Category Description for Abeka Literature - Grade 9 (5th Edition)
Themes in Literature reflects these twelve themes: truth and wisdom; courage; the power of words; humility; beauty; love; justice; temperance; joy and peace; perseverance; faith and hope; and time and eternity. As the student becomes familiar with classics such as The Wind in the Willows, The Three Musketeers, Don Quixote, and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, he or she learns to appreciate a well-written presentation of a theme. This appreciation not only aids in increased enjoyment of literature but also provides the foundation needed to critically analyze it. This then can serve as a stimulus for corresponding creative essays.
This brand-new edition includes features that previously only appeared in the teacher's edition. Your students will now see author information, story introductions, literary concepts, and “Write About It” prompts that will expand their thinking skills and lend excitement with each story. The improved critical thinking exercises provided in this new edition will encourage your students to analyze each theme.
There are 94 different authors with 57 prose selections, 49 poems, and 5 plays. Some selections included have been slightly edited to ensure that the work is appropriate for a Christian young person. Usually only a word or phrase had to be changed or omitted.
There are 170 lessons.
