  • ENGL 189: Studies in British Literature:London Biography Literature

    4.00 Credits
    Drew University

    For this course we shall become London flaneurs, walking the streets and interpreting the signs of the city as if it were a text. We shall read a range of nineteenth and twentieth century writings, including classics such as Our Mutual Friend, and lesser known works. Through Amy Levy (Reuben Sachs), Virginia Woolf (Mrs. Dalloway) and Jean Rhys (Good Morning, Midnight) we can explore the changing role of women in the metropolis. In Alexander Baron's The Lowlife we can glimpse the East End's historic importance as a home to refugees and see how it turned into Bangla Town in Monica Ali's Brick Lane. In Conrad we find London as the centre of Empire and in the work of Sam Selvon and Monica Ali we have examples of how the Empire has written back. By paying close attention to both text and context, we shall achieve a lively appreciation of the works in and of themselves and as part of the cultural life of London. Course may be repeated. Signature of instructor required for registration. Offered fall semester in London.
