American Literature
In this class we will examine social issues that have challenged and continue to challenge the United States in its development as a nation and as a society. We will use the literature of American authors as a vehicle to maneuver around different eras in American history. We will analyze the language, the ideas, and the social context of the literary works to understand the authors' purpose. Our assignments will be driven by the English Language Arts Content Standards (Grades 11th and 12th), so make sure to check them out!
