September 30

JOURNAL TOPIC: [today's tunes: "Ghost Radio" by The Brian Setzer Orchestra; "The Payback" by James Brown]
A close study of revenge quickly reveals two schools of thought: 1)Revenge is righteous and/or fulfilling, and 2)Revenge keeps wounds from healing and may be appealing to consider but ultimately destroys every party to it. What do you think of the value of revenge, how do you see the effects of revenge played out in the world, and what do you think Hamlet should do now that he knows Claudius poisoned his father?

AGENDA:
1. Journal
2. Vocab test (plus questions on hosting good online conversations and Hamlet Act I)
3. Correct/discuss test

HW:
1. Review Hamlet Act I and come prepared to discuss on Monday 10/3
2. Pick a new literature analysis book from this list and begin reading
