Classes Four and Five




The Tempest, Prof Tobin, and Resources/Erin Anderson and "What is Literature?"

On September 25th, we discussed The Tempest in different critical contexts.  We had a visit from Professor John Tobin and learned about the Shakespeare class he'll offer this spring: What did Shakespeare read?  We also heard from Danielle and Madelyn—and discussed with them the changing perceptions of Prospero’s magic.   

After the break, we looked at some of the online resources you found for CE3, which are accessible via this blog.

On October 2, we had a terrific visit from Professor Erin Anderson, who showed us some of her video and web projects and explored with us some of the philosophical and ethical dilemmas she explores via her work with sound.  Here is a link to her Olive Project: http://technorhetoric.net/15.2/topoi/anderson/index.html
