If you complete the following with AP - Advanced Placement:

  • The AP English Literature and Composition course is designed to engage students in the careful reading and critical analysis of imaginative literature. Through the close reading of selected texts, students can deepen their understanding of the ways writers use language to provide both meaning and pleasure for their readers. As they read, students should 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.

Students are encouraged to develop their own ideas as they become familiar with various critical approaches to the texts. Students are asked to identify that which constitutes literary value in a text and are encouraged to broaden their definitions of literary culture.
