Journal #11: Plan of Attack for The Stranger

Mini-Stickies:
These will correspond with the pink sheet: "Guide for Analysis".
  • Pink=Narrative Voice/Narration
  • Orange=Plot and plot structure
  • Blue=Character/Characterization
  • Yellow=Setting
  • Green=Language/Syntax/Diction
Medium Stickies:
Help to pinpoint certain stylistic traits in the literature that may or may not have to do with a theme or motif.
Ex: conflicts, protagonist, point of view, etc.
  • Yellow=Techniques (Foreshadowing of the court, the weather in regards to Meursalt's mood)
  • Orange=Structure, Sound, Rhythm (dialogue is embedded within the paragraphs)
  • Blue=Anything else of interest

Large Stickies:
I plan to use large stickies to track larger ideas and glaring parallels such as motifs and themes. I will be able to write possible motifs/themes on these to help me remember.
  • Green=Motifs (Motif of lights)
  • Yellow=Themes (not sure of anything yet)
