Psychoanalytical Lens


I chose to to use the psychoanalytic lens to view the book with because I think it would be interesting to focus on how the characters think and why they make the decisions they make. We go deeper into their minds and also there is no one right answer because we won’t actually know why they make a choice, we have to make our best guess. Also you might discover a whole different reason for a character’s actions that you never thought of before. I’m hoping to red an interesting book that will have lots of different perspectives that we go deeper into detail on. I also considered the historical lens to understand more on the history of these characters. 
I believe a person’s history like how they were raised, what they have experienced, and the decisions they made all make up a person’s personality. Both lens go into detail on how and why a character is formed the way they are, and this fascinates me.

  2. I agree majorly with the part about "there is no right answer." I believe that in literature in general there is no wrong way to analyze a piece of text. Additionally, I think that talking about the different perspectives will be interesting because there are so many different characters that have many different intertwining relationships.

  4. I agree with you ricky we can never really know what a person is thinking because we cant go inside there head. But learning signals on how the people are feeling inside is pretty interesting.
