ESSENTIAL QUESTION: How does Renaissance literature reflect humanist values?
We read together the excerpt from Spenser's The Faerie Queen and appreciated the Spenserian stanza with the alexendrine ninth line.
I gave notes about the sonnet form. (See the link in the class chat.) We reviewed together all of Spenser and Sidney's sonnets (and Wyatt's second one) and learners practiced the steps to appreciating poetry.
NEXT CLASS: more on the sonnet
