Honors, Review of Binary Opposition through Chiaroscuro

Today, you presented your posters on binary opposition. Then we discussed "chiaroscuro" and looked at this painting. You wrote about it after our discussion.

Then I read the beginning of A Tale of Two Cities. This is a classic example of gorgeous binary opposition in literature.

Your homework is to read "Allegory of the Cave." Answer the questions you can. You may want to refer to pictures of the cave that other students have drawn who have studied this. Next time when you come to class, we will discuss this in full. Come prepared. This is a hard text!
