and even ensure a kind of immortality?

LITERARY CRITICISM

from The Naked Babe and the Cloak

of Manliness

from The Well Wrought Urn

Cleanth Brooks

from Macbeth

from Shakespeare’s Language

Frank Kermode

Tastes change over time, so how do we judge

literature—by the standards of the past or

those of the present?

PERFORMANCE TASK

SPEAKING AND LISTENING FOCUS

Present an Argument

The Small-Group readings are examples of sonnets and Shakespearean criticism.

After reading, your group will present an argument about whether or not literature

from earlier eras should be rewritten in present-day language.

Selections Circulate among groups as they

preview the selections. You might encourage

groups to discuss any knowledge they already

have about any of the selections or the situations

and settings shown in the photographs. Students

may wish to take a poll within their group

to determine which selections look the most

interesting.

Remind students that communicating and

collaborating in groups is an important skill that

they will use throughout their lives – in school, in

their careers, and in their community.

Performance Task

Present an Argument Give groups time to

read about and briefly discuss the presentation

of an argument they will create after reading.

Encourage students to do some preliminary

thinking about which language they want to

focus on in their argument. This may help focus

their subsequent reading and group discussion.
