Honors English Ten Period

1. Reminder, Annotated Bibliographies and typed reflections are due on Thursday. 2. On Thursday, you will be writing an in-class essay on the following topic: Analyze a significant speech act made by a character in The Tragedy of Julius Caesar for the speaker's use of persuasive language techniques, including fallacies, appeals to certain emotions and other devices. Tonight, you may want to simply identify your speech and read it several times. Then thin: what effect does the speaker's use of language have on his or her audience? 3. We will also read/hear Act IV 5. Finally, I have decided to allow your line recitals to be your final exam. This will give us time to fully read Act IV and V. Watch the speeches; complete our in-class essay. On your final exam date, you will give your lines (to be safe, I will ask approximately 6-10 students to go on Monday, June 3rd). On that date, we will have our potluck as well.
