Satire paper
Looking for satire, noticing what is being exposed, and then tieing it to the author's theme is a sophisticated and challenging exercise. The Satire paper assigned in February is quite possibly your most challenging assignment of the year. I commend everyone's effort on their papers. I asked one of your classmates if I could post her paper on my Moodle page as an example of the depth I was looking for; Maclean is not the only student who impressed me with her paper, but I feel her paper is a great example of how satire can be used to show flaws and an author's message. Instead of just saying Austen satirized stereotypes, Maclean goes deeper. I hope you will take the time to look at her paper. I can see who views on Moodle and will take in to account those who make the effort to read it when finalizing 3rd qtr grades.
