Assignment Instructions

*Discussion 1* Post (150+ words) To create a new post, click the "reply" button beneath these instructions, type, and submit your response. First, answer the required question: 1. What is the "horror" in this work? What makes it monstrous, fearful, or repulsive? Next, choose one of the two questions below to answer: 2. The narrator of this work is clearly haunted by what he has seen on the island, retreating into drug abuse to help him cope and contemplating suicide. But why has he been so deeply affected by this? And what does he fear for the fate of humanity itself (driving that sense of hopelessness)? 3. One of the key features of cosmic horror is that the source of horror itself is inexplicable, unknowable despite appearing to us, and through that, ultimately terrifying. This may explain why we get so little detail of Dagon itself when it emerges from the sea, but how do we also see this quality of the “unknown” in the island itself?

What is the "horror" in this work? What makes it monstrous, fearful, or repulsive? Next, choose one of the two questions below to answer: 2. Owaki’s dream seems to shed light on the holes’ initial function -- punishment for criminals. However, these holes were made hundreds, if not thousands of years ago -- why would they call out for people of the present day? What function do they serve now? 3. How did this visual nature of the work, being a graphic novel, add to the reading experience? Be sure to reference specific imagery here and how it helps to enhance the horror. https://solacc.instructure.com/courses/233238/files/59778674/download?verifier=w3VV6l339tEdrox8F35KDXtUtdNxTBJQjLuTncP7&wrap=1 https://solacc.instructure.com/courses/233238/files/59778667/download?verifier=GWMoLNY3N2y5GCEapKoniEuLM5kUILCl3PMcOekJ&wrap=1
