Note: I will list 9 of the following terms on the test and you will need to identify 7 of them. 2 points for each id = total of 15 points on the test (1 point is "free"). I have listed page numbers from the Cambridge Companion in an effort to help reduce your time in finding the references. The page number are for an extended treatment or a treatment of the subject in a boxed-off text, but they are also found in other places, including biblical references and in the lectures.
