1 Instructor: Natalie Elliott Room C101 Conference Period & Tutorials: 7 th period Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. Tutorials Monday-Thursday mornings, 7:45-8:25. Afternoons by appointment. Texts & : Falling into Theory: Conflicting Views on Reading Literature, 2 nd Edition edited by David H. Richter Antigone by Sophocles King Lear by William Shakespeare Hamlet by William Shakespeare Candide by Voltaire Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brönte Great Expectations by Charles Dickens A Doll s House by Henrik Ibsen Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad Lit Circle Selections: No Exit by Jean-Paul Sartre, Light in August by William Faulkner, Brideshead Revisited by Evelyn Waugh, or Sula by Toni Morrison AP Literature and Composition Course Description Excerpted from the College Board An AP English Literature and Composition course engages students in the careful reading and critical analysis of imaginative literature. Through the close reading of selected texts, students deepen their understanding of the ways writers use language to provide both meaning and pleasure for their readers. As they read, students consider a work s structure, style and themes, as well as such smaller-scale elements as the use of figurative language, imagery, symbolism, and tone. The course includes intensive study of representative works from various genres and periods, concentrating on works of recognized literary merit such as texts that are frequently referenced on the AP Literature and Composition exam. Thus, reading in an AP course is both wide and deep. This reading necessarily builds upon and complements the reading done in previous English courses so that by the time students complete their AP course, they will have read works from several genres and periods from the 16 th to the 21 st century. More importantly, they will have gotten to know a few works well. In the course, they read deliberately thoroughly, taking time to understand a work s complexity, to absorb its richness of meaning, and to analyze how that meaning is embodied in literary form. In addition to considering a work s literary artistry, students reflect on the social and historical values it reflects and embodies. Careful attention to
2 both textual detail and historical context provides a foundation for interpretation, whatever critical perspectives are brought to bear on the literary works studied. A generic method for the approach to such close reading involves the following elements: the experience of literature, the interpretation of literature, and the evaluation of literature. By experience, we mean the subjective dimension of reading and responding to literary works, including precritical impressions and emotional responses. By interpretation, we mean the analysis of literary works through close reading to arrive at an understanding of their multiple meanings. By evaluation, we mean both an assessment of the quality artistic achievement of literary works and a consideration of their social and cultural values. All three of these aspects of reading are important for an AP English Literature and Composition course. Moreover, each corresponds to an approach to writing about literary works. Writing to understand a literary work may involve writing response and reaction papers, along with annotation, freewriting and keeping some from of a reading journal. Writing to explain a literary work involves analysis and interpretation and may include writing brief focused analyses on aspects of language and structure. Writing to evaluate a literary work involves making and explaining judgments about its artistry and exploring its underlying social and cultural values through analysis, interpretation, and argument. In short, students in an AP English Literature and Composition course read actively. The works taught in the course require careful, deliberative reading. And the approach to analyzing and interpreting the material involves students in learning how to make careful observations of textual detail, establish connections among their observations, and draw from those connections a series of inferences leading to an interpretive conclusion about the meaning and value of a piece of writing. Course Objectives Upon completing the AP English Literature and Composition course, students should be able to analyze and interpret work of literature; compose essays consisting of expository, analytical, and argumentative approaches; employ a balance of generalization with specific illustrative detail; structure writings with a logical organization enhanced by techniques like transition, repetition, and emphasis; exercise analytical command of figures of speech in poetry and imaginative writing; utilize a variety of sentence structures in their writing; demonstrate knowledge of a wide-range vocabulary used with denotative accuracy and connotative resourcefulness; employ an effective use of rhetoric, including controlling tone, maintaining a consistent voice, and achieving emphasis through parallelism and antithesis; appropriately synthesize text evidence and cite using MLA formatting and conventions; demonstrate understanding and mastery of standard written English as well as stylistic maturity in their own writings;
3 move effectively through the stages of the writing process, with careful attention to interpretation, drafting, revising, editing, and review; write thoughtfully about their own process of composition; analyze image as text; and evaluate and critically engage texts as living documents in a variety of contexts, including the political, social, and historical. Course Requirements It is required that a student enrolled in an AP course at NYOS take the associated AP exam for that course to ensure that the student is as prepared for college as possible. Towards the end of January, Bethany Watts will furnish information about test registration. Updated prices will be released and communicated as soon as they are made available (the prices last year were $91 per exam, or less if you met the requirements for free and reduced lunch). Please plan accordingly. Assignment Expectations The majority of outside work assignments will be process or prepared writings. This means that, unless noted otherwise, the expectation is that these drafts will be taken through the writing process, sometimes required for in-class revision exercises. Final copies must be typed, doublespaced, and formatted consistent with MLA guidelines. These essays will be submitted via Turnitin.com. Course ID information for Turnitin.com will be communicated at the beginning of the year. Student Progress Tracking Expectations Each quarter, I will furnish you with a list of objectives that represent the College Board requirements for this course and other learning goals to prepare you for success on the AP English Literature exam. As we cover those objectives throughout the course (usually they will be clearly identified on the posted daily Agenda), I expect you to keep track of your own progress, rating what you understand and what you need more practice with, so that you can take an active responsibility in your learning. At the end of each quarter, you will confer with me oneon-one to discuss your progress and action plan for hitting all of your learning goals by the time of the exam administration. Missed Work If you are absent, check with your neighbor to see what you have missed, review the work, and then ask me any questions. It is the student s responsibility to ask for any handouts or assignments that they need to complete their make-up work. According to NYOS guidelines, for each day you are absent you will have one day to complete any missed assignments. Tests or projects will be due on the day of your return. Major papers assigned in advance of the absence are still due on the day in question unless you have requested an extension.
4 Late Work Per NYOS policy, late work cannot be accepted in an AP course. Deadlines can be negotiated on an as-needed basis, but conference with me beforehand is required. This would be the expectation in a college course, so it is the expectation of an AP course.
