Reading List

Below are the selections of novels, plays, fiction, non-fiction, radio recording, and films we plan to cover. Each will require journal writings, quizzes, a final test, and literary analysis papers. To order books via the internet and download the complete text go to any of the following sites.

Gutenberg.org
ccel.org (Christian Classics Ethereal Library)
➢ Bartleyby.com
➢ Spy.org

You are expected to purchase your own copy of books or “text” so you may make notes in the margins, annotate, and highlight any part you wish.

(I will inform you approximately one month in advance so that you may purchase, check-out at the library, buy the e-book, or download these texts. Please note that this list is NOT chronological.)

2. Paradise Lost, John Milton
3. The Importance of Being Earnest, Oscar Wilde
