12th Academic English
On Tuesday, we'll discuss "Sir Gawain and The Green Knight," pp. 162-175.  We'll look at how society is changing, what values are important to society as seen through this literature, and how these changes compare to what we've learned from studying Beowulf.  On Wednesday we'll begin work with "Morte d'Arthur," pp. 176-184.  Again, we'll look at society through this literature.  On Thursday you'll take Vocabulary Quiz #3 and will begin work on list #4.  Don't forget that Newsweek summary #2 is also due on Thursday.
