The Sound and the Fury
Notes: Use this edition of the book to look up the page numbers cited in these papers.
Quentin's section - Some notes I took on Quentin's section. Also, I apologize for the super long blocks of text, but I'm pretty sure that my notes are easier to understand than Faulkner's original text anyway.
Benjy's section - Some notes on Benjy's section.
King Lear
Notes: This is also my favorite play by Shakespeare. Granted, I've only read four of them, but I still really like this one.
King Lear paper - This paper was written in response to the following quote:
�During the 1960s critics �found confirmation of bleakness in their readings of the text� Their emphasis tended to be concerned with the indifference of the gods and the frailty of human life� with Lear progressing towards despair rather than towards redemption.� �R.A. Foakes
