Course details

Name: ENGL - 300

Title: THE PURSUITS OF ENGLISH

Section: 02

Semester: Spring - 2016

Credits: 4

Description:
An inquiry into what constitutes contemporary literary and film study: its subject matter and its underlying goals and methods. Students study literary and film texts of various genres, as well as literary/film criticism and theory; inquire into the nature of authorship and of texts; examine and expand their ways of reading, interpreting, and writing about texts; trace the relation of literary/film criticism to theory; consider the relation of literary and film study to issues of power; and develop independent habits of thought, research, discussion and analytic writing that are informed by literary theory and criticism. This is a team-taught course (w/Prof. Lykidis). On Tuesdays we meet with both sections until 1:25. Thursdays are just with Prof. Nielsen until 12:45.
