Lesson Outline
We explored the development of the guilt motif in the recent reading noting how as each character develops values and remorse guilt ensues. We further addressed how Magwitch and Miss Havisham are surprisingly similar in that each "uses" Pip as a vehicle of revenge(although for different wrongs). Notes were taken on both of these areas. Last, we explored a plot inconsistency in Pip's refusal to accept Magwitch's money- honestly earned- while having no misgivings about accepting the same wealth when he thought Miss Havisham the source. Kaitlin correctly noted that Magwitch's moral character is far superior to Miss Havisham's yet Pip's perception of Miss Havisham's social class still warps his judgment at this point in the novel.
