How do definitions of it differ over time and across cultures? How does literature play a role in the ways people see themselves and others?

- Class Description:
How does personal experience shape the writing - and reading - of literature? How can literature change how we see ourselves, each other, and the world? This summer, CSCL1401 is organized around autobiographical writing across genres (poetry, memoir, fiction, and criticism) with readings by such contemporary writers as John Ashbery, Teju Cole, Maggie Nelson, and Ocean Vuong, as well as selections from Saint Augustine, Frederick Douglass, Marcel Proust, and more. We'll consider the power of autobiographical writing to document experience and challenge oppression. We'll also ask what the evolution of different media has meant for literature: what's the difference between a memoir written on paper and poem that appears on Instagram? What does personal narrative mean in the age of social media? Through close readings and creative approaches to critical writing, we'll answer these questions, ask new ones, and cultivate skills for thinking across a range of disciplines.
This course fulfills LITR WI requirements.

- Class Description:
How do we read literature? What is literature? And what is reading? This class will attempt to explore those questions through an unusual approach: by focusing on literary adaptation. By looking at the edge of the literary, we will try to identify what is unique to the literary mode, whether literature can truly be adapted, and what is at stake in that process. Does an adapted literary work cease to be literature? Does it cease to be art? What happens to a book when it is turned into a movie? Can its literary essence be translated? Through this exploration we will attempt to highlight the essential quality that we might call "the literary." By focusing on the border between the literary and the cinematic, this class will emphasize the unique qualities of literature and, through transposition and comparison, it will give us a richer understanding of literature itself.
To foreground the questions of literary essence, of the centrality of words and the self-reflexive aspect of literature, this class is organized around unusual adaptations. We will focus on literature that presents challenges to its readers, books that are modernist, obtuse, formalist, or otherwise weird. These books force readers into an unusual relationship with the text - they promise a personal revelation to anyone willing to open their mind to a transformative experience but they also present serious challenges to seamless adaptation or straightforward interpretation. By exploring particularly "unadaptable" literature, this course hopes to highlight the literary quality, making us conscious of our presence as readers. We will read novels and poems, literary criticism and theory; we will watch films, and we will even try our hand at an adaptation of our own. We will leave this semester with a deeper understanding of literature, adaptation, modernism, and the social and political stakes of literary adaptation, an increasingly relevant issue in our age of comic book and intellectual property-driven mass culture.

- Class Description:
- CSCL 1401W Reading Literature: Theory and Practice 3 credits, meets Lib Ed req of Literature Core; meets Lib Ed req of Writing Intensive.Description: Understanding the Theme of Struggle in LiteratureIf literature is the mimetic representation of life, that is a literary imitation of the world we live in, as thinkers of antiquity would posit, it naturally follows then that the mimesis would never be a smooth one. For human lives are an incessant series of turmoil and struggles, both abstract as well as materialist, and constituted by human efforts to fathom, pacify and make peace with those moments of anxiety and consternation. This course is designed with the intention of interpreting literary works which particularly focus on the theme of struggle. The term
‘struggle' is either generally imbued with a political connotation or comes in handy in conjuring the possibility of a radically changed future. Thus, we will explore together how can literature be read as a site of human struggle. This course will encourage students to infer traces of inherent tension or concealed possibilities of reconciliation from the assigned texts. To that effect, this course can be treated as a springboard to mark struggle as something operating in various strata of modern society -
that of class, caste; of literary genres, i.e. novels, poems, dystopian fiction; and finally on a subliminal level - language, binary identities, experiences of marginality etc. - Who Should Take This Class?:
- This is a beginner level course on Literature and Comparative Literature, Cultural Studies etc.
- Learning Objectives:
- 1) to think critically as to how the world of literature explicates, subsumes (or does both) the idea of struggle within itself. We will also deal with some other pertinent issues such as how can literature facilitate a better understanding of human struggle, with each of its sub-genre treating the topic in a unique and different manner.
2) 2) to engage in a close-reading of texts, with the scaffolding provided by theoretical/critical tools such as Marxist criticism, Feminist and Queer studies, Subaltern theory etc. in order to fathom the extent to which struggle operates as a disruptive force in static conditions.

- Class Description:
How does personal experience shape the writing - and reading - of literature? How can literature change how we see ourselves, each other, and the world? This summer, CSCL1401 is organized around autobiographical writing across genres (poetry, memoir, fiction, and criticism) with readings by such contemporary writers as John Ashbery, Teju Cole, Maggie Nelson, and Ocean Vuong, as well as selections from Saint Augustine, Frederick Douglass, Marcel Proust, and more. We'll consider the power of autobiographical writing to document experience and challenge oppression. We'll also ask what the evolution of different media has meant for literature: what's the difference between a memoir written on paper and poem that appears on Instagram? What does personal narrative mean in the age of social media? Through close readings and creative approaches to critical writing, we'll answer these questions, ask new ones, and cultivate skills for thinking across a range of disciplines.
This course fulfills LITR WI requirements.

