Life in late capitalism can be vexing, alienating, fragmenting, and otherwise frustrating. There are many wonderful things in my life, but I'm more likely to talk about what's bad rather than what's good. I'm going to try to post one good thing here each day, and if you would join in by adding a good thing from your day in the comments, I'd love it--I'd absolutely love it. --RR
4/26: putting together a lesson plan
I like planning lessons, but planning the last day of a course can be tough. How to end? Today was the last class session of my Myth course, and I like what I came up with for our final meeting: part of the time we assembled a "big view" of the Classical mythological cosmos; part of the time we talked about some English words whose origins stem from Classical myth; part of the time we looked at post-antique art which drew inspiration from stories we have studied. I enjoyed hearing their "big view" thoughts, and it was fun to find paintings for us all to look at.
