This document outlines an honors 10th grade yearlong project on the impact of literature on history and the impact of history on literature. Students will pick a human condition theme such as justice, war, poverty, or technology. They will read three pieces of literature from different time periods studied and write reports summarizing each work and connecting it to the chosen human condition theme and its historical time period. In the culminating project, students will combine this information into a panel presentation at the end of the school year.
