Description:

(Alternate years 2010-2011) This introductory course acquaints students with critical lenses through which we perceive various “texts” in our world. Students will learn about critical approaches used prior to the post-modern movement, but the majority of the class time will be spent applying critical strategies promoted within the last fifty years to films and texts—both literary and non-literary. The strategies are broken into three main categories: emphasis on the text, emphasis on the source, and emphasis on the receiver. Prerequisite: EN 101.
