Formalism and Faust.

In this second partial we have to read Faust, which is a novel about a man that makes a pact with the devil, it was a really attractive option, and that's why we picked that novel. Formalism will help me understand better the literature, let's start explaining the its meaning. 

 

What is Formalism?

 

-It refers to critical approaches that analyze, interpret, or evaluate the inherent features of a text. These features include not only grammar and syntax but also literary devices such as meter and tropes. The formalist approach reduces the

importance of a text's historical, biographical and cultural context.

So, how is formalism going to help me understand better Faust?

 

-Because it allows me to have a deepest comprehension of the text. If I analyze more in depth these novel, I will understand it better and also I will be able to understand future books. And also because it's a reading that requires a lot of attention to make it understandable.

 

 

What have I liked or disliked about Faust so far?

 

-To be honest, I really like the general idea of the book, but when I started reading the book, I didn't was as excited as I used to be. I mean, it is really tedious and its also confusing. I just hope to like it during this week. 

 

 

 

 

 

-Stay Weird.
