Sep 20 Assignment

I need to study more
  1.  Catullus in Performance by Marilyn Skinner article
  2. Authorial Arrangement of the Collection: Debate Past and Present by Marilyn Skinner article
  3. Translate Catullus 68:119-160 and Catullus 110-114
  4. Translate the poems for the commentary 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, and 110-114

Notes for the Commentary:
  • Wiseman gives the historical background.
  • Skinner gives theoretical background and summarizes the order of the poems
  • Gaisser discusses intertextuality and all the different kinds of them

In the commentary, try to bring the intertextualities into the comments. Bring the historical background, and bring some of the theoretical analysis.

The ideal reader for the commentary is someone in Latin 201.

On the Skinner article:
The different kinds of textual audiences as actual, authoritative, narrative, and ideal audiences.
