TIS THE SEASON XOXOX

We went over a modest proposal, turns out it ain't that modest. Then we dabbled in the juicy questions. Now before you bust out the gingersnap cookies and eggnog you must read canto III and do questions 1,2 and troi.

Get jiggy, get down

Hey, so, last class we looked over our Literary History sheets for the Restoration Period, talked about Pepys' Diary, and the Age of Pope. Our assignment for tonight is to read Jonathan Swift's Bio and "A Voyage to Lilliput". No questions.

Teacher says:

I am seeing all of you tomorrow after school.
Bring your textbook- it is open book and all multiple choice.
Note: there will be some sight passages, i.e. work that we have not studied but as we have studied the time period and the authors you should feel confident enough to tackle them.

Essays due on Thursday!

12 Thursday: Ibanez
