Select and analyze one significant detail from “The Birth Mark” by Nathaniel Hawthorne (pub. in 1843) or “The Yellow Wallpaper” by Charlotte Perkins Gilman (pub. in 1892). If the detail is an example of the uncanny or the Gothic, you should explain how it exemplifies those concepts. For example, if you say something is Gothic, explain exactly what makes it Gothic. If you need to review the introductory videos on the Gothic or the uncanny to remember key themes and motifs, please do so. Note that the detail you analyze does not have to be something uncanny or Gothic. You can analyze any details from the stories.
