European Literature

European Literature is a semester-long survey course of European writers from ancient Greece to the modern day. Students will encounter a range of genres including drama, poetry, fictional narrative, religious writing, and memoir. Writing assignments will include research, personal response, an article for the school’s journalistic blog, and the selection of an artistic piece for the senior class’s literary magazine (the Eagle’s Eye).

As this is a college preparatory course, the demands on students to think, read extensively, and write are considerable. This class meets the needs of students who do not pass the CLEP or AP Language tests.
