Today we began with this warm-up: Paying special attention to his use of apostrophe, examine Oedipus' long speech near the end of the play where he explores the crimes against him. What are the effects of the apostrophe on the meaning of Oedipus' speech and perhaps on the meaning of the work as a whole?
After spending some time discussing the study guide and filling in gaps, we did the short writing assignment below, which was collected.
Choose either your stichomythia/antilabe example or the example of apostrophe in today's warm-up and write a formal CRA paragraph. Your paragraph should address the theme and/or tone of the passage, should begin with a clear topic sentence and include direct references to the passage and quotations where appropriate.
