Juniors...Colonial Lit Quiz Tuesday!

Juniors...here is a brief reminder of what will be on Tuesday's quiz.

  • Background of Colonial and Puritan literature (you have notes on this from the textbook)
  • Native American lit: "The World on the Turtle's Back"
  • Exploration literature: De Vaca and John Smith (remember the importance of point-of-view!)
  • Puritan literature: Anne Bradstreeet and Jonathan Edwards (be able to tell me the characteristics of Puritan literature as seen in the selections)
Know the following literary terms, which we discussed in class...

paradox, hyperbole, point-of-view, emotional appeals, purpose, audience
