Description:
Brideshead Revisited is often cited as Evelyn Waugh’s masterpiece. Young university students facing chaotic changes in the time between the wars in England come to see the necessity of faith in order to live a meaningful life. Primacy of friendship and love leads to questions of a higher purpose to life than hedonism, materialism, or selfishness.



Activities:

In this curriculum unit, students critique a literary text, plot, and characterization. They evaluate literary prose style and research artistic movements. Students participate in panels and debates about the idea of elitism. They question the differences between British and American university studies. Several opportunities for creative and formal writing are presented to students throughout the course of study.

Supplementary materials feature writing topics and tests with answer keys.
