This writing-intensive course is designed for students who wish to develop a foundational understanding of literary study, inquiry, and analysis. This course is organized around literary genres, and thus will introduce students to the fundamentals of fiction, poetry, and drama. This course will also question the boundaries of genre and of the category "literature" itself. Throughout the semester, we will reflect on the central questions: "What is Literature" and "Why do we study it"? After successfully completing this class, students will be equipped with the basic critical vocabulary and toolset for engaging in literary study. They will be prepared to analyze literary voice, tone, symbol, motif, theme, imagery, narrative, and form, among other literary aspects. They will also be equipped with several critical cultural lenses, among them gender, race, ethnicity, class, language, and national identity.

Class Notes:
This course will introduce international students and non-native speakers to the study of English literature at the college level. Students will explore different literary genres, including short fiction, poetry, and drama, from various time periods and cultures, and readings will be chosen to appeal to students who are new to the United States and/or learning to speak and write English. Students will be asked to read selected poems, stories, novels, and plays carefully, to think about them and the issues they raise, and to bring their opinions and observations to class. Students will also be encouraged to share their own stories of adjustment and challenge throughout the semester as they ask questions, make comments, discuss, think, and write about the selected texts. All 25 seats in section 3 will be reserved for international students and non-native speakers. Any student with an international or non-native student indicator can register for the class without a permission number. International students or non-native speakers who do not have an indicator may contact Rachel Drake , Coordinator of Advising in English, for a permission number.
