Description:Hewitt's Lightning Literature and Composition guides use full-length novels, autobiographies, plays, essays, short stories, and poems to teach deep reading and composition skills. Unlike some literature programs that take a scatter-shot approach (where none of the literature seems connected) or that try to dump too much into one book, Lightning Literature guides focus on a few classics in depth.Students read:C. S. Lewis (nonfiction: The Four Loves)George MacDonald (novel: selections [text in this Guide] from Phantastes: A Faerie Romance)Gerard Manley Hopkins (poetry [text in this Guide]: “Heaven-Haven,” “Easter Communion,” “Pied Beauty,” “Carrion Comfort”)D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones (nonfiction: Why Does God Allow War?)Amy Carmichael (nonfiction: selections [text in this Guide] from Gold Cord)G. K. Chesterton (nonfiction: Orthodoxy)T. S. Eliot (essay [text on the Internet]: “Tradition and the Individual Talent”)Dorothy L. Sayers (novel: Gaudy Night)All works are by Christian authors; works are a mixture of literature on specifically Christian ideas and literature on more general themes. Lessons cover writing a basic five-paragraph essay; communicating through a variety of forms; imagery, syntax, and word choice in poetry; writing clearly; writing for different purposes; persuasive writing; literary analysis; and choosing subject matter. For example, The Four Loves by C.S. Lewis is used to teach writing the five-paragraph essay, Phantastes by MacDonald for teaching symbolism, and Why Does God Allow War? by D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones for writing clearly.The Student’s Guide includes comprehension questions, writing exercises, discussion questions and project suggestions, additional reading lists, semester and full-year schedules, and bibliography.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
