- This course will provide a historical survey of British literature from the Middle Ages to the end of the eighteenth century. Our focus will be on tracing the interactions between literature and wider British culture as well as on tracing the development of literary form during this period. You should leave this course being able to identify major literary trends and authors and link them to corresponding formal techniques and innovations. You should also have a sense of the major historical and political events, rulers, and social conditions in Britain at this time. Additionally, because this is a writing intensive course, you will leave this class familiar with the process of writing a research paper with a literary focus, which includes finding and successfully incorporating contemporary scholarly research about your topic into your paper, crafting an original argument, utilizing textual evidence, and evaluating existing scholarship.
- Class Description:
In this class, we will study British Literature that spans roughly 1000 years of British history, from the Anglo-Saxon invasion through the eighteenth century. As we move through the centuries, we will encounter a variety of texts and genres, and we will study them with a careful eye toward their historical, social, and political contexts. How do literary representations of violence, war, and betrayal respond to, mirror, or distort real world events? How do texts represent men and women in ways that both reify and challenge the expectations of their time? How does the form of a text affect our interpretation of its meaning? We will study literature across many genres - from epic poetry to drama to short stories to social pamphlets - and students should leave this class armed with an interpretative toolset underwritten by newfound knowledge of historical periods, literary methodology and cultural criticism.

- This course will provide a historical survey of British literature from the Middle Ages to the end of the eighteenth century. Our focus will be on tracing the interactions between literature and wider British culture as well as on tracing the development of literary form during this period. You should leave this course being able to identify major literary trends and authors and link them to corresponding formal techniques and innovations. You should also have a sense of the major historical and political events, rulers, and social conditions in Britain at this time. Additionally, because this is a writing intensive course, you will leave this class familiar with the process of writing a research paper with a literary focus, which includes finding and successfully incorporating contemporary scholarly research about your topic into your paper, crafting an original argument, utilizing textual evidence, and evaluating existing scholarship.
- Class Description:
In this class, we will study British Literature that spans roughly 1000 years of British history, from the Anglo-Saxon invasion through the eighteenth century. As we move through the centuries, we will encounter a variety of texts and genres, and we will study them with a careful eye toward their historical, social, and political contexts. How do literary representations of violence, war, and betrayal respond to, mirror, or distort real world events? How do texts represent men and women in ways that both reify and challenge the expectations of their time? How does the form of a text affect our interpretation of its meaning? We will study literature across many genres - from epic poetry to drama to short stories to social pamphlets - and students should leave this class armed with an interpretative toolset underwritten by newfound knowledge of historical periods, literary methodology and cultural criticism.

- Class Description:
In this class, we will study British Literature that spans roughly 1000 years of British history, from the Anglo-Saxon invasion through the eighteenth century. As we move through the centuries, we will encounter a variety of texts and genres, and we will study them with a careful eye toward their historical, social, and political contexts. How do literary representations of violence, war, and betrayal respond to, mirror, or distort real world events? How do texts represent men and women in ways that both reify and challenge the expectations of their time? How does the form of a text affect our interpretation of its meaning? We will study literature across many genres - from epic poetry to drama to short stories to social pamphlets - and students should leave this class armed with an interpretative toolset underwritten by newfound knowledge of historical periods, literary methodology and cultural criticism.

As we move through the centuries, we will encounter a variety of texts and genres, and we will study them with a careful eye toward their historical, social, and political contexts. How do literary representations of violence, war, and betrayal respond to, mirror, or distort real world events? How do texts represent men and women in ways that both reify and challenge the expectations of their time? How does the form of a text affect our interpretation of its meaning? We will study literature across many genres - from epic poetry to drama to short stories to social pamphlets - and students should leave this class armed with an interpretative toolset underwritten by newfound knowledge of historical periods, literary methodology and cultural criticism.

