HW12G due 4/28: Transcendentalism

1. In addition to your Transcendental experience this weekend, read letters 6 and 7 from Letters to a Young Poet.

HW12C due 4/27: Steppenwolf

1. Steppenwolf–Read and annotate up to p. 86. So, that makes 12 pages of reading–a manageable amount! I expect you to have good control of what is happening in the novel up to this point. Also, Jung should begin to weave its way into your interpretation of the novel.

Due Tuesday 4/28: p. 112 (Stop as the paragraph ends at the very top of 112)
Due Thursday 4/30: p. 136 (Stop at: “With a curse, I came back to the razor.”)
Due Friday 5/1: p. 147 (Stop as the section comes to a close at the top of the page.)

2. Class Forum
