Tuesday, 2/3/15: Austen's View...

* Open
  • Grammar
    • Quotations: Please continue answering the following questions here. 
* Austen: How does narrative perspective assist the satirical end of Pride and Prejudice?
* This is rather complex, but some would say Chaucer employed free indirect style when, in "The General Prologue," our narrator concurs with what the Monk must have said to him:
And I seyde [said] his opinion was good:
What! Sholde he studie, and make himselven wood [mad],
Upon a book in cloistre [a cloister] alwey to poure [study]?
Or swinken [work] with his handes, and laboure,
As Austin [Augustine] bit [bid]? How shal the world be served?
Lat Austin [Augustine] have his swink [work] to him reserved!
  • Why?
    • It's as though another voice (the Monk's) suddenly influences the voice of the narrator, though there are no direct quotations.  




* Work on your CWP (Q3 or Q4), please. 

HW: Proposal or Satire/Championing
