Emerson Blog, Due 13 Nov.

Now that you've created one or more Emerson-text-based inspirational posters, I'd like you to write a 250-350 word reflective blog on one of them. Please write about how the poster does capture a spirit of Emerson. Explain your understanding of this spirit of Emerson and how the image and the image-plus-text-dynamic embody it. ALSO, I want you to explain how the poster misses some of the complexity that is in the context out of which you pulled your quote. Emerson's one-liners are embedded and enmeshed in the paragraph, in the multi-paragraph chunk, and the text as a whole. You don't need to address all 3 of these contextual strata, but I do want you to talk about at least one to show how the posterification of Emerson does lose something.
