Baby Grendel Meets the World

2 &7: We added to our Anglo-Saxon ideologies list for The Iliad and the Wife's Lament and then spent a nice time analyzing the first 4 chapters of Grendel. At the end of class, we talked about New Historicism Criticism and how that will tie in with our Anglo-Saxon studies. More to come regarding the lens and future essay! For next class, read Grendel 5-7.

4: A surprise to start today's class, a box prompt to complete to practice our analysis and how to convey it is a pseudo-essay form. Afterwards, we discussed New Historicism and the overview of the essay you will be writing in this lens for the Anglo-Saxons. For next class, read Grendel 8-12, the end.
