Today we are working on our Coriolanus Projects. Remember, that whenever Shakespeare gives us the events of the ancient world, it is never as it was. His versions of Roman stories and events are always processed through the 11 centuries of Christian civilization that preceded. Consider, therefore, the Biblical wisdom in light of this assignment.

2. Work in groups on Coriolanus Project: 
1. Here it is as a Word Doc.
2. Check out this new source: The Biblical Case for Limited Government.
3. Review HW:
