They other key concepts we have spent time learning in AP Lit have been general facts and ideas meant to expand our knowledge of literature in general. For instance we spent a significant amount of time reviewing literary terms, which allow us to acknowledge more literary devices, as well as being able to articulate responses to them. Other topics we have spent time learning include discussions of Theatre of the Absurd and the various definitions of a Tragedy (in relation to The American Dream and Death of a Salesman respectively). These discussions allow for more complete analysis of the works we read in class, but also expand our knowledge base for all of literature.
"They other key concepts"? You may want to proof read this before posting. After reading all of your other key concept summaries, I realized that you did not include much about the books that we have read in class and how they will help us on the exam (maybe you feel that they won't?) I agree that this topics, especially the new vocabulary will help on the exam.
