The Guardian's series on the great Romantic poets with poems, excerpts from their letters, discussions, and podcasts.

A classic painting from English Romantic artist that has been used for many book covers. Most recently encountered on cover and as guiding metaphor in Gaddis's "The Landscape of History" (very interesting book). Plan to use this first day of class to generate discussion in AP Lit about painting, literature, art, and their lives.

just finished this with AP juniors and Honors Brit Lit Students: great project for poetry reading skills. they wrote an in class explication about their sonnet after. will memorize and recite their sonnet as well next year.  They rocked it! we are ready for the Romantics now.
