Homework for Monday, Dec. 10

Read and annotate from Act 3, Scene 3 to Act 4, scene 2 in Shakespeare's Henry IV, Part 1. Pay particular attention to the rebels' situation and their hopes for dethroning King Henry IV. How do they see themselves, and how do they see Henry IV, Hal, and their supporters? You do not have anything to write with this reading, so start or continue working on the speech explication that is due on December 18. If you've misplaced the handout, it is posted to the right.

If you did not watch Act 3, scene 2 (where Hal talks to his father), you can watch it in this video starting at the 53:48 mark.
