- Course Catalog Description:
- In this course, we will read and study novels of twentieth and twenty-first century American writers, from early 1900's realism through Modernists (e.g., Faulkner, Hemingway, Fitzgerald) to more contemporary writers (e.g., Baldwin, Ellison, Erdrich, Roth, Pynchon). We will explore each text in relation to literary, cultural, and historical developments and question the narrative and stylistic strategies specific to each work.

- Class Description:
- This course will examine the development of the twentieth-century U.S. novel, situating that development in the historical contexts of the century. We'll consider realist and regionalist responses to the diversification and urbanization of the country; modernist negotiations of industrialism and changing social norms; proletarian literary protests of the intersection of capitalism, racism, and patriarchy; and a range of responses to post-World War II American society.
