Description:

Focusing on the twentieth century, this interdisciplinary CORE I course involves a rigorous examination of literature as both commentary upon and the product of history, and a consideration of history as a matter of representation and interpretation. Though this is a chronological sequel to EN 216, that course is in no way prerequisite. Authors studied will include Hemingway, Hurston, Wright, Agee, and others both inside and outside the ?mainstream of American literature. Students will also read various historiographical texts and works of literary and cultural criticism. Fulfills a CORE I course requirement.
