WEEK #8 ASSIGNMENT

Readings

Blake, Wordsworth, and Shelley (all are in the Course Reader). In addition, please read the Introduction and first chapter (“Economy“) of Walden, as well as look over the Preface, which can all be found on this website.

Lectures

Note that there will be no class on November 23, which is Thanksgiving.

Lectures will be shown from 11:00am -12:15pm on Tuesday & Thursday in Campbell Hall. Lectures start promptly at 11:00am and run for the entire period. Attendance will be taken via iClicker.

The Prezi for both lectures is below for your reference.

Here is the PDF of the lecture notes (i.e. the Prezi material) for Lecture #14.

Film

Please watch the documentary Happy according to these guidelines:

1) If you have not seen Happy, please watch it. It is available for viewing on GauchoSpace (GauchoCast). If you are not enrolled in the class, it currently can be rented for a relatively modest fee from Amazon.

2) If you have already seen Happy, watch it again. It is even better the second time. Seriously!

Film assignment: after watching Happy, please watch Ken’s video on YouTube introducing it and comment on his video.

Please note that your YouTube comments on Ken’s short lectures on the film needs to be completed by 6 AM on Monday, November 27.
