Assigned readings will be available in the course packet.
The readings are listed here in the order in which they appear in the
packet. This order corresponds to that in which they will be first
considered. A couple of them will be considered more than once. The list
is in two parts, corresponding roughly to the first half and second half
of the course. (See also the course schedule.)
