I think I need to read this thread so that I can help my DS in Literature. Sigh. But at least I have kind parents who share information here.

Super Alice,


Here Are some links to the study guide. There is also a workbook with exercises.

I suggest you print these out before the link becomes inaccessible.

Most of the books are modern, so you can’t find them on the Internet legitimately. I would suggest that you go to any Popular bookstore, find a guide about the book, and buy that, so long as you are rich. Alternatively, go to Cliffsnotes or Sparknotes online and you will be able to find a gamut of guides.


Anyway, the point of studying of Literature is not as easy as it deemed is. Literature needs, first and foremost, the appreciation and strong liking to linguistics and philosophy, because everything you study has a deeper meaning which most people could only understand superficially.

But not me. So can you.
