| Synopsis: |
Texts in their Times contains fresh and imaginative ideas for understanding texts in context. Short texts and extracts from the Victorian period and the early twentieth century are used to introduce students to the way in which literary texts relate to the times in which they were written. Using art, architecture and music, students are supported to think about influences beyond the purely historical. Close reading activities remain central. The texts and activities can be used as one-off lessons, or as a more sustained sequence. * Classroom materials ideal for teaching the context of any Victorian or any Modernist text, as well as to support responses to unseen texts and synoptic assessment. * Activities on a wide range of writers including: Tennyson, Dickens, George Eliot, T.S. Eliot, Woolf, Joyce, Yeats and Lawrence. * Teachers' notes provide practical guidance and background material, including indications of points that might be raised in classroom discussion. * CD ROM contains a slide show of paintings and architecture from the two periods as well as short extracts from works by Mendelssohn and Stravinsky. |
