Some of the literature we will be reading include mature themes. For example, Canterbury Tales has some sexual content, although we will not be focusing on those stories. The Arthur Legends have themes of incest and many others have themes of dark-arts or magic. Many stories were written from a Judeo-Christian author point of view and those views are expressed in their writing, while some authors were unapologetically agnostic . Epic battles and violence, murder and suicide are in many of these books.

I am a certified IEW teacher and have used this method to homeschool my own children who have successfully completed college composition and literature courses. (Hurray!) I have taught British Literature in traditional classrooms, co-ops for homeschooling students, via google meet classes and around my own kitchen table. Reseñas
