We reviewed Max's essay on Antony's tragic downfall in the play. I provided suggestions on the thematic value of explaining the significance of Shakespeare's metaphors. I also demonstrated how to add support to certain arguments or claims. We specifically addressed the contrast between Antony's marital life in Rome given the prestige incident to Antony's being married to Caesar's sister, and Antony's passionate affair with Cleopatra marked by manipulation and betrayal. Last, I began to introduce the Southern Gothic genre which we will discuss the rest of the week by analyzing passages from" To Kill a Mockingbird."
