Beginner - Intermediate 等級
This is an introduction to the genre of Gothic Literature. All assignments are reading assignments. All assignments are short stories or shorter works so that the learner may get a feel for the Gothic before tackling the longer works like Frankenstein or Dracula. Learners who enjoy lore about vampires, witches, and ghosts etc. will enjoy this introduction to the Gothic. I have included three videos in each lesson. One video is about the topic (Vampires, witches, ghosts) one is about the author of the work that fits within that topic, and finally the last video is about the story I assigned which includes the learned topic. The first lesson is about the genre and a reading of Poe's "The Raven." The classes are presented in lectures. Learners can watch them, start, and stop them as they please. I encourage learners to leave me messages in the classroom about the short stories or topics for which I will respond. I would love to read the learner's thoughts and answer any questions or read any ghost stories the learner may have.
學習目標
In this introductory class, I expect the learner to learn the many elements and tropes present in classic Gothic Literature, as well as learn the subtype of metaphor called the metonymy. (Such as gloom and rain at a funeral symbolizing sorrow.)

其他詳情
學習需求
Leaners will have all the time they need to read the selections. Since this is a self-paced class, there should be no problems with reading speed.
父母的引導和規範
This is a Gothic (horror based) class so the reading selections might contain mild violence and things of a horrific nature. There is nothing in the class that is overly gory or disturbing. Vampires and witch lore is discussed, Because vampires are undead, there is some discussion of the dead and the misinterpretation of bodily decomposition.
供應清單
All the stories are supplied to the class via an attachment by the teacher.
