[Reference Pages](https://www.douglaswise.co.uk/hubfs/GCSE%20English%20Literature%20Reference%20Pages%20(1).docx)

Click on the button above to download reference pages for the GCSE English Literature texts listed below:

- Macbeth
- A Christmas Carol
- An Inspector Calls
- Romeo and Juliet

Each page contains key knowledge in four areas:

1. **Big Ideas**
2. **Language and Style**
3. **Context**
4. **Vocabulary**

The idea is for the resource to be a point of reference and the basis for discussion as students study the texts.

Hope they’re helpful –
