Writing Themes About Literature is based on tested classroom experience. It guides today's students in writing assignments with a flexible system that promotes creativity and competence, while implanting a lifelong understanding and appreciation of literature. Each chapter covers a separate literary problem in composition. The book is arranged in order of increasing difficulty and technicality. Its practical help with homework promotes skills and improves abilities in composition. Since the first edition in 1964, the book has proven an invaluable aid for mastering the writing of all types of themes about a literary work. [From the back cover]
