DRACULA: Romantic, Gothic, Horror Story






Dear Students,

Since you are familiar with the "Twilight Saga" I thought we should analyze the original vampire story "Dracula" by Bram Stoker.

Please read the first 200 pages of "Dracula" until 9.03.2017. You can find the book as PDF version here: 
http://www.planetebook.com/ebooks/Dracula.pdf
or if you want to purchase it as a published book you can get the Macmillan Version from Homerkitapevi  in Beyoğlu:

PLEASE DO NOT WATCH THE FILM: I am not going to prepare the Midterm questions from the movies.

Enjoy the book!

How to analyze a novel

The Great Gatsby- American Dream, Jazz Age and the Roaring Twenties




Dear Students,

Let us start with John Scott Fitzgerald's novel The Great Gatsby. It will give us a nice idea about the classic American novel and the Jazz Age. It is easy to read so I want you to read at least 60 pages until our class on 16.02. I want you to imagine and symphatize with the characters while reading, so DO NOT EVER NEVER WATCH THE FILM until we end analyzng the novel.

You can find the book here:
