Dante and The Inferno quiz 2
Only use complete sentences. Remember to back up your ideas with examples from the text. I am expecting to see some quotes with citations. Don’t be afraid to state your own opinion—just don’t forget to support it with details. If you quote an outside source other than the textbook or notes from my lectures—please give full credit to the source*. Please number your answers. Be sure you give plenty of details. If a question has more than one part—don’t forget to do all of them. See point value to help determine length of answer-no answer should be less than 50 words.
