Hi -

Check your birthdate, and use it to determine the season. For each week, please carefully read the items marked ALL, and the items for your season. Look over the other items carefully enough so that you can speak intelligently about how they are related to the ones you have read carefully, and can make interesting contributions to discussion of those items. We will conduct the class as a seminar, leading off with presentations about the readings by members of the seasons gorups. You may want to confer wihtin your groups before the class meets.

Before reading the texts, please take a look at theory.htm which is my attempt to provide a framweork for these "theoretical" exercises.
