Englands epok litteratur

Hej!

Jag ska ha seminarium i engelska 6 där vi disskuterar de olika epokerna i engelsk litteratur, där det här är vad som ingår:

In the seminars, I will ask questions about the following:

Old English

Beowulf

Middle English

Chaucer-Nightmare Beast of the Firebrand Tail

Dante-Divina Comedia

The Early Renaissance

The Renaissance and the Reformation

Shakespeare-Sonett

Shakespeare-Romeo and Juliet

The Age of Reason

Swift-A Modest Proposal

The Romantic Age

Poe-The Raven

The Victorian Age

Wilde-The Picture of Dorian Gray

Modernism

Hemingway-Hills Like White Elephants

Postmodernism

What is typical for the postmodern era, according to you?

• Make sure you can talk about what characterizes the different eras in terms of ideas in society, interests, and so on. Start from the beginning and go all the way up to postmodernism. Try and compare and contrast the different eras.
• Make sure you can talk about the different authors and their works. What did they write about and why?
• Make sure you can answer all the questions about all the text extracts that we have covered from the different eras. 
• Make sure your literature overview is finished for the seminar. 

Min fråga är dock vart jag hittar information om detta, min lärare har bara delat ut ett häfte med svår information om detta.
