Lightning Lit & Comp: British Lit Early-Mid 19th Century 3rd Edition (Lightning Lit & Comp)

New Third Edition, Perfect Bound- Hewitt's Lightning Literature and Composition guides use full-length novels, autobiographies, plays, essays, short stories, and poems to teach deep reading and composition skills. Unlike some literature programs that take a scatter-shot approach (where none of the literature seems connected) or that try to dump too much into one book, Lightning Literature guides focus on a few classics in depth, in a systematic manner. These guides are available for junior high and high school. Students read in the following order: William Blake (selected poems; text in this Guide); Jane Austen (novel: Pride and Prejudice); Sir Walter Scott (novel: Ivanhoe); Thomas Carlyle ("Essay on Scott," text in this Guide); Samuel Taylor Coleridge, William Wordsworth, Lord Byron, Percy Bysshe Shelley (selected poems; text in this Guide); Mary Shelley (novel: Frankenstein); Charlotte Bronte (novel: Jane Eyre); William Makepeace Thackeray ("Rebecca and Rowena," text in this Guide). Lessons cover description, point of view, persuasive writing, setting, humor, character, and imagery and tone in poetry and include information about the authors, comprehension questions, writing exercises, and reading lists appropriate to the period or subject. The Guide includes comprehension questions, semester and full-year schedules, and a bibliography. Free Teacher's Guide is included with answers and schedules.
