End Quarter Information for English 512: Shakespeare and Renaissance Drama

As indicated on the course syllabus, comparison papers are due in class on Monday December 1. Please make seven copies, one for each member of the class and one for the instructor. If you’ve already submitted a draft and received feedback, attach that to the instructor copy. In class that day you will be presenting your paper to the rest of the group. Be prepared to read it fluently and with expression, as if you were delivering it at a conference. These presentations will serve as the first review of course material for the final exam and will allow for feedback from fellow students which should contribute to your revision process. All of us will be providing written feedback on these papers and will return them to their authors at the class on Wednesday December 3. This class will be devoted to a review of all the quarter’s readings and presentations and a discussion of some unifying themes. The final draft of the paper is due at the instructor’s office—47-25E—no later than 6 pm on Monday December 8.

The Final exam will take place in our classroom—22-314—starting at 4:10 p.m. on December 10 2003. It will simulate one of the questions on the M.A. Exam. This means it will last 75 minutes and will ask a broad question that should be answered in general terms with specific examples from at least four of the readings.
