Spring 2023 Course Details
This course, an introduction to the art and the conventions of literary analysis, has two main goals: to help students become more skillful close readers and analytical writers; and to explore the ways in which scholarship in the humanities, and in literature in particular, enriches public life. We will practice reading and writing about texts from a range of genres, including drama, fiction, non-fiction prose, and poetry, as well as from across centuries and national boundaries. English 419 will help you develop and improve the skills in interpretation, analysis, and argumentation you will need to do well as an English major, and in whatever career you choose.
English 419 fulfills the University Discovery INQ requirement, and is a Writing Intensive Course.
