British Literature & Composition
Using selected writings from British literature as a springboard for study, this course will help prepare students for the kinds of expository writing experiences they can expect in college. Students will craft writing assignments examining different essay styles and discussing basic themes which helped shape British culture. The themes to be examined reflect changes in the way man looks at himself in relation to God, to others, and to his environment. The changes will be discussed in the context of cultural, political, scientific and religious developments in British history. Works by Chaucer, Shakespeare, Donne, Milton, Wordsworth, Dickens and Hardy will be considered.
