The EZ-101 series gives an overview of typical college-level general education courses (material presented in high school coursesl), outlining the major study keys.
The book contains classroom-style notes that emphasize important facts from English literature, major authors, and key terms needed for tests and papers, or for a broad-based understanding of literature.
Topics outlined include: Old English language and poetry; Beowulf; Middle English masters such as Chaucer and Malory; Renaissance authors such as Shakespeare, Bacon, Donne and Milton; Restoration and the 18th Century writers such as Dryden and Pope; the Romantic poets and novelists; the Victorians, and the Moderns such as Shaw, Joyce, and Beckett. While this is not a full-fledged textbook, it can be used to supplement a literature course that is based on reading whole books rather than an anthology course. If you are using a structured lit program, this book can serve as a good study tool to ensure understanding of key terms and authors.
