Finish your descriptive composition today or on the weekend, if
necessary. Send to Seton for grading at the end of the quarter.
WEEK THIRTY-ONE
Day 1
1. Book Analysis – My Antonia by Willa Cather; House of Seven Gables
by Nathaniel Hawthorne; Joan of Arc by Mark Twain; or The Robe
by Lloyd Douglas. Look on the Seton web site for the Chapter Notes on
each of these books. Review the Guidelines for the Book Analysis in the
Handbook, Section C, Fourth Quarter.
2. Literature – From this week until the end of the quarter, we will read and
study A Tale of Two Cities, a classic by Charles Dickens. This book provides
a graphic illustration of the times during the French Revolution. The larger
events are true, but minor events may not be. There was not a real Madame
Defarge, but there were evil women who acted in a similar way. There

reading assignment one day, followed by a day of quiz and discussion

concluding discussion and a test.
The answers to the quizzes should be written in your notebook or on your
computer. The answers to the discussion questions need not be written
out, but they are likely to appear on the test, so you may want to write
the answers. You should jot down some ideas, however, and discuss them
with your parent-teacher; then read and think about the answers in the
key. These Discussion Questions are the questions which are likely to be

The purpose of studying this novel is not simply to learn about a great
classic, but also to encourage you to think about and analyze whatever
\RXUHDG<RXZLOOHQMR\DJUHDWERRNPRUHLI\RXUHÁHFWRQZKDW\RX
are reading. It is a long book, with a great number of details. It is a
book read by thousands over the years, and gives a picture of a period in
history that we should not forget.
The Online Lecture for Week Thirty-One presents “The French
Revolution: A Contrived Uprising Against Monarchy and Catholicism.”
While this lecture does not deal with the book, it does give an
understanding of those who caused the French Revolution and their
attack against “thrones and altars.” The French Revolution was not
caused by the poor peasants of France.
