ORA ET LABORA.

CARAVAGGIO. St Jerome (detail). 1606.
Oil on canvas. Galleria Borghese, Rome.

Ora et labora. This is our objective this week (and next), for we have much to cover before the Thanksgiving break. Though it would not be a bad thing if this monkish refrain were our motto and practice all the time. Today we are also focusing on your research projects. I hope to see good presentations, so use your time well and wisely. Be productive. After all, you live, like the monks of old, orare et laborare. That is, "To pray and to work."

2. Study for a bit.

6. Continue to work in groups on Coriolanus Project
