Description: This course is reserved for the exceptionally able student of literature and composition. The structure
of the course is designed to duplicate that of a freshman college level literature course. British literature is studied by
literary periods and genres. Critical thinking and analysis are emphasized as well as historical, political and societal
influences on the authors and their writings. Essays and papers are critical in nature, with emphasis placed on
depth, development and analytical techniques. In addition to British authors, select authors from world literature
are used to reinforce thematic and ideological perspectives. Course work will require students to analyze and
evaluate information through course relevant research and related writing assignments.
