Analyzing and Interpreting Literature / Unit 19   AIL 1863 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Why Tradition Comes Last

Captions available

The idea

Because a tradition band collects writers already met in period units. Yeats and Joyce belong to the Irish strand, Equiano and McKay to another, Dante and Ibsen to translation. Taking traditions last means the writers are familiar before the grouping is explained.

In practice

The writers come before the grouping.

Where people slip

The same order as the craft units.
