Review

PLEASE NOTE: As of TUESDAY, October 3rd, we are back on the schedule as listed on your syllabus and below.


The midterm is designed to give you the opportunity to demonstrate what you've learned. The midterm will consist of two sections: identification of key terms/short answers, identification of key passages, and short essays.

I) Identification of Key Terms - You will be asked to define key terms that appear in our course texts or that describe important concepts related to these works and to state their significance to our texts. Here are some key terms from this section of the course to review:

Typology
Covenantal Theology
Captivity Narratives
Autobiography
Deism
Natural Law/Natural Rights
Enlightenment

II) Identification of Key Passages - You will choose from a number of key passages from course texts and identify the name of the work and its author before briefly discussing the meaning of the passage and its relation to the significance of the work as a whole. Work on reviewing the literary and stylistic properties of different course texts to aid
your identification.
