Masters in Pieces

By Michael Parker and Fiona Morrison

Masters in Pieces introduces students to the ideas and people surrounding a selection of the most significant English literature of the past thousand years. Taking a contemporary critical literacy approach to major literary works, students completing units in this text will be prepared for their senior years and beyond. Masters in Pieces encourages students to think about literary texts critically, in relation to popular culture while also discussing the existence and formation of the English literary canon. The textbook has been created for students to respond to the texts in a variety of ways, from essay-writing and role-plays to creative writing and mock trials. A multilevel approach to key language and literacy skills caters to the different learning abilities in the classroom and assists teachers in matching tasks to the skill of their students.
