Short Stories The sound clip is a recording of a Grendel’s Approach to Heorot by P. Baker at http://www.engl.virginia.edu/OE/Beowulf.Readings/Beowulf.Readings.html For an introduction, suggestions might include a brief summary of the poem’s plot as a hero vs monster epic; that might lead into a discussion of what an epic is.

Kate Chopin’s Story of an Hour and Desiree’s Baby Diction Irony Setting Point of View

The Story of an Hour (or The Dream of an Hour) Is Mrs. Mallard a dynamic character. Does she have an epiphany? When? What is the irony in the story? Explain. An early biography of Pope Gregory written in England ca. 700 narrates a story illustrating Gregory’s interest in converting the pagan Anglo-Saxons and other tribes living in England, which had been a British colony from 43-450 A.D. Tell the story of Pope Gregory seeing the beautiful blond boys (youths) sold as slaves in Rome. “The people we belong to are called Angles.” Angels of God. Our king is called Aelli. Alleluia, God’s praise must be heard there. The name of our tribe is Deire. They shall flee from the wrath of God (de ira dei) to the faith.

How does the historical milieu affect the story? When is the story written? What does freedom mean for Mrs. Mallard? Investigate the style of the writer – what stylistic choices does she make in this story to create the tone of Mrs. Mallard’s ecstasy?
