leave my home country and move here all by myself- it was a great adventure. Further more, both of us have that nature that can not tolerate injustice with the difference that he can kill evil and unjust men ruthlessly but I can’t, but I would like that I can; and that’s the one of the things I appreciate about him- no mercy. There are more things that make us similar like the fact that both of us are in some kind of trouble all the time. Like him when he was a teenager I have also seen the war first hand and learned about what kind of things are human beings capable of doing. I early lost that childish romantic notion that all people are good and we are all big happy family that love each other and rest of the crap. Even though the war made me become a pacifist, which is quiet opposite of what war did to the young gunslinger; I still see the valid point in his way of doing things, many times there is no better cure for some other then the good old bullet. In conclusion, I’ve become more aware of all these similarities between us while reading the book for the second time and it made me realize that those are more important and personal way to pay the homage to this wonderful text.

Blog Entry 3.5 Coraline Essay

My main archetype is Wanderer and second is Warrior. The first thing about my archetype is inability of being static. That translates mainly to boredom of everyday mundane tasks. I have a big urge to travel and explore, and that might have something to do with my moving from my home country to USA on my own. If there is an opportunity for adventure, I’ll take it with open arms. Other traits of my archetype include excitement about discovering new things and learning new things. There are also some negative traits, like taking risks that are not all that necessary.

With Coraline I see all main traits of my archetype in her archetype. First, she gets bored very quickly, for example when her mother asks her to “Draw something” p( 17), she quits after trying to draw the mist for ten minutes. Also when her mother asks her to read a book or watch the video, she answers “I don’t want to do these things. I want to explore.”p (6). She goes out to meet her neighbors right away and asks a lot of questions, and when she finds the locked door in the drawing room she insists to get the door unlocked so she can take a look. There is evident need for exploring, so she goes outside to explore the garden with tennis court and most importantly the well. This is where we discover her main trait in her Wanderer archetype-she goes to explore the well precisely because she was warned that it might be dangerous. There is also other example, when she goes back to the door again to unlock it and checks it out just because she has an urge to do so, and that is very understandable from my point of view because we are the same archetypes and have the same urges.

Coraline is also a warrior archetype because she has the fighting spirit and she is brave. The proof of her bravery is when she goes back to the other flat to rescue her parents even though she very well knows that is dangerous. She herself learned what the bravery means because she told the cat an example of her father rescuing her from the wasps and then coming back for his glasses after knowing how dangerous it is.

Knowing my archetype helped me recognize the reasoning behind Coraline’s decision making. I for example, felt her excitement when she first went to the other flat and saw the wanders like the toys that fly around, mice that perform just for her, or great food made just for her and not the usual stuff that her dad makes. All this is very tempting for these archetypes and they are ready to make some sacrifices like leaving you real parents in order to get more exciting ones who don’t brag a lot and let us play all day and eat whatever we want.

For others knowing my main archetype is helpful in a way that helps them understand the story better and gives them ability to recognize the different archetypes of the same character.

Blog Entry 3.4 Final Project Introduction

For my final project I decided to analyze The Dark Tower part I – The Gunslinger by Stephen King. The whole book has seven parts and over 3000 pages, which would be too long to do for this project so I’m going to stick with the part I, which is around 300 pages long. This is the longest and most exciting book I’ve ever read, and not to mention -100% supernatural. I read the book few years back and I’m starting today again to refresh my memory because it is little bit complex with characters, parallel worlds, and switching between past and present.

First I’ll start reading the book. On my next blog entry I plan to present the story and write the plot. Following entry will be concerned with the hero’s quest, symbols and archetypes. Third entry will be first draft with author’s info, plot and my analysis. Fourth entry will be my final draft.

3.3 Entry Blog ideas for final project

I will probably analyze one of the short stories by Stephen King, because he has plenty and they’re all have supernatural elements and of course I like his stories.

3.2 Blog Entry Macbeth scene

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOkyZWQ2bmQ

I have chosen this sleepwalking scene from a theater played by Judi Dench. What I liked about it is a very dramatic performance by actress who brought out the depth of Lady Macbeth’s despair. The scene is showing Lady Macbeth sleepwalking and talking about her bloody hands that can not be washed, and she is being observed by noun who saw her sleepwalking before and who was joined by priest to witness the scene. Bloody hands are symbol that means murder and in this case the worst kind of murder – regicide. The enormity of the crime is too much for Lady Macbeth to bear, so her guilty conscience comes alive at night. The guilty conscience part is often seen in tragedies that asks us was it all worth it?

