Friday/Monday

Read "Politics and the English Language." Find one other Orwell essay and write a one-page critique of it by applying the criteria Orwell presents in "Politics and the English Language." First, perhaps you should jot down the criteria in a list of three-five things: then apply those criteria in an orderly fashion. Does Orwell meet his own standards?

A schedule is on the door for oral commentaries on February 19, 20, and 21. A-day students, please use shaded slots. B-day students, use unshaded slots (to insure that neither class has a great advantage at seizing all the preferred times).
