Age: 14+ High School 1 Full Credit
In Medieval Literature Live, students will read, discuss, and write about some of the greatest works from the Medieval era. Understanding the literature of a certain time period encourages a love of that time period.
The class will meet once per week over Zoom, on Wednesdays from 2:30-3:30 PM Central Standard Time, according to the schedule in Lesson 1 below. The format will be discussion-based with short lectures focused on the historical context of a particular book or play.
The class will give your student a thorough understanding of basic literary principles, reading comprehension skills, and a strong writing foundation. Students will read a variety of literary forms and learn how to write a basic thesis paper and find their own voice. The papers should reflect the student’s personal opinion as well as his ability to grasp literary concepts. The course can be used alongside Dave Raymond’s Christendom course, but is also structured to stand alone.
