  • ENG 333: Studies in Romanticism

    1.00 Credits
    Gustavus Adolphus College

    The "Romantic Movement" has been viewed in various ways, including in terms of political and social upheavals, such as the revolutions in America and France; in terms of a specific group of English writers, the first generation (Blake, Wordsworth, Coleridge) and second generation (Byron, Shelley, Keats) of British Romantic poets; in terms of a broad intellectual movement that affected the fine arts, music, and literature on the Continent and America as well as in Britain. This course will take up topics drawn most often from the literature of Britain in the period 1789-1850, but may from time to time focus on other writers from Continental Europe or America.

  • ENG 334: The Victorian Age

    1.00 Credits
    Gustavus Adolphus College

    During the Victorian era, England reached its pinnacle of power and prestige. Its trade was four times that of the United States, France, Germany, and Italy combined. It had established a world empire. England also experienced the upheavals of the Irish Rebellion, the Women's Movement, Industrialism, Darwinism, and foreign wars. Such a culture nurtured one of the great literary periods, producing such novelists as Charles Dickens, Charlotte Bront , Emily Bront , Thomas Hardy, and George Eliot; such poets as Alfred Lord Tennyson, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Robert Browning, Christina Rossetti, Gerard Manley Hopkins; such great essayists as Matthew Arnold, John Stuart Mill, John Henry Newman, and Thomas Carlyle. Prerequisites: ENG-114, ENG-115 or ENG-116, ENG-121 or ENG-122. WRITD, Fall semester, odd years.
