A.P. English Literature & Composition is a college level course designed by the College Board and offered at the high school level in accordance with College Board requirements described in the AP English Course Description. It is designed to prepare students to successfully complete the A.P. English examination and receive college level credit at participating colleges and universities.
As a study of literature, the A.P. English Literature and Composition course is designed to engage students in the careful reading and critical analysis of imaginative works. Through the close reading of selected texts, students will deepen their understanding of the ways writers use language to provide both meaning and pleasure for their readers. As they read, students will consider a work’s diction, structure, style, and themes, as well as literary devices such as the use of figurative language, imagery, symbolism, and tone. The course begins with an intensive study of how to effectively analyze fiction through a deeper understanding of the literary tools authors use.
