Teaching English Literature 16-19
by Carol Atherton, Andrew Green and Gary Snapper

'This new book represents a major step forward in the teaching of English Literature at 16-19... Principled, persuasive and packed with great teaching ideas... an essential handbook for anyone teaching English in the sixth form today'
Sean McEvoy, Varndean Sixth Form College, Brighton, author of Shakespeare: the Basics (Routledge).
'Written by a ‘dream team’ of people involved in the 16-19 curriculum ... this outstanding book ... will help students develop independent learning, and bridge the gap between secondary education and university study.'
Robert Eaglestone, Professor of Literature and Contemporary Thought, Royal Holloway Univresity of London. author of Doing English (Routledge).
It has been 24 years since the last guide to teaching literature in the sixth form (Brown and Gifford: Teaching A Level Literature: A Student-Centred Approach, 1989) was published. This book is intended to fill that gap and to build on the influential ideas contained in Brown and Gifford's 1989 book. With chapters on teaching poetry, the novel, drama, theory, context and writing, the book attempts to provide a comprehensive vision for the teaching of advanced English literature in schools and colleges in the 21st century.
