Lit 12

Excellent work today into the nature of identity or what Shakespeare calls "the darkness of revelation". (Add spooky laugh here).

Homework: Complete the fact / react chart based on the column on page 22.

Read Edmund's soliloquy in Act 1 Sc 2. Lines 1-22. Write a literary paragraph (250 to 350 words) which explains what is revealed about Edmund in this passage. Pay close attention to imagery, language, repetition, rhetorical questions, tone, line break and symbols. Create a thesis statement which clearly reveals what you think of Edmund based on your analysis of the passage.
Marks awarded for literary analysis, literary must-haves, double space, title, date, name, use of detail, quotation incorporation and citing correctly.
