Lorca journal 2 and 3

So sorry this is late.

Read  Act 2
1.  Identify five lines of the play that intrigue you.  They do not need to connect to each other, but each should start you thinking or illicit an emotional response- think cool factor.  Write all five quotations down and then choose three quotations to look closely at and discuss (annotate, connect to other moments, connect to themes, question, etc.).


Read Act 3
1.  Examine Lorca's treatment of honor, guilt and/or silence.  How does Lorca address these issues?  What happens to the characters who embrace or reject the concepts?

2. In Act 3 Lorca creates dream like elements.  To do this he uses mythical elements.  Consider how the staging, characterization and lines create mythical elements and examine their effect Lorca.


3.  What elements of tragedy does the play embrace and reject?
