Scenario: You are hosting a dinner party and have invited only the main characters in the Protestant and Catholic Reformations. One of the most integral parts in planning a successful dinner party is the seating arrangement. A successful seating arrangement facilitates lively discussion and creates a comfortable, relaxed environment.
Your task is to decide the seating chart for your dinner party. You must include all ten of the characters below. 1. Leo X
5. Martin Luther
8. Frederick of Saxony
2. Ulrich Zwingli
6. Henry VIII
9. Clement VII
3. Charles V
7. John Calvin
10. Thomas More
4. Ignatius Loyola
Part One (Visual): Indicate who is sitting where at the rectangular table. Simply replace the
“Seat One” text with the name of the person you want to sit there.
Seat One
Seat Two
Seat Three
Seat Four
Seat Ten
Seat Five
Seat Nine
Seat Eight
Seat Seven
Seat Six
Part Two (Writing) Over 2-3 pages, go around the table and identify each of the characters and then defend your seating arrangement. Consider the following questions as you discuss your seating arrangement: What are the religious/doctrinal beliefs of each character? What do the characters have in common? What topics of conversation could the characters discuss? What do you think they would discuss? You may even want to include a section on why you would absolutely, under no circumstances put certain characters next to each other. Write your response below
