ENGL 02205 - Adolescent Literature

Institution:

Rowan University

Subject:

Description:

This course, a 200-level elective, examines contemporary understandings of adolescence as a developmental state betwixt and between childhood and adulthood through literature that is about adolescents and their concerns. The class will explore texts adults believe suitable for adolescents that may or may not have been written with them in mind but that are regularly taught or given to young-adults, as well as literature written especially for them (Y.A. Literature). Central to this course is the idea that adolescence is a culturally constructed category of identity that varies across regions, time, race, glass, gender and sexuality.
