In-Class Reflection Of Antigone

Introduction:

Throughout the course of this semester, we have written a series of four essays on the books we have read. Each paper that I wrote, I tried to approach differently. Although I faced many challenges throughout my writing process, I felt that each product turned out great. The main difficulties I have encountered during writing, this semester were: understanding the topic, explaining my claim, and not summarizing the text. When writing the essays, I found myself constantly having to read, and re-read the prompts that were assigned. It was not until the third essay, when I finally realized why I was not understanding the prompts. It was because I was just reading the texts instead of consuming the texts. Meaning, when I was reading

Both of these in-class responses were very similar in style but different in the way that I approached them. These responses are similar because both are written in the same style. By that, I mean the way that were instructed to write them, as I recall, were very similar. I also prepared for both, in similar ways. I basically just read over the text, took notes, and went over them in class. They are different, of course, in content. But the way that I approached each written work was different. For the Lament, it was more of a personal writing piece. I was able to write based upon myself. With the Antigone writing, it was more about the book rather myself, which of course is different than the lament.

Part IV: When it comes to the story that most related to my identity, it would be Antigone. This story is like mine because, no matter what, when it comes to my family there is nothing I wouldn’t do for them. Like Antigone, I am very stubborn and opinionated when it comes to things that I believe in. This is also shown in my writing. When I write, I always feel very strongly about whatever it is I am writing. I also take great pride in my writing. Whenever I write something I feel very strongly about the finish product, know matter anyone
