Synopsis

This is part of a course of language and literature study at Key Stage 4. The course covers language work and literary and non-literary texts including contemporary and pre-20th century poetry, literature, drama and media. In addition to a course book, there are seven self-contained literature study books, each leading the student through the close study of a major or set text, or prescribed period of poetry within its historical, social and cultural context. This volume introduces Victorian poetry to GCSE students. It explores ways of approaching, reading and responding to pre-20th century poetry and helps students to develop an understanding of writers' techniques, concentrating in particular on the work of Tennyson, Rossetti and Hardy. Structured speaking, listening, reading and writing activities help prepare students for examination work, as well as generating written course work and providing opportunities for oral assessment. National Curriculum requirements for the study of pre-20th century poetry are covered, with research into the historical, social and cultural context of Victorian writing.

Revue de presse

...they are beautifully produced: sturdily made, finely printed and illustrated, with clear, inviting and highly practical layout. There is an editorial team behind them with a track record known to many teachers, inspiring confidence and producing consistency. There is care not just for the integrity of the text being studied, but for the methodology used. Pupils respond to the texts with reading, writing, speaking and listening: the indivisibility of English as a subject is never lost sight of. But what makes the books most rworth having is the understanding of the texts themselves: not only in their historical and social contexts, but also as aesthetic objects obeying laws and structures of their own. I recommend them strongly. (Times Educational Supplement)
