Exploring Literature

Reading is one of the most important skills we can ever develop. When we love to read, the whole world opens up to us. Through literature, we can read fact or fiction, truth or myth, fables or legends, adventure or mystery; we can learn new things or rediscover forgotten ones, gain new skills and hone the ones we already have, hope and dream while striving toward our heavenly goal. In this course, you will be doing a little of all those things as you read the selections chosen to take you around the world. You will be reading the works of authors such as Leo Tolstoy, O Henry, Longfellow, and a great many others. You will read and examine short stories, novels, poems, histories, adventures, dramas, legends, even comedy. By the end of this course, you will be able to recognize and understand the roles of characters, conflict, setting, and point of view in a wide variety of literature and how they work together to make a great read. You will also learn a few details of some of the authors as well as the genres or types of literature you read which will give you a very solid base on which to expand your literary adventures in years to come.