- Class Description:
- CSCL 1401W Reading Literature: Theory and Practice 3 credits, meets Lib Ed req of Literature Core; meets Lib Ed req of Writing Intensive.Description: Understanding the Theme of Struggle in LiteratureIf literature is the mimetic representation of life, that is a literary imitation of the world we live in, as thinkers of antiquity would posit, it naturally follows then that the mimesis would never be a smooth one. For human lives are an incessant series of turmoil and struggles, both abstract as well as materialist, and constituted by human efforts to fathom, pacify and make peace with those moments of anxiety and consternation. This course is designed with the intention of interpreting literary works which particularly focus on the theme of struggle. The term
‘struggle' is either generally imbued with a political connotation or comes in handy in conjuring the possibility of a radically changed future. Thus, we will explore together how can literature be read as a site of human struggle. This course will encourage students to infer traces of inherent tension or concealed possibilities of reconciliation from the assigned texts. To that effect, this course can be treated as a springboard to mark struggle as something operating in various strata of modern society -
that of class, caste; of literary genres, i.e. novels, poems, dystopian fiction; and finally on a subliminal level - language, binary identities, experiences of marginality etc. - Who Should Take This Class?:
- This is a beginner level course on Literature and Comparative Literature, Cultural Studies etc.
- Learning Objectives:
- 1) to think critically as to how the world of literature explicates, subsumes (or does both) the idea of struggle within itself. We will also deal with some other pertinent issues such as how can literature facilitate a better understanding of human struggle, with each of its sub-genre treating the topic in a unique and different manner.
2) 2) to engage in a close-reading of texts, with the scaffolding provided by theoretical/critical tools such as Marxist criticism, Feminist and Queer studies, Subaltern theory etc. in order to fathom the extent to which struggle operates as a disruptive force in static conditions.

- Class Description:
This course will serve as an "introduction," "primer," or otherwise "crash course" in the study of literature (along with the varied forms of its reception and criticism). This course's "goal" is thus to instill confidence in speaking broadly about literary studies. To learn about literature "in comparison" will challenge many of the assumptions and attachments that have underpinned your experiences prior to this point. World literature - a deceptively simple term - serves as the binding subtitle to this course. Together, we will explore the thematic, formal, and rhetorical methods used throughout a curated selection of literature with an eye to the ways in which literature both traditionally reflects the socio-economic conditions of its producers, and why the study of such a "thing" as literature might be authorized. For my part, I suggest that a universal and collective vision of humanity is apparent in all literary expressions, and its study grants us the rare opportunity to immerse ourselves fully in the past.- Textbooks:

How do definitions of it differ over time and across cultures? How does literature play a role in the ways people see themselves and others?

In 1949, the social philosopher Theodor Adorno proclaimed that "the forms of art register the history of humanity with greater justice than historical documents." In a political era that thrives off of the documentary exposure of truth, from whistleblowing and fact-checking to iPhone videos of police brutality, such an insight has become incomprehensible to us. What could artistic form possibly know about the history of human suffering?
This course uses the bold claim that form allows us to understand something about humanity as an occasion for a unique critical engagement with literature. With the help of sociological and philosophical theories of modern life and consciousness, as well as several foundational texts of modern literary theory, we will practice methods of reading literature in a variety of formal media (essays, short stories, poetry) with the aim of understanding how literary form can function as a medium with which to reflect on a number of questions that haunt contemporary social reality: the difficulty of obtaining objective truth in the face of media of manipulation; the lifelessness of experience in a totally rationalized world; new forms of political apathy that arise under neoliberal capitalist production; and the commodification of communication on social media. Students will emerge from the course with an enriched understanding of the complexities modern life as well as a keen eye for observing the way in which these complexities are reflected and challenged through literary form.

- Class Description:
- CSCL 1401W Reading Literature: Theory and Practice 4 credits, meets Lib Ed req of Literature Core; meets Lib Ed req of Writing Intensive Instructor: STAFF Description: What is Literature? How do definitions of it differ over time and across cultures? How does literature play a role in the ways people see themselves and others? How do our histories - personal and cultural - determine how we read it? CSCL 1401W examines such questions in relation to larger patterns of culture and power. You'll emerge from the course with a solid sense of the differences among various genres, and the cultural contexts from which they arise - between an epic poem emerging from a Greek city state and a novel by a German civil servant, say. Small classes emphasize close reading, discussion, and practice in critical writing. An introductory course in every sense, it will give you a good sense of the field of Comparative Literature as well as reading and writing skills useful in many other courses and disciplines.

- CSCL 1401W Reading Literature: Theory and Practice 4 credits, meets Lib Ed req of Literature Core; meets Lib Ed req of Writing Intensive Instructor: Emily Fedoruk Description Selfish: Afterlives of the Author in the 21st Century Borrowing its title from two texts on our syllabus, our class will consider the role of the author in contemporary comparative literature, and indeed, daily life. We will follow French literary theorist Roland Barthes' famous essay, "The Death of the Author," into a study of the social production of literature in a global context--examining its "afterlives" nearly fifty years after this essay's publication. Widening our view to consider changing positions of authors now, we can look to celebrity Kim Kardashian West's Selfish, a book that demands we take seriously the significance of gender within the possibilities for reading and writing today. We engage feminism and Marxism as central theoretical modes to think through each text as a unique sociocultural process. The course objective will be to better understand our position as readers who actively make meaning in what we read, and to realize how authors themselves are created by this relationship. Our small class size allows us ample opportunity for discussion and participation, really getting up close to each text while working on our skills as writers and critical thinkers.

How do definitions of it differ over time and across cultures? How does literature play a role in the ways people see themselves and others? How do our histories - personal and cultural - determine how we read it? CSCL 1401W examines such questions in relation to larger patterns of culture and power. You'll emerge from the course with a solid sense of the differences among various genres, and the cultural contexts from which they arise - between an epic poem emerging from a Greek city state and a novel by a German civil servant, say.

You'll emerge from the course with a solid sense of the differences among various genres, and the cultural contexts from which they arise - between an epic poem emerging from a Greek city state and a novel by a German civil servant, say. Small classes emphasize close reading, discussion, and practice in critical writing.

How do definitions of it differ over time and across cultures? How does literature play a role in the ways people see themselves and others?
