Subject:

Description:

How do writers transform traditional literary forms to express new perceptions of identity, sexuality, society, and nature In this course, we will examine the way the poets, playwrights, journalists, and fiction writers of Restoration and 18th-century England imitated, reworked, and finally rejected old genres to forge new kinds of literary expression. Readings include works by Aphra Behn, Dryden, Swift, Pope, Johnson, and Goldsmith. This course satisfies the requirement of a course emphasizing literature written before 1800 or a course emphasizing cultural context.
