2: The continuation of vocab started the class, which then was followed with the look at the 2 translations of the opening Petrarch poem and its differing tone, diction, and presentation by the amendment of certain words. Then, you received your 3 prompts back with reminders of how to score well on the evidence and sophistication portions. Last, we started our look at persona, the speaker's character, and how Petrarch and Donne poems can show a dramatic different in persona!
6: We finished up the 6 sonnet selections of Petrarch and the look at the 2 translations before starting the process of handing back the prompts. Homework will be reading pages 11-13 on Donne's bio so that you are ready for all those predictable puns next week!
