Some of the slides are a little wordy, so I had to reduce them and break them up into longer slides, but overall, this was a great powerpoint to introduce Romantic and Gothic texts! I was able to transfer the basics to the board and as we read "Rime of the Ancient Mariner," my students were able to identify how the poem fits into the Romantic/Gothic elements. Thank you!

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:
khidore re: Dante's Inferno Canto Questions Packet
HI, I just purchased your Inferno questions packet, and it only goes through Canto 30. Do you have questions for the remaining 4 cantos? As this is the 9th circle of Hell, I would have expected it to be included or for you to have made it clear that you were only including cantos 1-8 if not. Thanks.
January 16, 2013
MissEnglish (TpT Seller)
Hi, I am so sorry that the page was missing. I've sold dozens of these and no one has told me! I can email you last page in addition to posting the questions in this response. (If you'd like the correctly formatted MS Word page, please send me your email address. Again, I apologize; this is an error that I will rectify today. And thank you for letting me know!

lorieregan re: How to Guide for Making Bib and Note cards (MLA Style)
Are these cards formatted according to the 2009 MLA updates? Thanks, Lorie
October 31, 2011
MissEnglish (TpT Seller)
Hi Lorie, The Bib and Note cards examples are fairly simple (so not much MLA 09 changes needed). On the Bib Cards specifically, the only thing missing is the word "Print" or "Web" at the end of the citations. I will be updating that soon. Thanks for asking! :)

drakesstarteacher re: History of the English Language Power Point
On the study guide, I couldn't find 1425, 1564, anything on Shakespeare from the powere point on History of the English language. Were some slides left out?
August 6, 2011
MissEnglish (TpT Seller)
Hi. I just glanced at the study guide and found that it was the outdated one... I thought that my updated version was attached here on the site, but it seems there was a mixup. My apologies. The new sheet had 1425 removed, and 1564 is the birthday of Shakespeare. I usually mention Shakespeare orally, simply reminding the students that he coined many words and was a major influence on not only the English language, but also the dissemination of his plays in written form.
Again, I apologize that your study guide wasn't the current one-- I will try to fix that this week. If I am able to, I will refund your money for this worksheet!
Let me know if you have any questions, and thanks for being a customer! :)
