Irony and Some Odd Greek Vocab

Today we began the day with a discussion of irony in Robinson's "Richard Cory." We then had a lively, yet moderated discussion of theme and introduced the terms "stichomythia" and "antilabe."

HW: Be prepared with your favorite example of stichomythic dialogue (or antilabe) from Oedipus Tyrannus.
