PREFACE

English 4 introduces the students to different literary genres which is vital to comprehension and appreciation of literature. The module exposes students to a substantial collection of poetry. Prose, being lengthy, is typified by essays, fables, short stories, novels, and short plays. The essentials of literature, which are comprehensively treated by Arsenia Tan in her book, strengthen the students’ foundation in understanding literature.
