Eyes Journal 4

No reading tonight.

In the last journal you examined how Hurston characterizes Janie, Logan and Joe in a single passage.  Now I would like you to pull and analyze quotations that support or conflict with your assertions from the chapters we've read. In order to offer a well rounded argument, you need to consider how other characters view Janie and her responses?  Also consider how the reader's image of Janie is shaped by the characterization of other characters such as Nanny.

Be prepared for a discussion on how Hurston develops her characterization and what she seems to suggest by it.
