second time around

As we discussed in class on thursday, the plot is moved along in the story by the characters, and that these characters are joined to nature and their individual history. But what if that the environment is itself a character and that it interacts with the persons in the plot? In this final essay I will show that the environment affects the people characters in the story and how this interaction affects the psyche and that between the two can move the plot of the story. For the Gothic, I will use:
Edgar Huntly or, Memoirs of a Sleep-Walker.
Dark Romanticism, slected works of Edgar Allen Poe is a natural selection for this section of the essay.


If you please Julie, I am having trouble finding sources for what we talked about, I searched ebsco and jstor any other suggestions?
