This writing-intensive course will introduce you to texts from geographical locations such as Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean with the aim of examining the impact that colonialism has had on previously colonized nations, as well as the world as a whole. Through close readings of these texts, we will examine questions related to concepts such as "third world," nationalism, difference, representation, and displacement.

Class Description:

In this course, we will read literary texts from diverse backgrounds written in the nineteenth-century and after. While works written by American or British authors are not entirely excluded, our focus is with authors of other national origins and their engagement with English and literatures written in English. This course will cover texts originally written in English as well as texts that gained currency within the Anglophone world through translation. As we read a text in the broad light of imperialism and postcolonialism, we will examine issues of race, gender, and class at work in the text within specific historical and political contexts.

Class Format:
Mostly discussion-based.
