ENG 326 - Urban Adventures: Re- Writing Los Angeles

Institution:

Antioch University-Los Angeles

Subject:

Description:

In this class students immerse themselves in the art of creative non-fiction as a means to explore and investigate the city of Los Angeles. Through in-class and at-home writing exercises, text-experiments, and urban investigations, students generate writing about Los Angeles, imaginatively mapping both their own neighborhoods and communities, as well as communities not their own. The emphasis is on creating alternative cartographies and new visions of LA for the 21st century, and in the process coming up with a vibrant re-thinking of the very notion of community, city, and the urban self.
