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. Class Time: 40% lecture, 60% discussion
