Snow week of February 11, 2010

We will read a couple of cantos in class. You will finish the remainder for homework. By next Monday/Tuesday, you should have read through Canto XI (11). Expect a reading quiz on cantos 1-15 next Wednesday/Thursday.

Also, start thinking about where your contemporary Inferno will take place and who will be your guide. Remember that your narrator is living. You will write in first-person voice. Your guide, however, must be someone who has died.

Locations can and do vary. Pick a place you know or would like to know better. It can even be a local place.
