We revisited the word "deliberate" and examined the central section of Walden beginning "I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately . . .." What Thoreau means by this a is a key to what he is about.
HW due Tuesday:
Read the selections from the “Brute Neighbors” chapter of Walden (pp. 240-43, up to the “Conclusion”) and type one 87-word chunk answering the following question: What meaning or purpose do the Battle of the Ants and the Story of the Loon share? (Or, put differently, what common statement do the two incidents make?) Combine CM and CDs.
