Lesson 1 (from Part 1, Chapter 1)

Objective

Part 1, Chapter 1

The student will give opinions about the benevolence of religious organizations versus the benevolence of the state.

1. The teacher will lecture on Graham Greene while eliciting any information the students may have. Greene is most commonly thought of in terms of political espionage tales of undercover agents, although that is not the exclusive area of his distinguished career.