- Class Description:
- This course is a survey of literature composed in the British Isles from our earliest medieval evidence down through the eighteenth century. We will read works that have stood the test of time for hundreds of years, and one of our main goals will be to bring these works alive, see what makes them tick, and let them speak to us in their profound ways. Texts and authors are likely to include: _Beowulf_ and other Anglo-Saxon poems; Chaucer; medieval romance; medieval drama; Spenser, _The Faerie Queene_; Shakespeare; Milton, _Paradise Lost_ and other poems; John Donne; Alexander Pope's _Rape of the Lock_ and other poems, and more. We will also learn about the original historical contexts of these premodern classics and learn many basic things about literary analysis. This is a demanding course in terms of the nature and volume of the reading; it is also a Writing Intensive course. Buckle up.

We will read about dragons, angels, knights, and kings, wars, loves, and losses. Through it all, we will learn new ways in which to contextualize and analyze the texts of the past, using them to interrogate both the world from which they arose, as well as our own world. This course will include the viewing and analysis of film adaptations of some texts.

- Class Description:
- This course is supposed to cover British literature from the Middle Ages through the 18th century. I'm not even going to pretend that this is possible to do, comprehensively, in 15 weeks. What we will hit are the most influential highlights, the greatest hits, though not necessarily the most canonical if you will, of this millennium and a half, focusing rather more intently on the last 300 or so of those years. You will get, and you will need it, a wide range of historical context to help you understand these texts; I have no illusions about any given piece of literature's "universal" appeal and know that even the best readers need assistance with material that is many generations removed from our own lives and experiences. And, yet, in spite of their apparent differences, we will also be looking for connections, drawing lines of continuity with our own time even as we discuss the contrasts. Additionally, this is a "W" course, so expect to do a substantial amount of writing.

- Class Description:
- Over the course of the semester, we will cover roughly 1000 years of British literature and history, stretching from the Anglo-Saxon invasions through the eighteenth century. Our focus will be on tracing the interactions between literature and wider British culture as well as the development of literary form during this period. You should ideally leave this course being able to identify major literary trends and authors and link them to corresponding formal techniques and innovations. You should also have a sense of the major historical and political events, rulers, and social conditions in Britain at this time. Assignments will likely include a group presentation; two short, argumentative essays (4-5pp); one scholarly review (1-2pp); and periodic quizzes.

- Class Description:
- This course, the first in the Survey of British Literature series, introduces students to the literature of the British Isles from the Anglo-Saxon period to the eighteenth century. This broad sweep through time covers the Medieval period, the Renaissance (or, Early Modern Age), Civil Wars, Restoration, and the Enlightenment and provides a fascinating variety of works in a multitude of genres including poetry, drama, plays, novels, essays, autobiography, and speeches. Students will read authors such as Milton, Chaucer, Spenser, Marlowe, and DeFoe, as well as lesser-known writers, thus gaining a more complete understanding of the literature of these periods. Because artistic expression is affected and informed by historical circumstances, texts are placed within their historical moments and considered in terms of their social, political, biographical, and economical contexts and close reading is used to connect features of the texts to their culture in order to gain a greater understanding of both. This course is demanding in its reading and writing requirements, but the variety and complexity of human experiences presented here affords great opportunity for stimulating discussion and thoughtful writing.

- Course Catalog Description:
- An introductory historical survey of British literature and culture from the Anglo-Saxon invasions through the end of the 18th century.
- Class Description:
- This course is a survey of the most interesting and important literature written in England from the earliest Middle Ages to 1800. For example, from the medieval period, we read works including Beowulf, Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, and selections from the Book of Margery Kempe; from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, we read Shakespeare's sonnets, Marlowe's Dr. Faustus, and selections from Milton's Paradise Lost; moving to the eighteenth century, our readings include Pope's Rape of the Lock and Swift's Gulliver's Travels. Although we are careful to think in terms of the literary interest of this writing, we do not treat the works that we read as timeless works of art. Rather, we are concerned with literature in relation to human experience as it arose in specific contexts and at specific times. Questions about the act of reading and writing (who is involved in written culture during this time and why was it important to these people?) are central to our analysis of literary traditions.

