YOU MUST HAVE YOUR TEXTBOOK (WITH YOUR TEXTBOOK NUMBER) WITH YOU IN CLASS ON TUESDAY OR THURSDAY OR IT WILL BE COUNTED AGAINST YOU FOR CLASS PARTICIPATION.
Thursday
Possible quiz/ discussion of what we have read in "Pygmalion" so far--including the sequel--and in the article assigned. Finish film, "Pygmalion."
We should plan on having a unit test next Tuesday.
Friday:
Review for unit test. Have questions. Unit test will include the following material: "Pygmalion" (and sequel), Edmund Burke and "from Reflections on the Revolution in France" (47-56); Mary Wollstonecraft (56-57) and "from A Vindication of the Rights of Men" (57-64); Thomas Paine (64-65) and his "from The Rights of Man" (65-70); William Blake (74-76), and his "All Religions Are One," "Songs of Innocence and Experience" (76-78); "The Lamb" (79); "The Little Black Boy" (80-81); "The Chimney Sweeper" (81); "Holy Thursday" (82); "Infant Joy" (83); and "from Songs from Experience": "The Tyger" (88-89) and "A Poison Tree" (92-93). William Wordsworth (background pp.194-196) and "Tintern Abbey" [background] (p. 202) and "Lines Written a Few Miles Above Tintern Abbey" (202-206). "Speaking Across the Divide" is also fair game.
