Comedy: 2nd Internal Assessment on Friday (1 Oct 10) - on either Volpone or Twelfth Night.

NaM: 2nd IA on 8 Oct 10 - choice between Heart of Darkness and Madame Bovary

Note: Shobhadi does not think the time allotted for the class test is too short to complete 2 answers, so that remains unchanged. Also, she would like us to decide which poet to study next - Ted Hughes or Langston Hughes. Ted Hughes has been taught in this course for the last few years but she has no problem teaching LH either.

Shall make both announcements in class tomorrow as well.

Note, again: Macbeth presentations have to be made in groups of 5, cannot exceed 15 minutes and must be ready by Kali Pujo.

Thank you. Bye bye.

Test!

Because I'm not entirely impervious to pity (unlike Lady Macbeth, who as it turns out might have been suffering from too "flaccid a clytoris" - if you missed today's Shakespeare class, shame on you) - For tomorrow's test:

1. Selected Essays by TSE here.

2. Cambridge Companion to Eliot here.
