“By the time I respond to this post at the end of the semester, I hope to have a greater proficiency in html and a better understanding of what can be done with a VM and why we should want to do these things. But […]

These are words.
Here are some more words.
What happens when I do this?
And what about this?

Brianne Briggmann wrote a new blog post “Moving on to an outcome” in the group American Studies: 5 years, 7 months ago
I haven’t posted in a long time. I’ve been getting lost in rabbit holes every time I sit down and try to write a post, and I’m finding myself attempting to make some massive work displaying the parallelism Morri […]

“Distraction skills are important because (1) they can temporarily stop you from thinking about your pain and, as a result, (2) they give you time to find an appropriate coping response.”

Brianne Briggmann edited the blog post Additional Comment on Parrots, Self-Harm, and That Violet in the group American Studies: 6 years ago
I posted this little tid-bit of written thinkING as a comment onto the last post that I made, but we all know that nobody reads the comments so here it is as a stand alone post (A.K.A. it’s not worth reading if you haven’t read the original):
I wonder if Toni Morrison is furthering the symbolism of Rose Dear’s death along with Violet’s ‘dis…[Read more]

I want to add one thought to this that may or may not be important, but is certainly worth recording: I wonder if Toni Morrison is furthering the symbolism of Rose Dear’s death along with Violet’s ‘dissociation’ […]

“Maybe everybody has a renegade tongue yearning to be on its own. Violet shuts up. Speaks less until ‘uh’ or ‘have mercy’ carry almost all of her part of the conversation. Less excusable than a wayward mouth i […]

Brianne Briggmann edited the blog post Ascending Through the Texts in the group American Studies: 6 years, 6 months ago
I will be the first to admit that I do not have much background knowledge on the Harlem Renaissance coming into Lewis’ book. I do take some blame for this myself as I haven’t done thorough independent research on Harlem in the 1920’s, but I’m going to shed most of the blame on current high school curricula. However, as I am beginning to read When H…[Read more]

Brianne Briggmann edited the blog post Some Defining Fun in the group American Studies: 6 years, 7 months ago
Hello folks!
So during our discussion today when we were trying to answer the questions “What brings people together?” and “What binds people together,” I was thinking about how helpful it would be if I had the definitions of the words ‘bring‘ and ‘bind‘ right in front of me. Even if I had looked them up in class, we would not have had enough…[Read more]

Brianne Briggmann edited the blog post Churning Thoughts on Circulation in the group American Studies: 6 years, 11 months ago
In Parable of the Sower, Lauren and her group (well, really everyone who is not super rich) have had to revert to preindustrial methods of survival. (Disclaimer: that statement is flawed; those ‘preindustrial’ methods have been used in modern times, but not to the extent that people in Butler’s world have used them). Agriculture is a highly pre…[Read more]

Okay, so I’ve been wanting to do a blog post on the relationship between personal pride and hermeneutics. Basically, I want to do a ton of research on the psychology of pride, and do more research on h […]

Brianne Briggmann wrote a new blog post Narrative Foreclosure in the group American Studies: 7 years, 2 months ago
So on the syllabus, in an asterisked note, Beth included that there are multiple meanings of the word “foreclosure,” explicitly stating that it can be applied to narratives/storytelling. This sparked my int […]

Brianne Briggmann wrote a new blog post Dante and Beatrice in the group American Studies: 7 years, 4 months ago
In class on Monday, my group began to question what (real, not fictional) Beatrice’s relationship was to Dante. Ari looked it up, and told us that Dante and Beatrice had only met twice before she had died at a v […]

A few weeks ago, Frank discussed in his blog post the important role names play in understanding the significance of a character. When reading Jazz, the name Dorcas really stuck out to me, so I decided to do so […]

For my first blog post, I want to answer the question Dr. McCoy presented to us on Wednesday after watching Africans in America: America’s Journey Through Slavery. The question was, “Given what you have seen so far, how does the video cross check with what you have read in A Mercy?” The film discusses the slow transition from impermanent…[Read more]
