3 semester hours 'The American Dream' is a familiar phrase, but what does it mean? Whose dream is it? Is there just one dream for allAmericans or do different Americans and different groups of Americans dream different dreams? Is the dream simply an individualistic one of self-fulfillment and happiness or can it possess a social dimension? If it possesses a social dimension, is it one of community and interdependence or one of power, empire and dominance? Can the American dream be-or become-a nightmare? In what way has the American dream (or dreams) changed throughout history? In this course we will closely examine multiple texts from a number of fields (i.e. history, social science and literature) which focus-in a variety of different ways-on the notion of American dreams, exploring the various embodiments and expressions of the American dream throughout history and in the present day.
