Romantic Readings

Junior English. Wed, Sep 9th, 2015 at 4:12 pm

We have spent the last few days on a new set of readings: sections of Paradise Lost, a number of Romantic poems, and excerpts from Burke’s Sublime and the Beautiful and Wollstonecraft’s “Vindication of the Rights of Man.”

All of this is leading up to our first novel, Mary (Wollstonecraft) Shelley’s Frankenstein. I can’t wait! You will receive these tomorrow, so make sure your annotations of the shorter works are solid, because all will be required to contribute to your midterm essay. More on that later.
