Literary Devices

Daily Update
Today we went over several common literary devices and started group work to identify those devices in stories and poems we've read so far this semester. We'll continue this work on Friday (after the quiz), and we'll discuss MLA if we have time (otherwise we'll cover MLA on Monday; it shouldn't take too much time).

Check the "Literary Analysis Terms" link in the week 5 folder on Angel for an overview of the devices we discussed in class plus additional devices that may interest you as you prepare for your essay.

Homework Reminder
If you haven't read "Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?" or "A Rose for Emily," you need to get caught up QUICKLY, since I am going to quiz you on those stories first thing on Friday morning.

Also, you have a response paper due. Get the assignment from the week 5 folder of Angel.
