Assignment for Tuesday, Nov. 25

In preparation for reading William Shakespeare's comedy, Much Ado about Nothing, read the handout on Shakespeare's rhetoric and then the two sonnets linked below, paying particular attention to their rhetorical features.


During class, we will read most of Act 1 of Much Ado about Nothing, so bring your book with you. If you missed Friday's and Tuesday's classes, you can read Act 1 of  Much Ado about Nothing in this reliable online edition of the play.
