Reflections On Week 45? (4-10)

  Link to the readings

I definitely wrote this yesterday, and I have no idea what happened to it. I'm guessing I thought I was using it as a template and overwrote it instead.

Quick review on this week's readings:

Nov 4  Polyeucte by Constable: 3/5 Weird translation, but seems like an interesting play.

Nov 5 The Life of Sir Thomas More by Roper: 1/5 Dude really liked his FiL.

Nov 6 "The Force of Gravitation" by Faraday: 3/5 Cool science.

Nov 7 "The First of the Three Ladies from Baghdad": 3/5 Sick bars, and I learned what a hafiz is.

Nov 8 "Paradise Regained" by Milton: 1/5 Who asked for the Bible as a questionable poem?

Nov 9 Plasms: 2/5 A couple of these are half decent.

Nov 10 The Deserted Village by Goldsmith: 3/5 I even reread this whole thing! (It was decent.)

Average: 2.29 This week got one more point on the rerate.

Overall Thoughts on The Project:

I think a one point difference on a scale of 0-35 is pretty decent (less then a 3% spread). I don't really remember what I put here yesterday. I think something about being glad to reread Goldsmith.

I never realized how little of Pride and Prejudice is actually about Darcy and Elizabeth's relationship.

 Also, listening to audio books isn't reading. That doesn't make it bad, it's just its own thing.
