Class Experience

US Grade 9 - 12
Explore the rich tradition of British literature.  Develop skills to engage in literary analysis and discussion of celebrated works and uncover the rich tapestry of British literary history.  Explore the themes, characters, and historical contexts that have shaped these classic texts, while improving your writing skills.

This class can coordinate with my European History course if desired.  

This 8 week semester course will explore British Literature of the 18th and 19th centuries.  Feel free to start with any of the 4 parts to this series.  We will trace the development of this literature into the 19th century.  This course will explore the historical context for each piece, as well as the literary features of the writings.  We will read a variety of genres of writing from the most significant British writers of this time .  Our focus each week will be a particular author or piece as representative of each greater literary movement.  Students will be expected to read outside of class and come to class prepared to discuss their reading.  There will be writing assignments each week that students can submit for additional feedback and assessment.  This class is perfect for literary lovers, history lovers, or anyone just curious about British history and literary culture. 

I highly recommend you take my Literary Analysis Essay writing class prior or concurrent to this class to develop your literary analysis writing skills.  The British literature series (4 parts) + literary analysis, can work towards the AP English Literature course and test.   I am an approved AP English literature online provider and this is an authorized course.

From a former student, "Your literature classes really prepared me well for college but also continued developing my critical thinking skills, world view, and love of learning."

What you can expect from this class:
-an appreciation for British literature
-an understanding of the historical context for key pieces
-an increased ability to use literary analysis in discussion
-improvement in your literary analysis writing skills
-instructor feedback to help you meet your goals

Learning Goals

Students will learn the major literary movements and authors of British literature of the 18th and 19th centuries.  They will explore literary terms and styles, as well as how to discuss literature both orally and written.
