For Thursday, October 24

TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT YOURSELF IN THE MIRROR.  WHAT DO YOU SEE?  THIS IS A MAGIC MIRROR THAT CAN REFLECT BOTH THE INSIDE AND THE OUTSIDE OF A PERSON.  WHAT DOES GOD SEE?  THINK ABOUT IT, AND BRING YOUR IDEAS TO CLASS.

Read Chapters 13, 14, and 15.  Make sure you are annotating the differences between distorted love and spiritual love.  manipulation vs. giving; selfishness vs. selflessness.

You will be writing an essay for next Monday discussing Lewis's presentation of these two ideas.  In your
mind, ask yourself...why is Lewis showing us these two pictures.  What is his purpose?  We will work together on Thursday developing quality thesis sentences for this essay.

Obviously, you will use his characterizations of Orual and Psyche for this essay, but The Fox and Bardia could come into your argument. 

Continue to highlight allusions to classical mythology and places where Orual sees the truth if only for a moment.
