We studied imagery and foreshadowing in today's session along with characterization. In this regard, we discussed how Curley's wife becomes a sympathetic figure who like Crooks, Lennie, George and Candy is frustrated with life and laments an unfulfilled dream. I distributed a letter written by John Steinbeck discussing his intent in creating this character. We then examined how Lennie's accidentally killing mice and then a puppy foreshadow his accidentally breaking Curley's wife's neck in the same manner. I then defined imagery and discussed how figurative language often creates imagery. I also distributed an exercise on identifying imagery in the novel which Joshua will complete for homework.
