PLEASE TYPE if at all possible and definitely DOUBLE-SPACE. Remember to incorporate the specific suggestions for improvement that I made to each of you on the last writing assignment.

In class: discuss the various structural divisions offered for Poem 50 by all members of the class. Using your written exercises and structure work, as a class "brainstorm" the SWIMTAG of Poem 50.

tu 4/20 (F) In class: continue to discuss the various structural divisions offered for Poem 50 by all members of the class. Using your written exercises and structure work, as a class "brainstorm" the SWIMTAG of Poem 50. You are after raw data that might relate to the key words in the question.. Emphatically not wanted is any fancy "fine writing" stuff. Again, I ask that nobody mock what we are doing, or mock another person's contributions.
Assign: using your new marginal annotations--it's OK, even expected, that you "borrow" one another's insights--take your writing exercise through a second draft, making all the additions (and deletions) you want, but strictly observing the same length requirement as before. Remember to be informative and dull! (I won't even read past the 350-word mark; use restraint.)
CAUTION: do not collaborate in any way on the actual write-up. That would be academic dishonesty (collusion). Detected, it results in a zero for all involved.

Assign: in the Cambridge Latin anthology 52, section AMOR, write out a "chunking" translation of PYRRHA, lines1-8 (Horace, Odes I.5 for Perseus users). The assignment is short because the word order is "interesting"--there are several difficult noun-adjective splits to deal with. The poem describes one of those Roman-boy-with-Greek-girl situations. It may be only 16 lines long, but it has a lot to say.
