General  English and Literature Sources

John Lye's course and source page serves primarily as a portal to Lye's sites for the courses that he teaches, although it also includes an exceptionally broad and helpfully organized collection of links to literary resources throughout the Internet. One site for an introductory literature course includes Lye's guide to literary analysis, which provides concise, straightforward outlines of the basic formal and social features of poetry and fiction -- elements such as imagery, character, and ideology -- and links to definitions of terms as they occur in main text of the site. Truly interesting and unique are the many information remarks and questions Lye posts on his course pages, particularly the "handouts" for modern fiction. Useful, well conceived, and well presented digest of main points and questions for consideration about more specific topics such as the "death of the author" and post colonial theory, these are pedagogic treasures.   --edited excerpt from a review by R.J.
