AP English Literature Periods 1 & 6

I will be absent on Thursday and Friday of this week. On Thursday, you will complete the reading of "What is Poetry?" in your Perrine Literature Texts. You will then use the same sonnet that you responded to in class to answer several questions on page 655 in your Perrine Text. You may work with a partner, but you must turn in your own assignment. If you do not finish, complete for homework. On Friday, and for weekend homework, you will be reading The Portrait of Dorian Gray. By Monday, you must have read all Chapters including Chapter 15. Answer the study questions--the little study packets. BUT ALSO 4 things that you noticed. PLEASE NO MORE THAN 1 QUOTE for each "4 things". You should notice imagery; or allusions; or connections made in previous chapters; or new developments; or literary technique like irony; paradox; metaphor. Do this "4 things I noticed" for each chapter, chapters 9-15. You will have a total of 28 things. Be ready to discuss on Monday, as well for writing assignments--i.e. Character/Theme Analysis as well as to generate multiple choice questions based on our reading. We will begin King Lear on October 27th.
