EL 3510 - Literature Across Cultures II: Theory

Credits: 4
This course encourages diverse responses to important works of British-U.S. and World Literature. It fosters the skills of close reading and develops the confidence necessary for independent interpretation of literary texts. While studying each text, students read critical articles about them reflecting the approaches of “new criticism,” biographical and psychoanalytic criticism, new historicism, feminism, queer theory, and other current methodologies. Small group discussions of study questions, oral reports, and writing assignments encourage students to read the texts specifically and respond to them independently.
