I moved the information in this post to the one above it. But I don't want to delete it because there are some good comment replies. So let's continue to use this post for "personal" discussion, general comments about the class, technical questions about the Blogger web software, etc.

Good evening! Prof. Winter:
ReplyDeleteI am one of the fourth-year students of FLL Department, NTHU.
We are looking forward to the American Literature Class! :)
Hope that you will like the campus & Hsinchu!
瑞欣, I'm glad the comment feature works. Out of curiosity, how did you sign on to the blog? Were you a previous user of Blogger, or did you make a new ID?
ReplyDeleteMy translator tells me that your name means something close to "lucky happy." Is this correct? In the U.S. we have an idiom, "happy go lucky," which means a person who moves through life without worries.
Well... when I want to post the comment, there is a "select profile" selection below the comment frame. And I choose the "google account," then the page suddenly turns to a google log in page and it asks me to log in. After I log in, my name is on the page. XD
ReplyDeleteOh, yes, the two Chinese characters' meanings of my Chinese name are just like that. Thank you for your comment. :)
Emperor Winter,your majesty,
ReplyDeleteI feel excited when reading through the syllabus you provided; for me, some of the texts selected are really interesting! ("Rip Van Winkle", for instance) But still I am (a little) disappointed to discover that there are some other texts suffering from their absence in your syllabus. For example, my favorite Whitman. (I think it's because in this semester we are asked to interpret texts mostly from the imperial/empire perspective.)
But Please tell me you'll manage to let me ask questions about those absent works by mail or in office time. I'll appreciate for that very much!
Alyssa... some of your favorites may be part of the second part of the class in the spring. Whitman is definitely one of those.
