1 8.1 The Speckled Band

In this lesson, we will explore Arthur Conan Doyle's renowned short story, "The Speckled Band." We will delve briefly into the short story genre before analysing the plot, characters, and literary devices employed by Conan Doyle to keep us on the edge of our seats in this masterful Sherlock Holmes adventure.


2 8.2 Lamb to the Slaughter

In this lesson, we delve into the short story "Lamb to the Slaughter", a dark and captivating tale from the mind of Roald Dahl. We will explore the elements that make short stories engaging and thought-provoking, examining how Dahl masterfully crafts suspense and surprise. Together, we will analyse the plot, characters, and literary techniques employed by Dahl to unravel the layers of this suspenseful tale.


3 8.3 The Kraken

In this lesson, we descend to the murky depths to explore Tennyson's use of evocative language and imagery to create suspense and mystery in his poem, "The Kraken." We will unravel the poetic devices, themes, and historical context that make "The Kraken" a timeless piece of literature.


4 9.1 The Power of the Poets

This unit explores how poets use language to shape meaning and convey a sense of power through their words. A poem is like a sculpture; a thing sculpted and shaped, and from a mass of words is hewn a thing of beauty. From poems that set hearts afire, to the poems which soothe the fractured soul; a poet's words have power over us.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
