The Roads

This week, finish The Road. Take informal notes on the book, perhaps some quotations, links, etc. Upon completing it, write on blog entry.

Respond to this blog post in your own blog before Wednesday.

By Tuesday for even days, or Monday for odd days, post a complete modern version of one Canterbury Tale. Imagine a modern re-telling of Chaucer's representation of society. Just like the Middle Ages had their nuns and pardonerers, we might have website designers or homeless people in a modern version. The only catch is that it must be written in heroic couplets.

Other project options:

Write an interview between Oprah and Chaucer, only that Chaucer speaks in heroic couplets.

or

Choose a character from The Road to narrate the novel in heroic couplets. For example, the Son's Tale might just be about what happened to them. Or the Cannibal's Tale is another viable option.

Do not forget that your new analytic essay drafts are due on Wednesday for even days, Thursday for odd.
