I had learned about Freud many times in high school and in college, so I was eager to use a different lens when it came to literary analysis. <\/li><li>Lacan&#8217;s theory about language and how it fails to truly articulate the unconscious intrigued me. T.S. Eliot&#8217;s &#8220;The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock&#8221; seemed like the perfect poem to analyze through this theory.<\/li><li>My first draft started out a little rough. I focused too much on the different aspects of Lacan&#8217;s research and explaining those in the paper rather than analyzing Eliot&#8217;s poem. My professor made sure to let me know that I needed to pick one aspect of Lacan and look at the poem through that lens rather than try to encompass all of Lacan&#8217;s work into the essay.<\/li><li>The second draft got closer to what I wanted to point out. Once I took the pressure off of myself to try and fully explain Lacan, I was able to understand my analysis of the poem more. I also found more quotes that I could work with, too.<\/li><li>My third draft cleaned up quite a bit in the essay. I reworded some confusing paragraphs, and put a little more analysis of individual quotes. With that draft done, I submitted the paper for my presentation portfolio.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2>Links to Drafts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english305.graceknudsen.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Psychoanalysis-Paper-Peer-Review.pdf\">Peer Review<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english305.graceknudsen.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Psychoanalysis-Paper-first-draft.pdf\">Draft One<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english305.graceknudsen.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Psychoanalysis-1.pdf\">Professor&#8217;s Comments on Draft One<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english305.graceknudsen.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Psychoanalysis-Draft-2-WITHOUT-Track-Changes.pdf\">Draft Two<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/english305.graceknudsen.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Psychoanalysis-Draft-2-With-Track-Changes.pdf\">Tracked Changes<\/a>) <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english305.graceknudsen.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Psychoanalysis-2.pdf\">Professor&#8217;s Comments on Draft Two<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/english305.graceknudsen.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Psychoanalysis-Draft-Three-WITHOUT-CHANGES.pdf\">Draft Three<\/a>: (<a href=\"https:\/\/english305.graceknudsen.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Psychoanalysis-Draft-Three-WITH-Track-Changes.pdf\">Tracked Changes<\/a>)<br>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My Writing Process When considering topics for this paper, I was intrigued by Lacan&#8217;s theories of psychoanalysis.
