Skype meeting at 8pm
Mary Shelley
Respond to "On First Looking into Chapman's Homer" in kind by writing a song or poem. Be faithful to Keats' poem but unique in the approach (I need to see the connection between his poem and yours - feel free to explain it to me if you don't think I'm going to be able to see it easily). The song may be recited, but both the song or poem must be in audio format with a musical background (i.e. "Amazed"). Video format is not required, but I would like to see the lyrics. Please post your song or poem to your blog with the subject line "Keats' Song"
An Introduction to "Ozymandias"
Frankenstein SparkNotes (read "Context," "Plot Overview," "Character List," "Analysis of Major Characters," "Themes, Motifs & Symbols," "Summary & Analysis," and "Important Quotations Explained")
