Soph Lit:

Today in class we had a quiz on Ch 1-4 in LOTF. After, we discussed Religious imagery, and symbols in the novel. Please continue to look at the following as you read- Simon, and how he could be compared to a symbol of Jesus; The symbolic use of nature in the novel, paying specific attention to the use of light; The title of the chapters.

We ended class watching 20 minutes of The Simpson's in an episode which parodies the novel quite well.

HW- Research your survival guides. Continue thinking about the question: Are people inherently evil?

My class let's you understand the literary world around you, as well as the jokes in a Simpson's episode.