- Class Description:
- This course, the first in the Survey of British Literature series, introduces students to the literature of the British Isles from the Anglo-Saxon period to the eighteenth century. This broad sweep through time covers the Medieval period, the Renaissance (or, Early Modern Age), Civil Wars, Restoration, and the Enlightenment and provides a fascinating variety of works in a multitude of genres including poetry, drama, plays, novels, essays, autobiography, and speeches. Students will read authors such as Milton, Chaucer, Spenser, Marlowe, and DeFoe, as well as lesser-known writers, thus gaining a more complete understanding of the literature of these periods. Because artistic expression is affected and informed by historical circumstances, texts are placed within their historical moments and considered in terms of their social, political, biographical, and economical contexts and close reading is used to connect features of the texts to their culture in order to gain a greater understanding of both. This course is demanding in its reading and writing requirements, but the variety and complexity of human experiences presented here affords great opportunity for stimulating discussion and thoughtful writing.

- Class Description:
- This course is supposed to cover British literature from the Middle Ages through the 18th century. I?m not even going to pretend that this is possible to do, comprehensively, in 15 weeks. What we will hit are the most influential highlights, the greatest hits, though not necessarily the most canonical if you will, of this millennium and a half, focusing rather more intently on the last 300 or so of those years. You will get, and you will need it, a wide range of historical context to help you understand these texts; I have no illusions about any given piece of literature's ?universal? appeal and know that even the best readers need assistance with material that is many generations removed from our own lives and experiences. And, yet, in spite of their apparent differences, we will also be looking for connections, drawing lines of continuity with our own time even as we discuss the contrasts. Additionally, this is a ?W? course, so expect to do a substantial amount of writing.

Students will read authors such as Milton, Chaucer, Spenser, Marlowe, and DeFoe, as well as lesser-known writers, thus gaining a more complete understanding of the literature of these periods. Because artistic expression is affected and informed by historical circumstances, texts are placed within their historical moments and considered in terms of their social, political, biographical, and economical contexts and close reading is used to connect features of the texts to their culture in order to gain a greater understanding of both. This course is demanding in its reading and writing requirements, but the variety and complexity of human experiences presented here affords great opportunity for stimulating discussion and thoughtful writing.

- An introductory historical survey of British literature and culture from the Anglo-Saxon invasions through the end of the 18th century.
- Class Description:
- This course introduces students to the literature of the British Isles from the Anglo-Saxon period to the eighteenth century. It will cover the Medieval period, the Early Modern period, the Civil Wars and Restoration, and the Enlightenment, and do so via a rich variety of texts and genres, including poetry, drama, essays, novels, travel narratives, and speeches. Authors covered will include but certainly not be limited to Milton, Chaucer, Spenser, Shakespeare, Marlowe, and Defoe, as well as lesser-known writers, ultimately striving to approach a more complete understanding of the literature of those periods. Contextualizing these literatures within their historical circumstances will be paramount; texts will be read through their historical moments and examined in terms of their social, political, biographical, economical, and global contexts. Close reading will be used not just to extract meanings from the texts, but also to as a means of connecting the text to its culture so as to better understand both. Although demanding in its reading and writing requirements, the first course in the Survey of British Literature series examines the complexity of human experience in a nation rich with culture and heritage, offering opportunities for stimulating class discussion and insightful writing.

- Class Description:
- This course is a printed distance learning section (known as a correspondence course) offered through Online and Distance Learning, College of Continuing Education. You will work independently, not as part of a student group. Visit "Class URL" for ODL policies, including fee and financial aid restrictions. Engl 3003W is the first course in a two-semester look at English poetry and prose from its beginning into the 20th century. It focuses on works written between the Middle Ages and the end of the 18th century. You may have enrolled in this course as the first step toward studying English writers, working into modern times, or you may simply want to study writers from earlier centuries in order to gain a historical perspective on more recent literature. Either way, I want you to enjoy the experience, considering at every stage the ways in which early literature is still relevant to us in the present.
