Read or view before class:
Arthur Miller, All My Sons
Please do read the play. But if you'd like to also watch a full performance of it, go here: Act 1 and Acts 2 & 3 . If you're willing to pay $10 or so to rent a really outstanding performance of it, go here.
Prepare or organize before class:
How does the play capture some of the ideas we have studied thus far during the semester?
What are some of the ways characters engage in lying - to others but also to themselves?
Are there specific lines or scenes in the play that particularly struck you? If so, why/how? Be prepared to share them.
