Vindication

After vocab, we spent quality time in groups recapping the philosophy, gender politics, historical milieu, common analogies and motifs, and all-around argumentative styling of Wollstonecraft's dedicatory letter and introductory section. With that completed, you received the assignment or Vindication and your chapter that you will be responsible for close reading, writing analytical paragraphs, and presenting next week. I also gave you the rangefinders for the Estrella prose prompt, which you will evaluate in 1-6 and in thesis, evidence, and sophistication. We will be analyzing these and your own essays on Monday. Ergo, tomorrow after vocab will be a work day so that you can can prep either or both of these elements.
