Your final project for the semester will be a compendium of weekly close reading exercises that you’ll work on over the course of the semester. Your Commonplace Book will include an entry from the reading for each week on the syllabus. An entry includes a passage from the text (say, 10-20 lines of poetry, or up to a paragraph of prose) and a short analysis of the features that make the passage meaningful, surprising, impressive, or strange. Your goal is to explain what makes the passage striking, and why it demands our attention. At the end of the semester, you will write a reflection on your Commonplace Book as a whole, describing its contents and thinking about what you’ve learned in the process of compiling it. Basically I need a quote analyzed 1.From the Aenid Book 1-2 2 Aenid Book 12 3.Genesis 4.genesis again 5.Paul Letter to the romans 6.Quran 7.King Lear Act 1. 8.King Lear act 2-5 King Lear -https://shakespeare.folger.edu/downloads/pdf/king-lear_PDF_FolgerShakespeare.pdf The Aenid- https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/228/pg228-images.html Genesis-https://www.vatican.va/archive/bible/genesis/documents/bible_genesis_en.html Then after you do quotes write a reflection on it Write a reflection of 600-750 words that reflects on the process of compiling your Commonplace Book. Questions you might think with: What have you chosen to include? Did what you look for change over the course of the semester? What if anything do the passages you included share? What value do quotations have when removed from their original context? What have you learned from the passages you’ve chosen? And what have you learned from the process of compiling your book?
