“Tragedy is an imitation of an action of high importance, complete and of some amplitude; in language enhanced by distinct and varying beauties; acted not narrated; by means of pity and fear effecting its purgation of these emotions.”

As I’m sure you can understand that, with nearly 80 participants in our OpenLab group, it is not possible for me to respond individually to every single post. However, I assure you that I do read every post. I will, of course, be jumping into the forum from time to time, usually in the first few days of the week. This discussion board really belongs to you and your colleagues.
Reminder: Your first writing assignment is due this Sunday, October 4. For detailed instructions, please revisit Activity 5 on the Week 3 page. Be sure to review formatting guidelines before submitting.
