  • Syllabus for English 200: Introduction to Literature
    Syllabus for English 200: Introduction to Literature Section 001 Instructor: Billy Longino Semester: Spring 2015 email: [email protected] Location: Ferguson 181 Office: LAN 328 Time: MWF 10:00 – 10:50 Office Hours: M/W/F 9:00 – 10:00; Tues 1:30 – 3:30; or by appointment Course Description English 200: Introduction to Literature is an introductory level literature course designed with the goal to aid students, who may not be familiar or versed in the various genres of literature, in acquiring the skills necessary to engage, understand, critically analyze, and (hopefully!) enjoy the literary genres of the shorty story, poetry, the novel, drama, and the graphic novel. As they read a range of works belonging to these genres, students will explore the basic concepts of literary technique, narrative, poetic, and dramatic structures and innovations, and begin to engage with the more advanced cognitive aspects of literature. In addition to these theoretical skills, students will also read below the surface of the texts in this class for their historical, ethical, psychological, social, and philosophical value, developing insight in how literature gives us a window into both the experiences of others and wider appreciation for the human condition. In addition, through assignments in class (quizzes, exams, essays, and discussions) students will learn how to intelligently respond to the sometimes complicated concepts found in works of literature. The goal here is for students to be able to take skills of critical thought beyond engagement with literature only into their wider interactions with an increasingly complicated world, which of course will continue to be reflected in the human output of literary works.

  • Crooked Kingdom Leigh Bardugo Reviewed By: Paufa Phanachet, 14 Star Teen Book Reviewer of Be the Star You Are! Charity
    Crooked Kingdom Leigh Bardugo Reviewed by: Paufa Phanachet, 14 Star Teen Book Reviewer of Be the Star You Are! Charity www.bethestaryouare.org Crooked Kingdom is the final book in the Six of Crows duology. After pulling off the heist of the century, Kaz Brekker and his crew are back to fighting for their lives. Doublecrossed, Kaz finds his most prized possession taken away from him. The crew is low on resource, allies and hope. The highly addictive drug, Juda Parem, which turns Grishas incredibly powerful is still a mystery to be solved. Old and new enemies arise as blood will be shed on the streets of Ketterdam. As always with this series, I love the characters. Kaz Brekker, the anti-hero, who is just so awesome. In this book, we get to see a more vulnerable side to him. We learn more about his backstory and his history. It makes his character seem more real and we see the motivation behind some of his actions. The plot is still very much the YA novel that this series always was. It is kind of interesting, but it is not as thought-provoking as it could be. This is a book that I would recommend for tweens to teens. There is death, sex trafficking and PTSD, but it is not very gory. I would only recommend you to read it or buy it for someone if they or you have read Six of Crows already. It is based a lot on the first book and reading that before would really help understand the story.
