BJU Fundamentals of Literature: Student Text
In the World Geography guide, the BJU Fundamentals of Literature text alternates with the reading of separate novels and plays. Since the BJU text was meant to be a one-semester text, with the other semester devoted to composition and grammar, adding separate classic novels complements the BJU text well.
The selections within the Fundamentals of Literature text in this course convey and teach literature’s foundational elements of…
- Conflict
- Character
- Theme
- Point of view
- Structure
- Tone.
This course also introduces literary criticism by encouraging students to read and analyze all literature in light of a Christian worldview. That being said, not all reading selections in this course are necessarily Christian. This is intentional. True interpretation and evaluation can only come through studying pieces written from more than one perspective.
BJU Fundamentals of Literature delivers its literature selections in an attractive new format accompanied by…
- Rich illustrations
- Author biographies
- Application questions that promote critical thinking skills
This course also includes the full-length drama “Cyrano De Bergerac” for study as part of the student text.
