As book group members, we are going to start writing questions as we read. The Socratic method of asking thought provoking questions helps us to dig deeper and find more meaning in our studying. Please create a list of questions that you are willing to ask our group at our meetings. The following is a list of ideas to help us with this process:
1. Knowledge - What is going on?
2. Understanding - Why did this happen?
3. Principles - look at outcomes. What behaviors lead to the consequences?
4. Application - How did the characters live or break these principles?
5. Interdisciplinary - Compare two characters from different sources? example: compare Mr. Bennett (from Pride and Prejudice) with Mr. Stratton (from Laddie).
Keep in mind that the main purpose of continuing our education is to seek out WISDOM and VIRTUE through reading the classics.
