As we discuss sensitive topics and issues, we will analyze the historical context in which novels were written, the author's background and worldview, and the story's time period. Discussion is focused on what the characters believe, what the author intended, and what beliefs were central to the literary time period. Students' various ideas and opinions are always respected.
