Cross Genre – Sonnet
For this assignment, I wanted to make the connection between poetry and music. As poetry is in itself a performative act, I wanted to communicate some of the emotion of the poem in musical form. Sonnets naturally lend themselves to song form as the rhythm and rhyme make it easy to cross genres!

Assignment 3- A Modest Amendment
Posted on behalf of Meno:
Here is my cross-genre translation for Jonathan Swift’s A Modest Proposal. As described in class, I decided to translate the text into a legal document due to its contextual appropriateness. This would serve as a fun, purposeful, and challenging activity for senior grades studying politics, government, or law.

Assignment 2- A Modest Proposal (Kelsey/Meno)
Posted on behalf of Meno:
Kelsey presented the satirical text A Modest Proposal by Jonathan Swift. The text was a comical take and proposed solution to the growing population and poverty within Ireland during the 18th century. Kelsey did an excellent by guiding our group mates through the older text through her articulate reading of the text, followed by carefully presenting the graphic organizer I made to guide the readers. Well done!
