MODERNISM: THE ASSIGNMENTS!!!

Hello again!

DUE TODAY, APRIL 16TH, EMANCIPATION DAY!!!
Hopefully you have already chosen a poet from the list below that strikes you in some meaningful way, as that was ASSIGNMENT 1.

DUE TUESDAY, APRIL 17TH, TAX DAY!!!
ASSIGNMENT 2: Consider which of the "leanings and tendencies" of Modernism your poet's work is most representative of. You can focus on as many or as few of these as you see fit. This is why we started with "The Wasteland"... so that you would have some exposure to all of them before now.

DUE WEDNESDAY, APRIL 18TH
ASSIGNMENT 3: Choose either one longer work or two shorter works that you feel are emblamatic of your poet's style and are ideal exemplars of your poet's use of those "leanings and tendencies" you've already chosen to explore.

DUE THURSDAY, APRIL 19TH
ASSIGNMENT 4: Decide how you intend to expose the rest of us to your findings and ideas. There are lots of options here, the details of which will be forthcoming shortly.

DUE FRIDAY, APRIL 20TH
ASSIGNMENT 5: Develop a thoughtful, sophisticated, ORIGINAL thesis from your findings that you intend to prove and support in ASSIGNMENT 7, DUE NEXT WEEK!!!

DUE MONDAY, APRIL 23RD
ASSIGNMENT 6: Be prepared to respond to the questions you've been given about your book (either SAR or GG).