Blog Entry 3.1 Macbeth

The picture shows Macbeth and the Lady Macbeth. Macbeth is shown looking at his bloody hands with his dismayed face, while Lady Macbeth is positioned behind him. She is keeping her hand on his head and looking at his hands with fearful eyes. Hi is having his face and his shirt also bloodied. I like this picture for a few reasons. First, picture is in color and is very graphic, I can see the red blood clearly which helps bring more drama to it. What is clear right away is sense of guilt and regret on their faces. Black background is helpful also because it isolates them and brigs the focus to the right place. Lady Macbeth is positioned in the back and looks like she's lurking from the shadows, like she is the one behind the murder. She looks worried but it seems to be trying to comfort Macbeth and saying " it's OK, you did what you had to do my love". It's a very convincing story telling picture.

GUNSLINGER- from the Dark Tower book by Stephen King

Warrior archetypes are very interesting for me mostly because they are on the mission. I’m always on some kind of mission myself, but small and peaceful. My last big mission was coming to this country which was very adventures and included taking risks. There is something very appealing in going to adventure and setting of to the unknown . Warriors are strong, brave, ruthless and their sense of self righteousness is amazing. This image appeals to me because Gunslinger is the ultimate warrior. Many warriors go to save their kingdom or the world but Gunslinger goes to a mission to save not just our world but all the other worlds that exist parallel to our world. He’s not from this world and he’s the last remaining gunslinger of the white army and in the same time the last obstacle for dark forces in destroying all life and existence itself.

Blog Entry 2.1 Goblin Market

Christina Rossetti was born in London on December 5^th 1830. She comes from a family of poets; her father and brother were both poets. Rossetti's first poems were written in 1842 and were printed by her grandfather. In 1850, under the pseudonym Ellen Alleyne, she contributed seven poems to the journal The Germ, which had been founded by her brother William Michael and his friends.

Goblin market is a story about two sisters, forbidden fruits and the goblin men. Sisters lived together in the house and have to leave every day to get the water from the stream. One day while going to stream they heard goblin men calling on them to buy fruit. Laura was very tempted to try the fruit and stayed behind her sister and went to goblin men. She did not  have the money but she offered lock of hair and “a tear more rare than a pearl”.  After eating the fruit and picking out one of the seeds she went home. Her sister Lizzie told her the story about Jeanie who also eat the fruit from goblin men and died within the year. The next day while working around the house Laura was longing for the evening and meeting with goblin men, but when the time came she no longer could hear the goblin men’s cry but Lizzie still did. Laura could not buy the fruit and fell into depression. When winter came Laura stopped her house work altogether. She remembers that she had a seed and when she plants it nothing happens which brings her even more harm. Lizzie decides to go to buy some fruit in hope it will help Laura who was dying. She got the silver penny and was greeted very friendly by goblins. After goblins realize that she wants to pay only with money and take fruits with her, they turn very hostile and start kicking and beating her and try to make her eat the fruit, but she refuses and they drench her in fruit pulp and juice. She escapes the goblins and returns home to her sister. Laura eats pulp and juice from her sister and the next morning she recovers and they live happily ever after.

Symbolism

Apples, lemons, figs, oranges, dates, melons- fruit can symbolize many things like forbidden fruit and temptation, it certainly has sexual connotation. It looks to me that all these different fruits represent different types of men and woman who are out there, hence the “all ripe together”-line 15, or “taste them and try”-line 25.

Cat’s face, whisked a tail, rat’s pace, crawled like a snail, wombat prowled obtuse and furry, a ratel tumbled hurry-scurry - these repetitive symbols must represent the some of the men qualities.

“She clipped a precious golden lock,
She dropped a tear more rare than pearl,”- because she has no money but she has to pay, she offers her virginity to the goblin men. I thing the clipping of the “golden lock” means losing virginity.

“They lay down, in their curtained bed:
Like two blossoms on one stem,
Like two flakes of new-fallen snow,
Like two wands of ivory…”-this probably represents the love of two people and how close they are or maybe were in one time  but are not anymore.

"Come buy, come buy," – constant repeating represents constant temptations and struggle in girl’s mind.

“Racing, whisking, tumbling, hobbling;”- also represents those qualities of men that could be tempting for women.

“One day remembering her kernel-stone”-this means that Laura remembers what she lost and suffers.

Archetypes

Goblin men- represent every type of evil doer; here concretely they offer forbidden fruit. They are the bad guys in the story that offer temptations.

Laura- represents typical good girl, like princess or Eva who was weak character and could not resist the temptation, so she went for it, in this case probably fell in love and got hurt.

Lizzie- represents smart character, one who likes to use brain over hurt and is always ready to jeopardize its own safety in order to save the loved one.

This poem is about love, temptations and loss. There is ongoing conflict between temptation to fall in love again and risk of being hurt and staying clear from men. It’s a story that many women can relate to, so poet is trying to warn them not to repeat the mistake that she and many women before her made. Resist and you shall be saved.

