Poetry & Short Stories for the Logic Stage – Teacher Guide (Second Edition)

Product Description

Sample

Perhaps you’ve forgotten the old-world elegance of Irving’s prose or the range of Poe’s romanticism. Or perhaps your poetic sensibilities could be warmed by the Fireside Poets—Longfellow, Whittier, and Holmes. Rediscover the rich and varied authenticity of American literature through Poetry & Short Stories for the Logic Stage!

In the formative years of America at the turn of the nineteenth century, the new nation was painfully aware that it lacked a body of literature that could express the unique, developing American culture. Early American Romanticist Washington Irving was the first to answer this call, soon followed by the beloved Fireside Poets, Edgar Allan Poe with his macabre psychological tales, the unconventional Emily Dickinson, and many others who have since been enshrined in the canon of American literature.

This collection from the first two centuries of American literature gives students a solid foundation in understanding some of the most important and influential poems and short stories from this time period, and the accompanying study guides lead students in analysis and a deep appreciation of each.

Poetry & Short Stories for the Logic Stage is the new edition of Poetry & Short Stories: American Literature.
