__**A Separate Peace**__ (ASP) **Resources**

Here is a sample dialectical journal for __A Separate Peace__, written by one of my Pre-AP students. I took off the bibliography as well as the name of the student for whom it belongs. I highlighted instances of the student using literary language to discuss the passages. Please note that the passages were not paraphrased. The student discussed theme, tone, diction, literary devices, syntax, mood, contrast (juxtaposition) and linked to meaning.

Works of literature often depict acts of betrayal. Friends and even family may betray a protagonist; main characters may likewise be guilty of treachery or may betray their own values. In a well-written essay, analyze the nature of the betrayal in __A Separate Peace__ and show how it contributes to the meaning of the work as a whole. Avoid mere plot summary.
