description About

In 12 episodes, John Green is back to talk about books. That’s right, more Crash Course Literature! The analyses and books chosen in this course are based on introductory college-level curriculum and the AP Literature guidelines. By the end of this course, you will be able to: *Use characters and setting to explore a range of values, beliefs, assumptions, biases, and cultural norms *Discuss the role of the narrator and how their perspective affects how readers experience and interpret a text *Recognize comparisons, representations, and associations that invite readers to interpret a text *Explain the function of significant events in a plot, as well as the contributions of structure, sequence, contrast, and conflict *Employ different lenses and focal points to read a text multiple ways and recognize the glorious ambiguity of literature *Question the notion of genre and place, in particular dystopias, and their impact on free will and politics
