Took him freshman year '80. I did well in his class. Cool that he is still teaching at Elon. I liked his class.

Comment:
Professor Blake is a very unorganized professor. He lost all of my papers and tried to say I never completed the work. I had a straight A in his class and had to go to the Dean of the English department to complain and receive my rightful grade. I would not recommend him to anyone, unless you like professors who lose your work. :(

The class is generally easy. It's ok to miss class a few times and even when you're in class, it's a common tendency to doze off. Papers aren't bad- he gives you a grade with a few marks on the paper and then gives you a chance to correct your paper for full credit. Good grades, nice guy, so I suggest him if you don't mind a few boring classes

If you actually enjoy Shakespeare, take professor Blake. He is passionate and has a dry sense of humor that you won't get unless you're listening.

If you take this class make sure and do well on the first test because that will be your grade for the semester. Prof. Blake is a nice man, boring, and doesn't grade well, but nontheless nice.

Comment:
Tests are relatively easy essays. You should really only have to skim the readings before classes and sort of pay attention to do well. He has a conservative christian view but it isn't worth making an issue of it. Perfect class to take for non-english majors looking to fill a requirement.

It is necessary to pound caffeine before this class (red bull, coffee, your choice). Otherwise you will fall asleep.

Comment:
lectures. all test/quizzes are on vocabulary. he's a conservative, so prepare to stand by your opinion if you're liberal. put together a montage about hamlet that he'll talk about endlessly. don't take his class in the morning, will bore you to death.

Comment:
He's a decent teacher but if you're work is not in exactly on time he will hate you the rest of the semester. He's not at all flexible or understanding, and on top of that he's extremely boring. If you want an intersting class, or if you are a procrastinator, do not take Blake!

Comment:
I love British Literature, buthe made it terrible. It's an easy class, but listening to him was not worth it. He thinks he knows everything, but he's really not that smart. He just stands up there and tells you simply what the text says and is not very open to discussion or opinion. If you're looking for an easy useless class, go for it.

Comment:
Despite all the comments of praise, Dr Blake sucks. He expresses his views and if you disagree you are wrong. He makes you write trivial papers that he grades only on grammar, he doesnt even take the time to read it. Other than him being boring and not teaching the class is fine, but those 2 things make it a miserable class. Do not take him!!!

Certainly not the most interesting, but you gotta love having a teacher who loves what he's teaching SO much. His own passion for the materical more than encouraged me in this class.

dr. blake was a fair guy who expects you to learn the material he provides- if you learn the vocab words and write according to his directions you will score no less than a (b) in his class-definitely recommend-

Really boring professor, but you can tell he's passionate about teaching. His class is relatively easy.. vocabulary tests and assigned papers on ethical issues. He gives back your papers and gives you a chance to correct them for a better grade. How great is that? Highly recommended!

I graduated in 1979! I am so happy to see the good Dr. is still passing on his knowledge to Elon students. I still value what I learned from him. Now that I teach British lit. to seniors in high school, I get to pass on that love of British lit to others. You are awesome, Br. Blake!
