Schema: fixing PowerPoint and e-mailing to Mr. Little.


A Block covered canti 7,8,9 & 11. Good job by all, especially Raymond.

C Block covered canti 8,9, 11&12.

Start thinking about what essay question you will use.


There will be a quiz tomorrow. Remember: the two rivers of the Inferno, the Acheron and Styx; that Phlegyas is the riverman of Styx and Charon of Acheron; that Medusa (C.IX) was used to threaten Dante - turn him to stone; who we unexpectedly find in a fiery tomb in Canto 11, Pope Anastasius; that the rings of inferno holding the violent are the rings of the lion; the bloody river that holds the murderers and their guards, the Centaurs. You are also responsible for basic info like the names of the books of the Comedy, the number of books in each, three beasts, and literary terms used in the rubric.
