Texts and Contexts: Writing About Literature with Critical Theory (3rd Edition)

Rating:
Summary: A great introductory text for AP English
Review: I use this book to introduce literary theory to my AP high school seniors. The explanations of the theories are accessible, the sample essays provide great models, and the suggested strategies for critical writing effectively allow my students to engage with both work and theory. Impressive... AND the author maintains a sense of humor which adds to the readability. Wow!
