Greetings Seniors!
This marks our first full week of our last semester! Boy time sure does fly!
As I told you last week, we are now studying Renaissance Literature, which includes such authors as Donne, Shakespeare, and Marlowe, among many others. This was a of rebirth of knowledge and technology. Changes in the church and the end of the Feudal system are reflected in the literature of the period. This is a period rich in a plethora of new literature, and while we cannot possibly read all of it, I hope we can get a good overview of the period.
To begin our study, we will read the play Dr. Faustus by Christopher Marlowe. Pay attention and participate in discussion because you WILL be expected to write an essay on this play. I will post topics and upload dates on my Moodle next week.
Also, we will have a vocabulary quiz on Thursday on lesson 12.
See you in class!
Mrs. SO
