What made classic authors so special? What was it about their technique, prowess, and general talent which has drawn readers to their work for years and has caused countless writers since to study and mimic their creations? This class will allow students to explore classic authors such as Tolkien, London, Frost, Shelley, and Lewis. We will delve into classical pieces studying the nuances of language, deeper meaning, complexity, and philosophical connections. Students will also have a chance to emulate the work of these pieces within their own writing!

Prereq’s: Students should be reading above their current grade level, should feel comfortable with mature and analytical instruction, and be a risk taker in their writing!
