Overview

In this class, you will be responsible for presenting information on one literary period we will be studying. You will be working with a small group to research one of these four literary periods:

• The Age of Enlightenment (late 1600s – late 1700s) - 10/19 - 10/23
• The Romantic Period (late 1700s – mid 1800s) - 10/26 - 10/29
• The Victorian Era (1837 – 1901) - 11/2 - 11/6
• The Modern Period (Modernism) (1870s – 1950s) - 11/30 - 12/4

Your presentation will be one class period. You will teach us about the period both verbally and in an annotated timeline, and you will have some sort of activity for us to do (not necessarily in that order).
