Coursework

We read and discussed:

• The last few chapters of the Book of Daniel
• "The French Revolution", book 1, by William Blake
• Benjamin's (pronounced Bee-ha-meen) "Theses on the Philosophy of History"
• "Fire and Ice", by Robert Frost
• "The Second Coming", by William Butler Yates
• "Waiting For the Barbarians", by a Greek poet
• "The Hollow Men", by T. S. Eliot

Then we read King Lear. This had a major project attached to it. We would create a film pitch for an adaptation of the play.
