While we may be at different parts of our epic journey, the free response essay final draft remains due by 2:35 p.m. for all classes.
2: After vocab experts concluded today, you worked in groups to analyze sections 4-13 of Beowulf. Alas, we did not make it through all of these sections, so we will wrap up the last four sections next time around. To further prepare for tomorrow's foray into epic literature, you will need to read Gilgamesh from your textbook.
4: After vocab review, groups led the discussion on Gilgamesh by looking at the man, the sidekick, and that poor monster's fate! For tomorrow, read The Iliad selection from your textbook and be ready for all those epic similes!
7: After reviewing vocab, groups shared their over-analysis of Beowulf for sections 4-13, or the end of Grendel and his mom. Hopefully, we also looked at how Anglo-Saxon ideologies permeated this text. Lastly, we looked at the horrifying situation that was living in 999. For next class, it's time for our next epic hero: read Gilgamesh in your textbook.
