Almost to Break . . .!

DO NOT FORGET to get the tracking paper submitted to turnitin.com tonight before midnight!  Also, some folks so far have forgotten the word count.  Make sure to have the word count on the text.

TODAY IN CLASS
Some "starter work" on Paradise Lost. Yesterday I said to read Part I for Friday, but frankly, I'd rather have you focus on doing a really good job with Coleridge's poem for tomorrow.  So--

HOMEWORK for Friday:  Samuel Taylor Coleridge--"The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" (7 sections; you have the hand-out only for the first two)

Preferred text for READING  "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner."  Note that there is a Printable Version option if you'd like to have a hard copy (recommended, but not absolutely required so long as you're willing to cycle back to the text as needed after break):

But I also urge you to spend a few minutes with the text from the University of Virginia collection, which features the original illustrations.
