Literature

General

  • Another massive site: teacher's use in gathering background information, probably, initially, although you'll use it to find sites for your children to read.  If they want to read the originals, here they are!
  • FreeBooknotes.com presents Cliff's Notes-like help for many works.
  • Several books assigned, and some not assigned but interesting to Rhetoric level students (like works of Voltaire and Darwin) are found here.
  • You won't believe this site. You can look up any word, you can even make your own glossary. You type in a list of vocabulary words, decide what you would like included and push send. You then get a professional paged glossary of all your words. AND IT IS FREE! (You do have to register first.) Contributed by Dody.
  • Norton online quizzes - Western Literature
