1. First Anglo-Saxon background quiz (pp. 23-27 plus hand-out summarizing lecture notes)
2. Actual printed copy of syllabus! We went over some essentials; read thoroughly and ASK if you have questions.
3. New hand-out on further aspects of the Anglo-Saxon culture: introduction by David Adams Leeming
- Read in its entirety for Tuesday, Sept. 25
- This material will be on the second quiz (a major one early next week that will cover complete background material, the literary and cultural terms up to that point, and all three Anglo-Saxon short poems)
Students read "The Wanderer" (108-111) and answered individual questions from a half-sheet hand-out. Most people finished these in class; if you did NOT, however, finish them for tomorrow, and they will be collected first thing.
FOR TOMORROW
Yes, finish the poem questions if necessary. Otherwise--everyone--be sure to have read the hand-out carefully. Be prepared with questions if you have them, and for some recall/connection/application questions from me! Feel free to underline, highlight, write notes/comments, etc. on the pages, but I will not be checking annotations on this assignment.
