Class today: March 16/17th

1. Finish the Pardoner's Prologue and Tale, if you have not done so already.
2. Read the Apologia notes found under the CT links. Take notes.
3. Add the apologia genre to the discussion notes of the first three genres discussed on Tuesday (Estate satire, fabliaux, frame narrative). Make sure these notes are complete from Tuesday on the first three genres. As you add in apologia, examine the Pardoner's Prologue and Tale. 
4. For Friday, you need to read the seminal article by George Kittredge on the Pardoner and his tale. (Found under CT links). Take thorough notes. This will help you process the Tale and Prologue in a larger analytical argument.
5. Start work on the Pardoner's Prologue and Tale discussion questions (hand out in class). These are due March 29th at the beginning of class.

You will be receiving your Canterbury Tales presentation assignment on Friday, March 18th. Presentations will take place on April 13th, 14th, and 15th.

FYI- You will receive Hamlet on April 4th.
