Homework for Friday, Nov. 30

Read and annotate Act 1, scene 3 of Henry IV, Part 1. Your goal in this reading is just to understand what is happening. For that reason, you have no writing due this Friday. The plot developments are complicated, so we need to make sure we understand what is happening before unpacking the characters' rhetorical situations and their rhetoric. If you still have no idea what is happening when you finish reading scene 3, don't hesitate to consult this web site. Also, make sure you bring with you the assignment that was due on Wednesday that I did not collect. We will continue our discussion of Hal's soliloquy.
