Group Members: Hannah Fahy, Hannah Jewell, Kyle Regan, Leila Sassouni, Jaffre Aether

The first major decision of our group was to determine the pages we wanted to review. For that, we chose the first […]
Jaffre Aether wrote a new blog post Writing with Machine Reading in the group Digital Humanities: 3 years, 5 months ago

In working with Voyant Tools, I cannot help but reflect on how machine reading can also make us better (or maybe not better, but different) writers. To start exploring how I feel about writing in conjunction with […]
Jaffre Aether edited the blog post A Language of Expression and Action: Speech Acts and Coding in the group Digital Humanities: 3 years, 7 months ago

I ran into the concept of speech-acts last semester, and while finding the thought interesting, I did not find it relevant at the time. But I find the concept revived once more as our class begins writing in […]
Jaffre Aether edited the blog post Group 5 Reflection in the group Nineteenth-Century Studies: 3 years, 9 months ago

The aim of our project is to situate the themes of our novel in a physical and historical context. By way of this, our thematic map allows for a visualization of the physical spaces that influenced the writers […]
Jaffre Aether wrote a new blog post Victorian Literature and Emotion in the group Nineteenth-Century Studies: 3 years, 10 months ago

I suppose the most interesting thing I learned about Victorian Literature this semester was just how emotional it can be. I had already read Middlemarch prior, and was touched at the emotion and sentiment risen […]
Jaffre Aether wrote a new blog post Spaces in Victorian England: Wuthering Heights and Reuben Sachs in the group Nineteenth-Century Studies: 3 years, 10 months ago

Between these two texts, there is the notion that to love something is to necessitate a killing of that something. And in both cases, I cannot help but wonder if the love causing death is because the love is […]
Jaffre Aether wrote a new blog post Class and Culture: Wuthering Heights and Great Expectations in the group Nineteenth-Century Studies: 3 years, 11 months ago

As I had discussed in my comment for Tuesday’s reading, the ontology of gentility is a major topic within Great Expectations, and I think beyond Great Expectations, it is a major topic in Wuthering Heights as […]
Jaffre Aether wrote a new blog post Liminality in Great Expectations and Wuthering Heights in the group Nineteenth-Century Studies: 3 years, 11 months ago

While everything about Ms. Havisham is greatly interesting, nothing could be more fascinating about her than the clocks that surround her. These clocks are not ticking, but rather, are stuck on a specific time […]
Jaffre Aether wrote a new blog post Social Networks in Great Expectations and London in 1819 in the group Nineteenth-Century Studies: 3 years, 11 months ago

One part of Great Expectations that I found interesting was Pip and his family’s experience with the convicts, and specifically, Pip feeding the convict. Of course, Pip feeding the convict was done out of fear, […]
