EL 3410 - Reading Multicultural Lit. II

Institution:

SUNY College at Old Westbury

Subject:

English

Description:

This course encourages diverse responses to some of the works of literature traditionally taught in English and American Literature courses. It fosters the skills of close reading and develops the confidence necessary for independent "readings" or interpretations of literary texts. After studying each of the four texts students read critical articles about them reflecting the approaches of traditional "new" criticism, biographical criticism, new historicism & feminism. Small group discussions of study questions, oral reports, and writing assignments will encourage students to read the texts specifically and respond to them independently. Offered every spring. Prerequisite: EMS.
