Students will work with literary and cultural texts to strengthen their reading and analytic abilities, using those skills to construct sophisticated arguments. Because the course is designed for English majors, students will learn and apply the vocabulary, writing conventions, research methods, and documentation practices of the discipline. Students will write 5000-6000 words of formal prose and regularly revise their essays with feedback from peers and the instructor. ENWR220 meets the Graduation Writing Requirement. Recommended but not required as a precursor to Pursuits of English. For English majors only.
