1. Choose one significant change that

Paper (2-3pp.), due Sunday, April 21, 2024
1. Choose one significant change that the opera Dido & Aeneas (Purcell/Tate) makes to
Virgil’s Aeneid (e.g. a new character, a change in a character’s behavior, a change to the
plot, etc.), and explain why that change is important or interesting: how does it affect our
understanding of the overall Dido/Aeneas story?
2. Whose argument in favor of sex is more persuasive: Donne’s (in “The Flea”) or Marvell’s
(in “To His Coy Mistress”)? Explain.
3. Would it be possible to do a movie version of Oroonoko today? If so, explain what the
biggest challenge(s) would be and how you might overcome them. If not, why not?
However you answer the question, your argument should be based on concrete, detailed
evidence.
