For Friday, I cancelled the reading in the syllabus since (a) I don't want to overload you with short poems too early in the semester, and (b) I want to give you the paper assignment sooner so I can discuss what I expect from these assignments, and how to write for a Humanities class in general. So it will be a relaxed class which will hopefully be useful to you; I will also give you reading questions for Chaucer's "The Wife of Bath's Prologue and Tale" for Wednesday (no class on Monday--Labor Day).
See you tomorrow!
