A dialectical journal is like a conversation between you and the text. It’s a way to record the questions you want to find answers for in the text and your thoughts and observations about the text. Reread act 1, scene 2 of A Streetcar Named Desire, and analyze this scene in depth. Using the questions as a guide, record your analysis and textual evidence in the table. An example has been provided in the first row.
