You have two options for the discussion board this time:

Identify a monologue of at least ten lines, in Act I or II that you think is particularly representative of a character (e.g. what’s something that Helena says that’s just so Helen?). In a post in that character’s discussion board thread, carefully explain why, drawing attention to critical words and phrases and how they evoke the character’s personality in your chosen lines. If the thread doesn’t exist yet, create the topic with the character’s name and with appropriate tage.

OR

Identify several key themes that stand out to you in Ovid’s telling of Pyramus and Thisbe. Compare those themes to the key themes you see emerging in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. For instance, do the two works share sympathetic or critical views of the young lovers? Are there similarities of imagery or plot? Do they share similar morals? Use line numbers and pages for references.
