ENG 353 - Contemporary Amer Literature

Institution:

Cabrini University - Closed

Subject:

English

Description:

By looking at contemporary American literature (1945-present), students in this course will better understand the experimental impulses that define the American postmodernist era. Specifically, our consideration of late-century poetry, prose, and drama will suggest that American postmodernism-like the Modernism that preceded it-does not so much refer to an artistic movement as it does reflect the broad constellation of socio-cultural trends that compose American culture today. In each semester, the course will focus on a unique cohort of twentieth and twenty-first-century writers. 3 credits
