The End in the Beginning: February 9, 2018

Focus: How is the end in the beginning (and still lies far ahead)?

1. Warming up by rereading the Prologue
  • What do you see now that you didn't see the first time? What are you still wondering about?
  • Flip through the Epilogue: What shift has the narrator undergone between the Prologue and the Epilogue?
  • How is the end in the beginning, and how does it still lie far ahead?

2. Enjoying our final Socratic seminar: Invisible Man, Chapter 24-Epilogue

3. Wrapping up with questions, epiphanies, and kudoes

HW:
Start working on your Invisible Man Big Question Blog (due Tuesday). My tip: Get extremely specific by going into depth on ONE motif and bringing in ample textual evidence.
