Due Friday, January 10th

1. Review the handout "Why we study literature". Think about the conversation we had in class. What is the real purpose? How does the purpose change depending on what is being asked of you? Commit to a few of the reasons. (meaning... know them if I ask you)

2. Review and familiarize yourself further with literary criticism. What is literary criticism? What is its purpose? How is the "why we study literature" a result of doing literary critique? Familiarize yourself with each school. Be able to have a brief explanation of each ready.

3. Read through "Invictus" again.. using a different color pen/pencil... pick another school of theory... and look for answers or ideas that come out through ONLY that school of theory. When you are done.. you should have an annotated text in TWO different colors. One being the assignment from the previous class... your first school of theory... this will be the second.
