ENG910- Blog Post #2

This week my group was asked to create the time line entry for Clemence Houseman's The Were-Wolf. At first I was a bit intimidated by this task, considering that I was not (and still am not) fully comfortable with using the COVE tools to post work and exhibits online. It really helped working in a smaller group, as i found that the three of us were able to clairfy any questions for one another and gage how to go about creating the timeline post. In doing so, I definitely believe that I am now more equipped to use COVE for the rest of the semester, but I do still have some questions regarding it that I'm sure will be clarified in future lectures. As for working directly with Clemence Houseman's text, it made the decision for which text I want to present individualy very clear. Initially I wanted to do my presentation on The Moon Flower by Laurence Houseman, but after being exposed to the background of the text, I have changed my mind and have decided to focus my presentation on The Were-Wolf as well. I am intrigued by the feminist readings that the text has received and the context that has led to such readings, as well as having the female Werewolf character written by a female author. I am looking forward to diving further into the text and learning more about the feminist connotations within the images!
