3 SHAKESPEAREAN DRAMA AND CRITICAL LENSES: HAMLET AND A COMEDY (TBD) Few literary works demand as much from students as does Hamlet, which might account for its frequent appearance on AP exams. Its range of characters, language, and themes provide numerous possibilities for analysis, interpretation, argumentation, and even reflection. Whether looking at the ways different characters respond to crisis, the way ghosts (literal and figurative) haunt us, or the struggles between individual needs and societal expectations, students have a wealth of resources to consider. What are the origins of schools of criticism, and does literary criticism differ from literary theory? What is the value of applying a critical lens to a complex text?what does it mean to read against a text?how does Hamlet present a commentary on the concept of sin?what makes Hamlet a tragic character?

4 UNIT 7: BEOWULF - ARCHETYPES IN ACTION Frequently considered among the earliest examples of British literature, Beowulf gives students the chance to read this narrative epic poem not only as a seminal work, but also as a masterpiece of rhetorical and linguistic strategies. How do writers craft effective narratives? What poetic devices enhance stories by developing characters? What values and beliefs were important to the members of the Anglo-Saxon culture? How were these values and beliefs instilled in the members of the Anglo-Saxon community, particularly the warriors? In what ways does Beowulf embody the ideal Anglo-Saxon warrior? Even though the Anglos and Saxons lived in a predominantly oral culture, what role did language, literacy, and literature play in preserving their history and influencing their society? How did the characteristics of Anglo-Saxon poetry help the poet to compensate for a lack of print resources? We read a version of Beowulf that has been translated into Modern English. How have various writers translated the original text into Modern English, and how do these differences affect the reading of the epic? MAJOR ASSESSMENT: Beowulf Character Analysis Heroic Journey (J. Campbell) Modern Interpretation UNIT 8: CHALLENGES OF THE MODERN NOVEL What does a modern novel tell us about history and memory?
