APEnglish Literature and Compostion: Jan. 4-7

Welcome back everyone!

I hope you had a restful and fun holiday. Now it's time to hit the books and papers (and computers) again.
You were supposed to have read Joyce's Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man over the holiday. Since I really want to do more poetry anaysis this week, you'll have one more week to finish reading before we have our Socratic Seminar. Check my Moodle page for assignments on this novel. Also, expect to do some MC practice and at least one timed essay on this text.

We will review some of the MC passages from your midterms this week, so be prepared to discuss the passages in small groups.

Bring your Perrine's books to class. We will be reading and analyzing various poems over the next few days including the following:
