Week 5: UK Literature
This post is for my students at the Hunan Institute of Science & Technology ( 湖南理工学院 ) who are taking the course: “The Society and Culture of Major English-Speaking Countries ( 英语国家社会与文化入门 ) : An Introduction (Book One / Second Edition)”
This week’s lesson covered unit 6 from the textbook which covers UK Literature. In this unit we focused not on a long list of British authors and the books they wrote, rather, we focused on the general trends observed in British literature as well as the possible reasons driving those trends.

Attention: This is week there was a disturbing number of students who showed poor judgment and chose to behave unethically during the reading quiz. Don’t waste your time or mine, have respect for yourself and your education and demonstrate that you are capable of success without resorting to cheating!
