Interviewer Self-Assessment 1. We build on our strengths. What did you do right in this session? What did the client notice as helpful?

Flannery O’Connor wrote many short stories and was quite good at it. There have been many journals and essays written about her work. One interesting part of her work is the use of clichés. Carole K. Harris wrote a journal about the clichés O’Connor used in “Revelation” and “The Displaced Person.” The class is not reading “Revelation,” however, the last story of O’Connor’s that we are reading is “The Displaced Person.” Harris’ main goal is to look at O’Connor’s use of the cliché.

Sontag references “…scratches… in the surface of an Old Master painting…”(Sontag, 1), something she says we “…reflexively screen out or see past” (Sontag, 1). It seems obvious that Sontag finds these imperfections distasteful and unworthy of attention. However, this idea of ignoring an interruption of the expected landscape for the sake of enjoying the…

and progressive ideas are born through conflict and dialogue. In these environments, a diverse sample of opinions is respected and encouraged. When a citizen is denied the ability to express and enact change within society, civil disobedience can interrupt the status quo and force people to listen. Civil disobedience is an example of a form of debate the citizens of a state or nation engage in in order to be heard, in order to open up a dialogue that has been denied.…
