  • ENG 109: REBEL HEARTS EXPLORE IRISH LIT

    3.00 Credits
    Kutztown University of Pennsylvania

    We have always found the Irish to be a bit odd. They refuse to be English. These words uttered by Winston Churchill point to the tenacious character of Irish culture to be forcibly unique despite the impact of colonialism and conflict. Such an identity is fiercely present in a centuries-old body of Irish literature that appeals to a reader's sense of history, humor, revolution, and romance. From ancient Celtic mysticism to medieval folklore, political nationalism to 1:5lobal revolution, contemporary thrillers to gothic horror, ever-present humor to bleak tragedy, the Irish literary tradition canvasses all genres and forms in a way that is uniquely Irish. This course will offer students an opportunity to experience all of this in an effort to truly understand what it means to be Irish.

  • ENG 116: WEIRD FICTIONS

    3.00 Credits
    Kutztown University of Pennsylvania

    Uncanny fantasy stories, slasher movies, and heavy metal mt1sic are just a few examples of the unpopular culture the course considers. Beginning with the weird fictions of H. P. Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard, we'll read, watch, and listen through the twentieth century, unearthing significant movements and texts in unpopular culture, in America and elsewhere, and socio political responses to these weird fictions. Through close analysis of fiction, films, and other media, students examine the parameters of aesthetic taste, good and bad, and consider the social at1d cultural work that underground, alternative, and sub-sub genre texts do. Throughout we will consider why and how so many of those texts have proven so su111risingly popular, so strangely pleasurable, and oddly important.
