Actually, laddybuck, we do have a plan! Read “Araby” from Joyce’s Dubliners. Once you’ve read the whole story, go to this excerpt.
Here’s what you want to do with the excerpt:
- annotate at least three segments of the text – – words or short phrases – – for characterization, labeling each segment with mode (ID/DD; ID: action: “lazy,” etc. etc.) and trait.
- annotate at least three segments of the text – – words or short phrases – – for setting, labeling each segment for scope, scale, and semiotics.
If you see a segment that’s already been coded but you disagree with the coding, simply include your alternative in a reply to the original annotation.
