Am Montag habe ich an ancient sexuality paper due. The text about which I am writing is from a funerary inscription of the Augustan age. Die Frage ist: "How does this text help us to better understand the Roman gender system?"
I wrote nearly half of the paper, but it feels weak, so I may revamp the entire thing. I have encountered that difficulty of "I see many things, but I may only include enough for about two pages". This is worse than trying to expand something.
Then I must write a philosophy paper, which I suspect might be simpler, and complete the take-home Latin midterm. For the latter, I must extract all fifty nouns from a certain passage we've translated, stating case, gender, and function. This should present few problems, for I happened to be present in class when Dr. Holland reviewed the text. I scribbled many notes in the margins.
