Language and Literature Resources Pages        Prepared by: Glen Cassidy

On these pages you will find links to my study guides and commentaries on a range of literary texts. Some of these have been set for the NSW Higher School Certificate; others may be useful for Tertiary Preparation students in TAFE studying the Language and Creative Arts or Literature 'B' modules. You'll also find some material on language and communication topics, some uploaded material for the Area of Study in Year 12 English, and some links  to other sites I have found useful.

The study guides and commentaries are my own  work - they are not intended to be scholarly essays and are not referenced  as such. Some of them are detailed commentaries - others more free-ranging suggestions and ideas to provoke your own thinking and  discussion. So you're welcome to consult them - but of course if you make use of them for essays or assessments you must acknowledge their source in  the usual way. Please give me feedback; please also report to me any broken links. And if you have any suggestions for sites I could add I'll be only too happy to post these. So any queries, comments or suggestions to: glenc98@yahoo.com
