HOMEWORK
Read and Annotate "Civil Disobedience" by Henry David Thoreau
This is a seminar text, so I expect you to annotate accordingly.
Ideas for annotations
- observations about what is being said
or done
- summary of main points
- what you are reminded of (people,
feelings, places, moods)
- questions you have
- ideas that occur to you
- things that you agree or disagree with
- any connections you are making
- vocabulary you need to look up (and
the definitions after you look it up)
- identify themes being developed
- any literary devices being used
(metaphor, irony, imagery, et. al.)
- things you find beautiful or striking
or interesting or profound: stuff you
want to return to think about later
