Best Intro to Political Theory Class Ever

So I have to get in book orders for my (purported) summer class, which means I have to figure out what I want to spend a month of my summer reading and thinking about. This is what I've come up with so far:

Plato's Symposium
Aristotle's Ethics
Augustine's Confessions
Rousseau's Emile (parts) and The Second Discourse
essays by Montaigne
Burke's Reflections on the Revolution
essays by Oakeshott

Of course with lots of poetry thrown in...
