STANDARDS Literary Response and Analysis 3.12: Analyze the way in which a work of literature is related to the themes and issues of its historical period. (Historical approach)

We will be reading a portion of the oldest Veda, called the Rig Veda. Turn to page 114.  What is a “Veda”?  Volunteer to read:  “Build Background: Book of Hymns”?  “Build Background: Aryan Life”?  “Connect to Your Life”?  “Focus your Reading”?

Get out your World Literature Key terms… PARADOX= A paradox is a true statement or group of statements that leads to a contradiction. They usually lead to a bit of confusion.  Example: “He who is blind can see the clearest.”  Example: “If you run the fastest, you will arrive last.”  Example: “Once you finally find truth, you will know that there is no truth.”  Example: “I always tell lies.”  Example:  The statement below is false.  The statement above is true.

As we read “Creation Hymns” and “Burial Hymn,” annotate (for questions/answer and analysis– not summary). Keep an eye out for the following:  What paradoxes exist and what is the point?  Who/what is “That One”?  What existed before earth?  What did Ancient Aryans believe about death? (how desirable or frightening is it? What happens to the dead man?)  What the mourners are told of death?  What is happening during this funeral speech? (Similarities or differences from funeral rites today?)
