Almost to Thanksgiving . . .

TODAY IN CLASS
I stamped completed homework papers--annotations of the Nun, lines 122-145--with an eye toward discrepancies between apparent praise and between the lines criticism or "faint praise" (not special at all!).
But there were elements of redemption:  everyone with homework done was expected to add to their notes as we discussed; people who had neglected to do it were able to take notes for partial credit; people who had been absent were told to take notes as we went along and hand it in for up to full credit (depending on thoroughness).    We DID manage to complete all of the Nun (pp. 148-150) .

FOR TOMORROW
No homework, but we will continue together tomorrow with the Monk--and who knows, maybe even the Friar!!