Blog Entry 1.3 Poem Breakdown

I have chosen poem by Amy Lowell and it is called The Camellia Tree of Matsue. After reading many poems on different web sites this one finally caught my intention for the reason I can not explain yet, but I’ll give my best shot to try to figure it out. Amy Lowell   was born in Brookline, Massachusetts in 1874 and was a businesswoman, civic leader, and horticulturalist. Lowell posthumously won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1926.

In this poem I encountered a lot of  symbolism, in this order: Matsue, Camellia Tree, blossoms, white, honey wax, pink, fair coral, gateway, wander, garden, trailing its roots, rustling silk, the scrape, gravel, the tree, flowers, erect, peering, shoji, master, gardener, axe, spouted, stump, the hold, quivered.

Matsue is a city in the Japan and the same named castle. The Camellia tree is a tree that grows in Asia, and the flowers are used for tea. Blossoms are the flower of a plant, especially of one producing an edible fruit. White is a color without hue at one extreme end of the scale of grays, opposite to black. Honey wax is a solid, yellowish, nonglycerine substance allied to fats and oils, secreted by bees, plastic when warm and melting at about 145°F, variously employed in making candles, models, casts, ointments, etc., and used by bees in constructing their honeycomb. Pink is a color varying from light crimson to pale reddish purple. Coral is the hard, variously colored, calcareous skeleton secreted by certain marine polyps. Gateway is an entrance or passage that may be closed by a gate. Wander is a verb and it means to ramble without a definite purpose or objective; roam, rove, or stray. Garden is a plot of ground, usually near a house, where flowers, shrubs, vegetables, fruits, or herbs are cultivated. Root is a part of the body of a plant that develops, typically, from the radicle and grows downward into the soil, anchoring the plant and absorbing nutriment and moisture. Rustling is a verb; it means to make a succession of slight, soft sounds, as of parts rubbing gently one on another, as leaves, silks, or papers. Silk is the soft, lustrous fiber obtained as a filament from the cocoon of the silkworm. The scrape is an act or instance of scraping. Gravel is small stones and pebbles, or a mixture of these with sand. Tree is a plant having a permanently woody main stem or trunk, ordinarily growing to a considerable height, and usually developing branches at some distance from the ground. Flower is a plant, considered with reference to its blossom or cultivated for its floral beauty. Erect means to be upright in position or posture. Peer means to peep out or appear slightly. Shoji is a light screen consisting of a framework of wood covered with paper or other translucent material, used originally in Japanese homes as one of a series of sliding panels between the interior and exterior or between two interior spaces. Master is the male head of a household. Gardener is a person who is employed to cultivate or care for a garden. Axe is an instrument with a bladed head on a handle or helve, used for hewing, cleaving, chopping etc. Spout is a verb, it means to emit or discharge forcibly in a stream or jet. Stump is the lower end of a tree or plant left after the main part falls or is cut off. Hold means something to hold a thing by, as a handle; something to grasp. Quiver is a verb, it means to shake with a slight but rapid motion; vibrate tremulously; tremble.

This poem is full of Japanese symbolism, and the camellia tree is the main subject, which is not surprising considering that the poet is horticulturalist and has a great knowledge of trees. For her this tree must represent something or someone of a great significance and beauty, which is obvious from her description of it, including beautiful colors. White represents something good and maybe innocent considering its connection with the blossom, and pink represents probably perfection. It seems to me what had happened next is that during the night someone was getting visits from someone in the house who is really not part of the house because it says that” The Camellia Tree would leave its place by  the gateway “. And the part with” Trailing its roots behind it like a train of rustling silk”, sounds like someone’s long hair or maybe a night gown. Seems to me that these night visits were happening until someone’s father maybe decided to put the stop on it. Also, in the process someone’s heart was broken.

Anybody there?

I always loved supernatural, from ghosts and ferries in early age to the ultimate question of God. I love vampires and the people with supernatural abilities; I’m also big fan of books with this theme, notably Stephen King, Dean Koontz, Anne Rice etc. Besides these themes question of existence of God has been bothering me trough my whole life. When I was younger I use to read bible in hope to find the answer, but the bible is little complicated and it does not make much sense because is very contradictory and is not scientific at all. Besides that, I don’t like the idea that there is possibility of hell where you could end up cooking though eternity. What I’m looking for is scientific research that is going to provide the answer. There are of course two sides to this scientific approach, on the one side there are authors like Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens who are using evolution and churches’ misdeeds throughout history to claim that religion is bad for us. I agree with most what they’re saying considering church and bible, but this question must be outside the church. On the other side there are web sites like http://www.doesgodexist.org/ which are trying to prove that god is there trough scientific analysis. This question is very complex, and I will continue to research it, if anyone has any thoughts on this feel free to post it.
