Hi Sam,

Thanks for taking a chance with this class! I can talk a little about psychoanalytic theory and literature if you like. One of my favorite pieces of Freud is his essay on the “uncanny” in which he uses Hoffman’s The Sandman to talk about the feeling of uneasiness. The Sandman is a really interesting motif that gets used in weird different ways all over the world.
