It is not usually news, when another old cave is discovered in the South of France. Rather, it is an ordinary event. Such discov

eries are so frequent these days that hardly anybody pays heed to them. However, when the Lascaux cave complex was discovered in 1940, the world was amazed. Painted directly on its walls were hundreds of scenes showing how people lived thousands of years ago. The scenes show people hunting animals, such as bison or wild cats. Other images depict birds and, most noticeably,horses, which appear in more than 300 wall images, by far outnumbering all other animals. Early artists drawing these animals accomplished a monumental and difficult task. They did not limit themselves to the easily accessible walls but carried their painting materials to spaces that required climbing steep walls or crawling into narrow passages in the Lascaux complex. Unfortunately, the paintings have been exposed to the destructive action of water and temperature changes, which easily wear the images away. Because the Lascaux caves have many entrances, air movement has also damaged the images inside. Although they are not out in the open air, where natural light would have destroyed them long ago, many of the images have deteriorated and are barely recognizable. To prevent further damage, the site was closed to tourists in 1963, 23 years after it was discovered.
1. Why is discovering a cave considered an ordinary event?

English IV

Students have repeatedly peered through the window to humanity that literature has opened for them.

Through it, they have gained valuable perspective on their world, past and present. Close-textual interaction with literature should have heightened appreciation for those texts, improved critical and analytical skills in reading and writing, enhanced speaking and listening abilities, and enriched students' academic and personal vocabulary. This course is organized chronologically, so students can see the influences on and evolution of the ideas and forms. Writing, research, and speaking assignments will continue to focus on formulating and expressing ideas and arguments about the readings. Particular emphasis is placed on gaining critical perspective on the relationship between content and form and on synthesizing ideas into clear and concise prose and presentations.

Goals for this course include:

  • Refining reading skills: summary, annotation, analysis, evaluation, and interpretation
  • Identifying explicit and implicit meaning in European literature and philosophy
  • Analyzing a text from multiple perspectives (historical, literary, psychological, religious, philosophical)
  • Comparing and contrasting the treatment of a similar theme or topic in two or more works
  • Analyzing literary elements: narrative/poetic/dramatic structure, point of view, theme, allegory, satire, character
