A Playlist for the Players: “Boy My Greatness” Characters Through Music

by Emi Harmon For this project, I wanted to create a playlist for a few of the characters in the unreleased play by Zoe Senese-Grossberg, “Boy My Greatness.” I felt that using one performance art (music) to look at another (theatre) would be relevant, especially since the play was written recently, as were a goodContinue reading “A Playlist for the Players: “Boy My Greatness” Characters Through Music”

I’m Scared There Are Other Worlds inside of My World

I walked by a stretch of grass and saw a shriveled figure among the stems. I called out to it. “What has happened to you?” The mishapen body cried back, “There are other worlds inside of my world.” I approached the creature. I took its hand up in my grasp. “There is only this world,”Continue reading “I’m Scared There Are Other Worlds inside of My World”

And They Were Roommates (But Actually Just Roommates)

It’s safe to say, thanks to my last project being Macbeth themed, that I like Macbeth. I have a normal amount of love for the play.

The Split Chestnut and Jane Eyre

Reflection: Why does your response to this literature matter?             For my unessay project, I wanted to do something that involved mixed media/painting. I thought that this would be a welcome change from the traditional essay that I had written earlier in the semester, and also give me some more opportunity to play around withContinue reading “The Split Chestnut and Jane Eyre”

Did You Know Playing Cards Actually Have Meanings?

Cora Rodriguez Rethinking Modern British Literature Project 2 For this unessay, I had a vision. I fell in love with Mexican Gothic and instantly knew I wanted to draw something from that. In my art, Noemí is very stylish as usual in her wine-colored gown featured on the cover of the book. I didn’t knowContinue reading “Did You Know Playing Cards Actually Have Meanings?”

Playlist of Frankenstein

By Ryleigh Simmons https://open.spotify.com/embed/playlist/7dGQFIC3hv4hE542MVyIOU?utm_source=generator For my project, I created a playlist based on Mary Shelley’s novel Frankenstein. The songs I included in the playlist connect to my interpretation of the themes, characters, and overall aesthetics of the book. I was inspired to complete this playlist by a previous student, who also made a Frankenstein playlistContinue reading “Playlist of Frankenstein”

Ophelia

Cora Rodriguez Rethinking Modern British Literature Unessay Project 1 Ophelia For my unessay, I made an art piece of Gertrude and Ophelia from Hamlet. Ophelia stands on the riverbank watching Ophelia’s lifeless body float face-down below her, flowers around her head like a halo. I drew the figures and the flowers, while the backgrounds IContinue reading “Ophelia”
