We opened the block with a review of the previous chapter - we talked through a number of questions, and looked at the image of the gates of Auschwitz. We talked about the power of the image, and the parallel, yet quite different, image of the gates at the end of "The Miracle of Minerva." We also discussed the significance of the possible allusion in the name Minerva.
We read "Loss," and "The Circle." - (BLOCK 1 had repeated fire alarms, and did no reading)
Anyone who has missed classes is responsible for catching up on materials. There are a few students who seem to be prioritizing work for other classes - these folks will find the approaching final writing much more challenging than they would have if they'd been on top of reading/notes.
Wishing everyone a healthy, restful weekend!
