Till We Have Faces (Curriculum Unit)

Ten lessons have students explore the life of C. S. Lewis; examine the main characters; learn about rhetoric; analyze Orual’s argument; study the plot’s foundation in myth, the meaning of the title, and various symbols and ironies; and look at the philosophies in Lewis’s nonfiction piece, The Four Loves. Activities involve participating in small- and large-group discussions, questioning, reading, problem solving, researching, critiquing, evaluating, and making presentations. Grades 9-12. (CFL166)
