october 31

JOURNAL TOPIC: [today's tunes:  "What's He Building in There?" by Tom Waits; "Halloween (Michael Myers) Theme" by John Carpenter; "This is Halloween" by Marilyn Manson]

Since it's Halloween, two options (one for each face):
1. What role does fear (of death, of loss, of discovery) play in Hamlet?  What role does it play in your own life and decision-making process?
2. What masks do people wear in everyday life, i.e., how/why/when do we intentionally adopt personae that serve purposes other than reflecting who we are with integrity?

AGENDA:
1. Journal
2. Discussion: limits on what we (digitally) perceive and express
3. Generational translation: Hamlet 2.0?
4. [Vocabulary]
5. Acts IV & V

HW:
1. Finish reading the play and prepare to discuss who dies, how, why, and so what...
