Last honors blog

How has your thinking changed regarding American history or literature?


by doing honors in literature i learned what made literature literature, and how it is different from fiction.I new that there were great differences between literature and fiction but i was not sure what they exactly were. But through reading classic literature, and discussing the books with Randy and my litgroup-i learned that in literature the plot is driven by the characters, and fiction is driven by the plot. I though that this was really interesting because, i had always wondered why books that had fantasy and science fictions themes were not considered great writing. It makes perfect sense to me now.
