Read Along with Berkeley
December 1, 2021
Join Mark Danner as he leads a seminar on Faulkner. During this session, the class examines a chapter entitled “The Bear” from Faulkner’s Go Down, Moses. Discussion questions include:
- What is Faulkner trying to tell us about the realm of nature and the realm of civilization in this work
- What effect do the revelations contained in the ledger have on the story
- Why does Ike make the decisions he does that determine the course of his adult life?
About the Program:
Read Along with Berkeley is a Program run by the Berkeley English Department to connect alumni to current English seminar classes. For each seminar, we provide selected readings and discussion questions, along with an invitation to join an ongoing online discussion and a monthly Open Office Hours with the professor.
