Poetry reading

"My Last Duchess" by Robert Browning

Final graded essay assignment

Your final paper is a 500-word essay due Tuesday, December 7, 2010, on the following topic:

What life lessons does "The Jilting of Granny Weatherall" suggest to the reader? Use specific examples from the story to make your points. It may also be appropriate to use examples from your own life or those you know well to make your points.

You won't have an opportunity to rewrite this essay, so be sure to bring your best game.

Most critically, make sure you do your own work. You've made it this far in the semester; it would be a shame to blow it all on plagiarism this late in the game. The internet is full of temptation on this one. Resist.

Assignment for Tuesday, November 23, 2010

OK, scholars, here's your assignment for Tuesday. Please remember, this story is for you to read before coming to class. It won't do you much good (either for your quiz grade or for your understanding) if you try to read it for the first time on the screen while we discuss it Wednesday morning.

"The Jilting of Granny Weatherall"

Also, please have some idea of what the story is saying and what's really going on. "Jilting" has been around long enough that a simple Google search will give you more than enough critical writing on the story. Here's a good plan: read the story first, come up with your best interpretation, and then check your theory against some of what's been written online. Whatever you do, don't come to class with an "I have no idea" attitude.
