Read "Araby" http://fiction.eserver.org/short/araby.html. Discuss Biblical allusions that Foster does not mention. Look at the example of the "two great jars." Be creative and imaginative in these connections.

Chapter 6: When in Doubt, It's from Shakespeare...

Discuss a work that you are familiar with that alludes to or reflects Shakespeare (other than a sonnet or Shakespearean play). Show how the author uses this connection thematically.
