British Literature Announcements





There is an open-note test on the prologue from The Canterbury Tales this Friday.






Make sure to keep track of the different characters' personalities, appearances, and actions. Note whether each character is a commoner, a member of the court, or a clergyman. Remember that Chaucer, through his descriptions of people, made comments on society. Make sure you have the vocabulary words defined. Note the information on pages 90-94 that provide a historical background for the story. Pay careful attention to the characters that I listed on the board.


Make sure to identify your favorite character for the art project that we will complete next Monday!
