Title of the paper: “The Ballad of Sand and Harry Soot”

Author or topic: Strickland, Stephanie.

Abstract: In this paper you can see a complete commentary of the poetic hypertext of Stephanie Strickland (1942- ): “The ballad of Sand and Harry Soot”. First of all, I have begun with an Introduction to explain what kind of text we are going to deal with. Secondly, taking on account that this text is poetic, I have explained the structure of it, trying to show in how many parts is divided the text, which are the most important parts of it etc. Then, I have talk a little about the characters of the work to provide a better understanding of it. Finally, I have made an analysis of the text emphasizing the aspect of the space, and I have given my own opinion about the ballad. I have also included a bibliography.

Auto- evaluation: I have had rather difficulties to carry out with this paper because, sincerely, I choose the option without firstly having a look at it. To my surprise I discovered that the text was poetry instead of narrative. Anyway I finally found that the text was difficult to interpret but this fact made me want to know more about it. I think that this paper has been more exciting to execute and I hope this will be reflected in the results.
