Biggest difference between Alternate World Fantasy and The Fantastic: in the Alternate World the characters travel through a portal to another world, and the Fantastic has fantastic things happening in our world.

Something to remember from class: Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is NOT fantasy it is a dream story.

If a person knows the arch type of the hero’s journey would it be foreshadowing when Harry meets Quirrell at The Leaky Cauldron. Quirrell turns out to be his enemy and the first time Harry meets him is right after he “crosses the threshold”.

I can see how some people would say Harry Potter is both the fantastic and the alternate world fantasies. But I agree it is more of the fantastic type.

What I learned in class today: Harry Potter is basically Jesus.

I bet all the publishers that rejected J.K Rowling were pretty bummed they did.

I really enjoyed the different stages of Bilbo’s development into an artist. He started from the bottom with “what’s in my pocket” now he’s here writing the Hobbit.

It’s nice to know the different types of fantasy, now the differences ive noticed in the different fantasy shows I have seen or books I have read are separated. They no longer are all clumped together in my mind, they each are their own type/style.

I have always enjoyed reading non-linear books. I like having to figure out the time the story is in at that specific moment. I also think it keeps me more interested while reading.

It’s interesting that gender roles are still so prevalent because of the different educations young boys and girls are trained in while they are growing up.

Esperanza works hard to give herself the ability to have agency and save her mom by bringing her grandma home, but Miguel strips it from her because he decides he is the only one who can “get things done”.

At first I was appalled at Esperanza’s attitude and thoughts of those who were poor, but then I realized she had never been immersed in that life before. She had to grow as a person now that she was no longer sheltered.

I feel a sense of pity for Miss. Crocker, she obviously had to face some serious ISAs and/or RSAs in her life for her to completely accept the position in society that is forced upon her.

Cassie was clever with her form of revenge, when I was nine my best revenge line was “I know you are but what am I”.

It’s interesting to see how much ISA’s are involved in our day to day lives even when we are unaware of it.

I thought the other text connections the group made today worked well. The connections were obvious to me when they discussed them.

I thought it was interesting to see how Alice behaved/ treated others the same way adults treated her. It seems ironic.

By mocking the adult world, Carroll uses carnivalesque ideas and gives Alice all the power in his books.
