SUMMARY:Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlett Letter with Carol Rubel lecture
DESCRIPTION:Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlett Letter with Carol Rubel \nGuided discussion\, examining themes of guilt\, judgement\, redemption\, and the lasting influence of Puritan society. \nFall approaches…and\, with it\, pumpkins\, Pilgrims and an historical narrative about the folks who brought us Plymouth Rock and harvest feasts. We all learned this back in grade school…right? \nBut is that all they bequeathed to us? \nMaybe not! The more stringent sect\, Puritans\, framed our national conscience with their attitudes\, restrictions\, and general intolerance for anything viewed outside their norm. \nFew literary works do a better job of bringing us smack into the duality of what life in a Puritan colony was really like than does Nathaniel Hawthorne’s classic work\, The Scarlet Letter. Following a guided discussion of the novel\, we’ll gather a second time to view the Demi Moore film adaptation. \nWhile reading the novel is encouraged\, don’t let the work’s size or style keep you away as we will provide a synopsis sufficient to let you both appreciate the major themes as well as use them for a springboard into their contemporary application. \nOctober 15th & 22nd \,12-1:30pm $5 /class \nOctober 15th & 22nd \,12-1:30pm $5 /day

SUMMARY:“A Christmas Carol” Part 3 with Carol Rubel
DESCRIPTION:“A Christmas Carol” …Part Three! \nFor the third year\, we return to the Dickens tale of reclamation and opportunity. \nBut this time\, we narrow our focus and look closely at the forces causing the seminal changes: the three Spirits. \nIn our past discussion\, we have explored the social and political conditions of England at the time as well as the developmental changes in the main character\, Ebeneezer Scrooge. \nThis time\, we look at the spirits as not only harbingers of Scrooge’s reclamation experience narrative\,but also\, as psychological drivers for not only characters but readers. \nWe honor Dickens’ intention to have his work “haunt the reader” with internal reflection by daring to examine whether our personal narratives might benefit from the same kind of visitations as did Ebeneezer!!! \nUsher in the holiday with our old friend … on Dec 3 from noon to 1:30
