Dante

Read one Canto aloud each day.

1. Why does Dante use flames for shades in XXVI & XXVII?

2. Analyze the contrapasso of the sowers of scandal and schism.

3. Why is lying like leprosy?

4. Why are the three types of sin "concentric"?

1. In his dialogue "Meno", Plato says: "There is no teaching, but only recollection." What would Augustine say about this?
2. What is the relationship between the self and memory?
