Tonight's Homework

Your homework is to watch the powerpoint and then create any sort of visual representation that explains what the Great Chain of Being is. You can draw it or make it out of whatever you want. I just want to see that you understand the idea of how the Great Chain of Being explains the established world view of Shakespeare’s time.
