The date and text for these presentations will be assigned. Generally these presentations involve a careful articulation of the student s reading of the text.
Presenters often focus on imagery, motifs, tone, and take comparative approaches to the text.
Some students in the past have introduced secondary readings. Summations should not be thought of as book reports or plot summaries. Rather, these should include your immediate impressions of either the literary or critical text under discussion. Students may turn these in on either Monday or Wednesday. Summations should be typed and double-spaced but need not conform to strict paragraph form.
