I hope you will find the readings profound and personally meaningful this summer! There are three short readings to complete this summer to spur on your thinking. The 3 books you will need are: Sophocles’ Antigone (actually not a “book” per se but a play), Michael J. Sandel’s Justice: What’s the Right Thing to Do? , and Viktor E. Frankl’s Man’s Search for Meaning.
IMPORTANT NOTE: New Albany High School is required to provide books at no cost for college credit plus courses like this one. However, you MAY NOT annotate or highlight the books provided by the school unless you plan on buying the book from the school. An alternative that most students choose to take is to buy personal copies of the books. This option allows for annotation (something most college students do) and allows you to avoid the hassle of being billed by, and having to pay, the school. Furthermore, finding used books, or books on Kindle (or equivalent e-readers), are often less expensive options than books provided by the school (sometimes such books can be found for pennies or even at no cost). If you choose to buy your own personal books, please buy the correct ISBN editions, which are noted just below, or get an online e-book version to be read on a reader such as Kindle, etc. Regarding Antigone by Sophocles , please buy the Richard Emil Braun (ed.) edition of Antigone (Greek Tragedy in New Translations, Feb. 1, 1990) currently being sold used and new on Amazon. You may also buy the Kindle version from Amazon for your Kindle, Mac, or PC. You can find this book on Amazon, or another online retailer, by simply doing a search using one of the following codes ISBN-10: 0195061675 or ISBN-13: 978 - 0 - 19506167 - 3. Again, whether you go to a bookstore or buy the book online, make sure you get the exact same edition we will be using in class with the same editor and ISBN codes listed (the exact code restriction does not apply if you get the Kindle or another online e-book version).

In Man’s Search for Meaning , read Frankl’s heartbreaking and inspiring memoir titled Experiences in a Concentration Camp (you only need to read this part of the book for this summer assignment). I want you to really focus on the profound life lessons that can be learned from Frankl and the experience he shares. I also want you to be aware of any moment in the reading that hits you hard, something that is unbelievable or affects you in a profound emotional way. 1) As you read, note parts of the text you that connect to a life lesson using a post-it note of one color (you can highlight if you have your own copy of the book). Also, as you read, note unbelievable and/or profound moments that strike you emotionally with a different color post-it note (you can highlight if you have your own copy of the book). When you are done, look through the areas of the book you noted and type your top five quotes related to each bold prompt above (i.e. five life
lesson quotes and 5 profoundly emotional quotes ) that you would like to discuss in class. Write a heading for each of the two sections of five quotes. Cite the page and paragraph numbers for each of your quotes. 2) Following the two quote lists, type a paragraph that explains what you think Frankl thought was the ultimate lesson he took from his experiences paying particular attention in your writing to what he says about suffering (you must include an understanding of Frankl’s view on suffering as part of the ultimate lesson he is trying to get across). Explain your conclusion with cited support from the text by citing both page and paragraph numbers (including page and paragraph numbers...e.g. 5.7, 5 being the page and 7 being the paragraph). Include at least three citations for support. NOTE: If you use Kindle, or another e-reader, version you might not have page numbers available so make sure you specifically quote the words of at least part of each section of text you cite so the words can be searched for location in the e-reader when necessary. PLEASE read the full text assigned to achieve a thorough understanding. Students often try to take quotes out of the text without reading the full text and end up taking the quotes out of context in the process. Finally, you are encouraged to read Part II about Logotherapy if you have time. I will be covering some of Part II in class.
The title of this course at Kenyon College is PSCI 101 y- 102 y: The Quest for Justice. With this in mind, your task is to focus on WHAT YOU THINK IS JUST as you read the play by Sophocles. PART 1: 3 DEFINITIONS OF JUSTICE Before you read Antigone , in this section: 1) Write out Sandel’s definition of Justice from Justice: What’s the Right Thing to Do? (cite Sandel’s name and the location of the definition in his book including the page and paragraph numbers) 2) Write out a definition/explanation of justice from a credible dictionary/encyclopedia and cite the source 3) Write out the mission statement of the United States Department of Justice****. Include these definitions as initial
