TODAY IN CLASS
We really looked at the language and vocab of the "devils" passage (enroute to the Chief Accountant's office, between the chain gang and the grove of death). Periods 3and 6 looked at some pictures of the Congo as part of discussion. . . 1st, remind me to start with that tomorrow. Staves, pilgrims, rivets, fires, the brickmaker, LIES, Kurtz's painting . . . .the key thing is to know the essential incidents in Part I, to know how Marlow's interest in Kurtz is gradually being piqued, and to understand the behind-the-scenes shenanigans (serious deception and sabotage, really) that are going on at the Central Station. So progress varied, but essentially, barring final Part I questions, class discussion moves on.
FOR TOMORROW
Complete the questions distributed today over Part II; you should provide complete responses with textual support. They need not be particularly LONG--just precise and careful.
