  • The Book of Three by Lloyd Alexander
    Teacher Guide The Book of Three by Lloyd Alexander Questions for Socratic Discussion by Melanie Huff © 2012, The Center for Literary Education 3350 Beck Road Rice, WA 99167 (509) 738-2837 www.centerforlit.com Contents Introduction 2 Questions about Structure: Setting 4 Questions about Structure: Characters 6 Questions about Structure: Conflict and Plot 11 Questions about Structure: Theme 14 Questions about Style 16 Questions about Context 18 Suggested Essay Assignments 19 Story Charts 20 Introduction This teacher guide is intended to assist the teacher or parent in conducting meaningful discussions of literature in the classroom or home school. Questions and answers follow the pattern presented in Teaching the Classics, the Center for Literary Education’s two day literature seminar. Though the concepts underlying this approach to literary analysis are explained in detail in that seminar, the following brief summary presents the basic principles upon which this guide is based. The Teaching the Classics approach to literary analysis and interpretation is built around three unique ideas which, when combined, produce a powerful instrument for understanding and teaching literature: First: All works of fiction share the same basic elements — Context, Structure, and Style. A literature lesson that helps the student identify these elements in a story prepares him for meaningful discussion of the story’s themes. Context encompasses all of the details of time and place surrounding the writing of a story, including the personal life of the author as well as historical events that shaped the author’s world. Structure includes the essential building blocks that make up a story, and that all stories have in common: Conflict, Plot (which includes exposition, rising action, climax, denouement, and conclusion), Setting, Characters and Theme.

  • Lloyd Alexander 30
    Der phantastische Autorenbrief Lloyd Alexander 30. 01. 1924 - 17. 05. 2007 Mai 2007 unabhängig kostenlos Ausgabe 441 Lloyd Chudley Alexander starb am 17.05.2007 im Alter von 83 Jahren. Er wurde am 30. Januar 1924 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Vereinigte Staaten von Amerika geboren, wuchs dort auf und lebte dort bis zu seinem Tod. Bereits mit drei Jahren lernte er lesen und interessierte sich seither für Bücher. Später erweiterte er sein Interesse auf klassische Musik und Zeichnen. Besonders angetan hatten es ihm die keltische und griechische Mythologie, die auch in seinen eigenen Werken ihren Niederschlag fanden. Wie bei vielen seiner Altersklasse war ein Buch über den sagenhaften König Arthus und die dazu gehörigen Heldensagen für ihn Meinungs bildend. Neben diesen Sagen beschäftigte er sich mit den Mabinogin, jener Sammlung klassischer walisischer Sagen, die später so viel Einfluss auf ihn ausübten. Nach seinem Highschool-Abschluss und einer kurzen Episode als Laufbursche bei einer Bank besuchte er das örtliche College. Bereits nach dem ersten Trimester verließ er das College und trat in die US-Army ein. Er wurde zuerst nach Wales zum militärischen Geheimdienst (Army Combat Intelligenz) versetzt, wo er wieder auf keltische und walisische Mythen traf. Lloyd Alexander, der neben spanisch und französisch sich im Selbststudium walisisch beibrachte, konnte so die Schauplätze seiner Heldensagen selbst besuchen. Die Kenntnisse seines Dialektes öffnete ihm in Wales viele Tore, so dass er seine Studien über diese Sagenwelt weiter vorantreiben konnte. Viele dieser Eindrücke verarbeitete er in seinen Büchern. Anfang 1945 wurde er nach Paris versetzt, wo er in der Gegenspionage arbeitete. Nach dem Krieg besuchte er die Universität von Paris.
