Due March 27th

After reading the sonnets and Act I and II of Titus Andronicus, please pick either a scene from the play or one particular sonnet to do a close reading. This close reading should be 2-3 pages in length and include one style element and one theme element.

If there are any questions, please leave a comment and I will reply expediently.

Take a look at this video before we start reading the play. Watch how Titus (Anthony Hopkins) is portrayed and what do you expect from the play thus far? Is anything foreshadowed in this scene that you can spot?
