Brit Lit Vol. 7: Comic Theater

Each volume of Logos Press's Brit Lit volumes gives you both the unabridged primary sources and the complete reference tools that teachers and students would need during a year-long British Literature class. No more flipping back and forth between reference books and dog-eared thrift editions: For the first time, the classroom helps and the classics themselves are interwoven for classical & Christian schools. Selected and edited by Rebekah Merkle, a veteran teacher at Logos School in Moscow, ID.

Each volume includes daily reading schedules; engaging comprehension questions for every day's reading with detailed answers; introductory essays highlighting themes and offering a Christian perspective; page-by-page, on-the-spot marginalia offering explanations, context, and important notes; memorization for 200 lines of poetry over the year; 90 integrative assignments and supplementary poems in the Poetry Workbook; comprehensive end-of-volume tests over readings and the Poetry Workbook.

This volume includes Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest and Gilbert & Sullivan's Pirates of Penzance, and assigns passages from Rudyard Kipling, Lewis Carroll. Volume X: Poetry Workbook includes these passages and covers how to coin words and write a nonsense poem.
