The Final Blog
SPAN 312....where to start? Jon said he wanted us to write whatever came into our minds so here goes...
Wikipedia and I will never be friends. While I do have more respect for articles that make it to “featured status”, I plan to never make more edits in the future (sorry Jon). As for the novels... I still am not convinced that I The Supreme is the most amazing book. However, I’ll try not to be so negative. I DID like The President, in fact I wouldn’t mind reading it again in the future. I liked The General in His Labyrinth. Facundo wasn’t so bad either.
While I’m terrible at coming up with adjectives that start with “c”, I enjoyed the discussions we had in class. I’m still not quite sure why we were never given 5 or 10 minutes to work in groups but were given 7, 9, or 11 minutes. I wish we could have learned more about each author because I feel that in 5 years the only thing I will remember from this course will be Miguel Angel Asturias. That being said, I feel like I have a better understanding of Latin American literature and hope to read more.
All in all, a pretty good class. I'm not a blogging pro and wikipedia still boggles my mind, but I guess some things will never change.
