  • Addition to Summer Letter
    May 2020 Dear Student, You are enrolled in Advanced Placement English Literature and Composition for the coming school year. Bowling Green High School has offered this course since 1983. I thought that I would tell you a little bit about the course and what will be expected of you. Please share this letter with your parents or guardians. A.P. Literature and Composition is a year-long class that is taught on a college freshman level. This means that we will read college level texts—often from college anthologies—and we will deal with other materials generally taught in college. You should be advised that some of these texts are sophisticated and contain mature themes and/or advanced levels of difficulty. In this class we will concentrate on refining reading, writing, and critical analysis skills, as well as personal reactions to literature. A.P. Literature is not a survey course or a history of literature course so instead of studying English and world literature chronologically, we will be studying a mix of classic and contemporary pieces of fiction from all eras and from diverse cultures. This gives us an opportunity to develop more than a superficial understanding of literary works and their ideas. Writing is at the heart of this A.P. course, so you will write often in journals, in both personal and researched essays, and in creative responses. You will need to revise your writing. I have found that even good students—like you—need to refine, mature, and improve their writing skills. You will have to work diligently at revising major essays.

  • AP Language and Composition 2018-2019 Summer Reading Assignment
    AP Language and Composition 2018-2019 Summer Reading Assignment Dear Students: If you are receiving this letter, you have accepted the challenge of taking the AP English Language and Composition course in the fall. I am looking forward to working with you and helping you work toward achieving your potential as readers, writers and thinkers between now and the AP Exam next spring. According to the College Board course description, the AP English Language and Composition course “engages students in becoming skilled readers of prose written in a variety of contexts, and in becoming skilled writers who compose for a variety of purposes.” This sounds a great deal like what you have been doing in English class for the past several years, right? It’s true that since this course revolves around nonfiction that we will be exploring different areas than you might have previously; however, the bottom line is that everything we do in AP Lang is designed to support your growth as critical readers and effective writers. To help prepare for next year, you will be reading, taking some notes and preparing a short presentation on a topic or issue of your choice. The READING and NOTETAKING you do this summer will help you ​ ​ get a jumpstart on a couple of assignments: an interest-based introductory project (Semester 1, Week 1) and a comparative paper centered around the topic and implications of your nonfiction book choice (Semester 2). The first week of school, you will be assigned a PRESENTATION that will allow you to ​ ​ share a topic or issue through interest-based reading of multiple types of texts (print and non-print) that you choose.

  • HI 408 War in Film and Literature
    HI 408 War in Film and Literature Cathal J. Nolan Associate Professor of History Executive Director, International History Institute Combat, killing, suffering, death. This course explores these vivid human experiences through great, and lesser, works of film and literature. Topics range widely, from medieval Japan to Africa, the Americas and Europe, the two 20th century world wars and various Asmall wars@ of the 19th through 21st centuries. We explore "the angle of vision" problem: who should we trust more, eye-witness accounts of war, great poets and novelists, modern film-makers, or military and other historians? Who gets us closest to the "truth" about war as a fundamental element of the human experience and condition? Can we draw general conclusions about the experience of war? Or do we falsely impose our own ideas on history? Note: The course is thematic rather than narrative. Some of you will likely find it necessary to do additional reading on the general history of war (Allure of Battle is assigned to this end), and reading that situates specific wars in overarching patterns of military history. I will provide guidance in class and to those who ask for it outside class. Consult the course site on Blackboard, where there are many additional features, from photos and music files to videos, to still and animated maps.
