Sylvia Plath was a visual artist and a writer. A selection of her drawings were sold and made available online. In your third discussion posting, you will pair one of Plaths drawings with one quotation from chapters 5-8, asserting an argument regarding what the similarities or differences teach us about the novel. As you analyze the drawing and the passage from the novel together, take into account the visual elements that make the drawing a drawing and the written elements that makes the novel a novel. Include a screenshot of your image with your posting. You can capture it using Jing.

Key Issues:

Whether or not the media item is being deliberately misleading, or servicing a particular narrative or agenda
