ENG 180 - LITERATURE AND ROCK AND ROLL

Institution:

Kutztown University of Pennsylvania

Subject:

English

Description:

This course examines the relationships social, cultural, and artistic between literature and rock music. Course materials include works of literature, broadly conceived, that directly engage with or seek to represent rock music, and rock music that addresses, comments on, or is influenced by literary history and culture. The course explores the notion that rock music should be taken as seriously as literature, and the complementary notion that techniques of literary interpretation can be productively applied to rock's intensities, pleasures, and complexities. Readings will rock, listening will be loud.
