we'll be pairing two written texts that we think "speak" to each other in interesting ways, and supplying a few questions and ideas for working with the two together. One of the excerpts will, of course, always be from The New York Times - sometimes ripped from that week's headlines, and other times from the archives. The other excerpt will usually come from an often-taught literary, historical, scientific or mathematical text. We will also include visuals - photographs, videos, infographics or illustrations - that might be used as additional texts on the topic.
