Continuing Macbeth and the Project Calendars

Today in class, we read a section of Macbeth in which the nature and character of Lady Macbeth is explored. Unlike her husband, who is cautious to the point of being meek, Lady Macbeth is vehemently power-hungry and brash. She is very myopic in her desire to overthrow King Duncan, and eventually taunts her husband into actually going through with the murder. She famously tells Macbeth to "unsex me here," and demands that he not view her as just a female. Lady Macbeth tosses aside her femininity in order to carry out the brutalities of homicide and treason.

We have also begun to work on creating our own calenders for when different parts of our projects are due. My calender is done. I have arranged it in a way that encourages me to do the initial reading, research, and thinking relatively early, leaving me with a lot of time to actually write the paper itself, as this is the part of the process that typically takes me the most time by far. I have picked H. P. Lovecraft for sure, and I have already acquired several good resources on him (partially with the help of Ms. Walton, as per your recommendation).
