PLT

  • PLT

The Prescribed Literature in Translation (PLT) is an official list of literature published by the IB on the Online Curriculum Centre (OCC). For the English A: Language and Literature course, both Standard Level and Higher Level students must read one work from this list to meet part of their Part 3 requirement.

You will notice that the PLT is text specific, meaning that you cannot read anything by an author that appears on this list. You must read the work(s) indicated. 

Furthermore, you may not read a work from the PLT that was originally written in the target language. For example, A Farewell to Arms by Ernst Hemingway cannot be read for the English A: Language and Literature course to meet the PLT requirement, even though it appears on the list. Instead a work in translation must be read. 

Note: As far as the school's free choice is concerned, remember that SL students may not read a work in translation. HL students, on the other hand, may read a work in translation. These do not have to be works taken from the PLT. They may be any work in translation.
