Antigone Journal 1

Great job discussing the stage directions and identifying the contrasting ideas in class today. 
Remember that you need to turn the journal entry in to turnitin.com before class tomorrow and bring a copy to class for discussion. 

As a reminder of the journal requirements:

You need to discuss the topic, provide quotations, and analyze the quotations.  The form you complete this in doesn't matter.  For those of you working on analysis, you might want to throw the quotations at the top of the page and directly analyze them without worrying about forming sentences and then write a paragraph discussing the ideas.  For those of you working on organization, you might want to attempt to write a strong paragraph with a clear topic sentence.  Also, the discussion of the topic might develop more questions than it provides answers, but it should show that you are thinking independently about the text. 

Tonight's reading:  through page 44

Journal:  Part 1 discuss a contrasting idea Anouilh provides in the text
Part II:  Examine one of the metaphors from the reading or a  motif you find interesting

Also, as I've mentioned, the first essay this quarter concerns tragedy.  You might want to take some notes about what you how this section of the reading supports or rejections aspects of tragedy.
