Masque of the Red Death finished.
Marking the text key, symbolism and diction reviewed.
Students continue to mark the text through the end of the story. In depth discussion to come the next class. The following discussion points came up in class:
1)Why should Prince Prospero have stood out to you as a possible symbol?
2)Why did they lock themselves in permanently-without a chance for "ingress or egress"?
3)What is the significance of the rooms? Why do they go from east to west?
4)What are two things that stop when the clock chimes? Why do you think they stop? What might that reveal about the clock
5)Why are they wearing masks? Think about this in a figurative way.
