Today in class we reviewed Topical Invention (handout) and The Classical Argument form or Aristotelian (handout).

Some of the arguments developed were: Legality is outside one's control and morality is within one's control or sphere of influence.

Even though Skiffington is against slavery, it's his job to enforce the law which causes him a moral dilemma.

When majority population puts in place a certain set of rules to control and protect its people from harm, this is the proper role of government.

We reviewed 7B together and talked about Venn Diagrams. We'll complete 7C on Thursday.

Homework: Develop an outline for TKW essay for a classical argument. The topic is legality vs. morality. Use, "slavery" as depicted in TKW to prove your thesis.

Use the characters to illustrate teh legality and the moral issues connected to slavery, the institution.
