Institution:

DigiPen Institute of Technology

Subject:

Description:

Prerequisite(s): ENG 110 & ENG 150, or Equivalent This course explores what modernity and post-modernity have or have not meant to American writers whose histories and cultures are not European in origin but whose writings are steeped in European- American literary traditions. The course explores the cultural hybridism of this literature as well the unique visions of the world they have created. These funny, humorous, bitterly satirical, and downright serious (post)- modern fantasies are quintessentially American, yet also unique and peculiar to these authors' ethnic experiences. The selected works also offer an opportunity to read or re-read well established and newer American works of literature.
