Frankenstein: Vol 2, Chpts 8&9

Pre-number: Thesis writing review, semi colon review, context review, citation review.

_____ A strong thesis is arguable.  Someone has to be able to disagree with you.
_____ A thesis is a complete sentence (for a paper that is fewer than 10 pages, you really should not need more than one sentence to make a clear argument).
_____ A thesis takes a stand or draws a conclusion, rather than summarizing or simply announcing a subject.
_____ A thesis is as specific as possible, rather than vague or general.

_____ A thesis expresses one main idea, & does not make too many points all at once.

1. Check books & vocab & architecture

Discussion
Let's look at the creature and Victor through the lens of Erikson. Some basic info on the guy.

Big question to answer:
1. At what stage is Victor?
2. At what stage is the creature?
3. At what stage did Victor encounter struggles?
4. At what stage did the creature encounter struggles?

As time permits ...
Empathy versus sympathy. What's the difference?

Personal responsibility ...
