Hilton Chicago
- Northwest Hall 5
At this roundtable, we will discuss the most controversial and popular essays we’ve gathered (the “Quibbles of the Week” at the top, which have collectively yielded thousands of comments and shares through Facebook and Twitter) and a Quibble-writing workshop. For this particular workshop we will channel the strategies of Dr. Rosenwasser for “close-reading” as seen in his new book, “Writing Analytically,” to show conference-goers a very cool method to think about Harry Potter critically, and then formulate intuitive Quibbles from those ideas.
