1 AP English Literature and Composition Syllabus
2 AP English Literature and Composition Course Overview The advanced placement course for English Literature and Composition meets each week for 45 minutes on Mondays and Tuesdays, and for 90 minutes on Thursdays and Fridays. The major focus of this course is on both college level textual analysis and rhetoric. During the AP course, students are exposed to and analyze a variety of texts (both poetry and prose) from both American and British authors, challenging them to perform analysis and engage in critical thinking to reach college level expectations. Students will complete writing assignments that require in depth understanding of literary elements, themes, and overall purposes of texts. During their first novel study, students are introduced to Close Reading techniques (or more specifically Formalism) and write 1 formal Close Reading Paper and 1 in-class Close Reading paper mirroring the types of prompts given on the AP Exam. Students engage in writing workshops to peer review each other s work. Students also write an original dystopian short story based on a utopian society that their peers designed. The students collaborate in small groups to create the societies (providing their peers with written outlines of their utopias). They then collaborate to write original short stories, which are meant to critique and expose the flaws or potential dangers of their peers governmental and social structures. For their first drama study, students read a Tennessee Williams drama and write one Literary Analysis paper drawing from both primary and secondary sources and structure their argument according to Cicero s structure of rhetoric and persuasion. As part of their peer review process, students read some expository prose focused on persuasive and rhetorical writing strategies and apply these strategies to their peers and their own writing. Poetry is included as an ongoing focus throughout the course beginning in the second quarter. Two periods a week are then dedicated to reading and analyzing poetry consistent with the themes or time periods of the current novel study. As part of the ongoing poetry unit, students read a mock-epic poem from the 18th century and write an original mock-epic poem imitating the language and structure that is characteristic of epic poems. Throughout their second novel study, students are introduced to canonical 19th Century texts, including works by Charlotte Bronte, and supplementary poetry by Thomas Hardy and Christina Rossetti. This novel study is focused on thematic, as well as structural analysis of the novel as a whole. Students explore the novel and the place it occupies within the Bildungsroman genre, and read an argumentative essay, which analyzes the characters and the major themes of the novel. Students are required to write a persuasive Literary Analysis paper either countering or defending the essay s position on the novel. For their first short-story unit, students read a selection of contemporary American stories including works by Joyce Carol Oates, Denis Johnson, Raymond Carver, and Tobias Wolff. Students focus on author craft, structure, characterization, form, and theme. They then write an
3 original short story that purposefully follows or deviates from the structure of one of the stories they have read. Beginning in the third quarter, students are introduced to various works of expository prose including works by Nietzsche, Darwin, and Paine. This ongoing unit is structured much like the Poetry unit, with 2 periods a week being dedicated to comprehension and analysis of these texts. This unit also includes direct instruction of rhetorical strategies used by the various authors, as well as direct instruction on academic vocabulary. Students read and analyze a variety of American political speeches and create their own video (or live performance) of a chosen speech. For their third novel study, students read a work of Literary Modernism by American author, H. D. and return to New Criticism and Close Reading. Students are introduced to the basics of Literary Theory and analyze the novel through various literary lenses including New Historicism, Formalism (through New Criticism) and Moral Criticism. Students also create an art project which visually represents the various themes of the novel. The second Drama study of the course is on Othello by William Shakespeare. Students read the play in parts, analyzing the author craft in terms of plot structure, language, stage directions, and characterization. Students watch the film adaptation of the play and analyze how the director and actors deviate or conform to the original script and how these changes affect the themes and audience interpretations of the drama. Students write a formal thematic analysis of the play, drawing from both primary and secondary sources. The fourth Novel Study consists of a Literary Ethics approach to Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov. During this unit, students focus on textual detail and craft in order to analyze and evaluate the aesthetic value of the novel and discuss the cultural and ethical value of the novel. They read expository prose to supplement their understanding of existing ethical theories and beliefs about Literature. Students write a persuasive essay arguing whether or not they believe literature must have ethical value, drawing from various expository texts and making specific references to the novel. The fifth and final novel study of the year is a study of Joyce s A Portrait of An Artist As A Young Man. During this unit, students focus on New Criticism Literary Analysis and reading comprehension of the novel. They then write a personal reflection about something they lost through the process of growing up (e.g. innocence, trust, creativity, confidence in personal beliefs ). Students read supplementary poetry dealing with the theme of growing up and the price of becoming an adult.
