Please note: The official College Board® Course Description is available below in "More."
A Focus on Rhetoric
Reading and Writing from a Different Perspective
Those of us used to teaching literature need to adjust our perspective and revise our teaching techniques when we take on the AP English Language course. We need to refocus our materials from the imagined worlds of literature to the real world of non-fiction. When we talk about familiar techniques of diction, syntax, imagery, and tone, we need to help students see how persuasive writers marshal these devises to the service of argument. When we talk about audience, we need to get students thinking about particular audiences and specific contexts for writing, rather than presuming a general audience as we usually do for literature.
The works chosen for the questions on the essay section of the examination help us see the difference between the two courses. With few exceptions, the sample passages printed in the 2003-2004 AP English Course Description come from non-fiction: a speech by Queen Elizabeth I, a selection from Frederick Douglass's autobiography, correspondence between staff at the Coca-Cola company and Grove Press, an encyclopedia entry on the Okefenokee Swamp, and essays by Kincaid and Postman. Although the open-ended question model is based on an excerpt from Antigone

Narrative Non-Fiction Illustration
McCauley, David
December/January 2001/02
Making an illustration, whether fiction or non-fiction, is something like assembling a jigsaw puzzle. In both cases lots of different pieces must be fitted together in order to create a finished picture. With a jigsaw puzzle the picture is predetermined. It might even be printed on the box to serve as a guide. What governs the assembly of an illustration, on the other hand, is the idea or concept behind it. Since this concept is often fairly ambiguous when the process begins, the illustrator must not only select the pieces of the puzzle they will use, but give them shape.
Perhaps one of the reason I particularly enjoy illustrating non-fiction, is that at least some of the pieces of the puzzle do have clearly defined edges. There is, after all, certain factual information which must be communicated. Those of us, who like the narrative non-fiction illustrator, walk the line between fiction and non-fiction, often using the former to help present the
latter, must remain responsible to and respectful of that information even as we search for ways of making it visually compelling and intellectually engaging. And herein lies the challenge.

Composition of the online corpus We are offering a general corpus sampler, which is to say one that in its thematic and stylistic composition reflects the average user's daily contact with the Polish language.
In preparing the material for the Web corpus, we randomly selected fragments of books and magazines from various fields consisting of around 6,000 words each, having first decided on the thematic range. Extracts from poetry collections and the daily press are about 3,000 words long, and those from spoken texts - around 1,500 words (brief news items, poems and conversations are on the whole shorter than the average book chapter, which is the shortest full text on a given topic).
Out of 1,817,058 text words (strings of letters from one space to the next), in the sample corpus there are 167,674 different words (strings). The list of the most frequent words in the sample corpus agrees with the frequency list for the average non-specialist Polish text (cf.
