Ghost of the present: final thoughts. this was ecstacy
http://haydukelivz.blogspot.com/2009/12/final-thoughts-this-was-extacy.html
Ghost of the present. Friday, December 11, 2009. Final thoughts. this was ecstacy. When I first heard that the class was focusing on Nabokov instead of Wallace Steven, I believe I was a little worried. Russian writers conjure images of cold, sterile, dry writing. Little did I know the ecstasy that awaited me. I liken this experience; my Nabokov to Humberts Lolita. December 13, 2009 at 11:28 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Studies in Nabokov: My final paper
http://iheartvlad.blogspot.com/2009/12/my-final-paper.html
Monday, December 7, 2009. I was the shadow of the waxwing slain. By the false azure in the windowpane;. I was the smudge of ashen fluff- and I. Lived on, flew on, in the reflected sky. And from the inside too, I’d duplicate. Myself, my lamp, an apple on a plate:. Uncurtaining the night, I’d let dark glass. Hang all the furniture above the grass,. And how delightful when a fall snow. Covered my glimpse of lawn and reached up so. As to make chair and bed exactly stand. And then the gradual and dual blue.

http://iheartvlad.blogspot.com/2009/11/tuesday-november-17.html
Tuesday, November 17, 2009. Tuesday, November 17. In my beginning, is my end'. Most author's later works are considered weaker, like Shakespeare's later works: The Tempest and The Winter's Tale.

Ghost of the present: things that are transparent
http://haydukelivz.blogspot.com/2009/12/things-that-are-transparent.html
Ghost of the present. Sunday, December 6, 2009. Things that are transparent. It now seems sort of redundant to talk about Transparent Things. Since it has passed, but we really did not seem to have enough, nor any time to discuss the work. The little time we did spend though, was beyond helpful in understanding the story especially when it came to narration/ authorial voice. Reading it after. We discussed it, i felt spoiled and privileged because i could see and understand the idea. And i got it! Your ri...

Ghost of the present. Monday, September 28, 2009. 8220;One of the latticed squares in the small cobwebby casement window at the turn of the staircase was glazed with ruby, and that raw wound among the unstained rectangles and its asymmetrical position-a knight’s move from the top-always strangely disturbed me.”. Can’t slay-out. This theme of myopia. Obscured, the stuff I can see is only Nabokov’s foreground. You really need to read this book with glasses. Chapter three page 11. Monday, September 21, 2009.

Studies in Nabokov: Initial Response to TT:
http://iheartvlad.blogspot.com/2009/11/initial-response-to-tt.html
Thursday, November 19, 2009. Initial Response to TT:. I sat down and read this story in its entirety, which is something that I don't usually do. Overall, I thought it was really strange, but I think maybe when I read it again it will make more sense. A few of the passages I found most interesting/ noticeable/ funny are these:. But because of who the author is, it made me pay attention. My biggest discovery however is that I believe Hugh Person (You Person) is supposed to be the story of A. Person fr...
