The Week of March 23rd

So this week we continue our tour of the Romantic poets, visiting with Byron, Coleridges, Shelley and Keats, as well as moving along on research papers. The due dates next week are:

Wednesday, March 25: Pride and Prejudice and accompanying work needs to be finished.

Friday, March 27: Annotated Bibliographies, in your research notebook, are due in class.

You also have to do the following assignment on Pride and Prejudice. You can do this as soon as you've finished the book.

Inside and Outside With Miss Austen

Please go back through the text and locate the following passages. Please look at WHERE these events take place:

Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth’s first meetings (chs. 3, 8, 9)
Mr. Darcy’s first proposal (chapter 34)
Darcy’s delivery of the letter about Wickham and Elizabeth’s comprehension of it(chs. 35 & 36)
Elizabeth and Darcy’s meeting at Pemberly(ch. 43)
Elizabeth’s reading of Mrs. Gardiner’s letter about Darcy’s involvement in Lydia’s marriage (ch. 52)
Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth reunited for the first time (ch. 53)
Elizabeth’s interview with Lady Catherine (ch.56)
Elizabeth and Darcy reach “an understanding”(ch. 58)

Please take notes on these and attach them to your open response.


Having considered this range of experiences and their location, please, in an open response to be turned in, speculate on WHY these events occur inside or outside. What might Austen be suggesting about these events by locating them indoors or outdoors?
