Literature & The Lost Tools of Writing is a class where students learn the art of persuasive writing about issues in selected literature. Students cultivate wisdom and virtue for each essay that they write as they work through three stages: invention, arrangement, and elocution. With each assignment, more tools will be added to create lengthier, well-ordered, and stylish essays. As they read each book, students will also maintain a literary response journal and learn literary techniques authors use in their works to create characters, to create mood, and to emphasize themes.

Thursdays 1:00 p.m. - 2:30 p.m. PST (online) 

September 10 - May 27
