Read and comment on Christopher Durang's play. Also read Lanham's chapter on High, Middle, and Low style - comment on his distinction with reference to texts we have read.
for 10/17: read "Hills Like White Elephants" by Ernest Hemingway and post in the usual manner. In addition, pick a paragraph from the story and rewrite it in the "high" style of Winston Churchill, as quoted in Lanham. This is an exercise, again, and the results may necessarily be awkward.
