Description
(LI) Literary Inquiry (AI-L) Aesthetic Inquiry Lit (DM) Diversity & Multiculturalism
This course is a survey of Nineteenth-, Twentieth-, and Twenty-First Century English Literature. Students will read a broad range of canonical and non-canonical texts that support and challenge dominant cultural values emerging during a period of rapid technological and ideological change. England's imperial vision provides an important context for the literature in this class. There is a purposeful intersection between canonical authors and traditionally underrepresented English authors who create a space for critical reflection and global perspectives.
