Whether two words ("Jesus wept.") or 1,287 words (a sentence in William Faulkner's Absalom! Absalom!), sentences have the power to captivate, entertain, motivate, educate, and, most importantly, delight. Understanding the variety of ways to construct sentences, from the smallest clause to the longest sentence, is important to enhancing your appreciation of great writing and potentially improving your own. This course applies the sentence-oriented approach to studying writing and provides a larger context for what makes sentences great. Students investigate how to recognize the mechanics of sentences, how language works on thoughts and emotions, and learn basic strategies to sharpen their ability to recognize great sentences and make their own writing more effective. 000427933 538__ $$aDVD. 000427933 650_0 $$aComposition (Language arts) 000427933 650_0 $$aEnglish language$$xComposition and exercises. 000427933 650_0 $$aEnglish language$$xWriting. 000427933 650_0 $$aEnglish language$$xRhetoric. 000427933 650_0 $$aEssays$$xWriting. 000427933 655_0 $$aFilmed lectures. 000427933 7102_ $$aTeaching Company. 000427933 830_0 $$aGreat courses (DVD) 000427933 85201 $$bdvd$$hPE1441$$i.L363$$i2008 000427933 86731 $$aSuppl. 000427933 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:427933$$pGLOBAL_SET 000427933 980__ $$aBIB 000427933 980__ $$aDVD
