Blog Entry 16:Final Reflection

In this class I learned a lot and I have a better understanding of the literature elements, such as symbolism and tone. Also I’m able to identify the elements of the Monomyth in movies, which is very helpful to understand the meaning of the story. I liked the supernatural theme in our class and the blogging made it even more interesting. With the blogging and the feedback from the classmates, it was much easier to see my mistakes and helped me develop my writing skills. This class gave me an opportunity to see poems and stories, also movies from a different perspective; I’m able to see the hidden meaning in the poems, what the symbols represent and also the feelings of the poets. I’m able to identify the different stages in the Hero’s Quest, such as departure, initiation and return, as well to identify the hero in a movie and what is his goal. I really enjoyed and I would definitely recommend this class to other students.
