April 2007


For our last assignment before the final exam, you should choose a passage from either Milton or Swift and perform a close reading.  Your passage should be one that we have not discussed in detail in class.  I will be gauging the progress that you have made since our close-reading assignment at the beginning of the semester.  The paper should be about four pages, double-spaced, and it is due on the last day of class.  This assignment will take the place of test three on the syllabus.

Here is our open thread for T. H. White.  Comments?  Suggestions for discussion?

Reminder: Our readings for the last two weeks will be the selections by Jonathan Swift listed in the syllabus. Feel free to comment on any of these readings.
