ENG 4110: The Form and Theory of Fiction
3.00 Credits
Northern Vermont University (7.1.2023 merged into Vermont State University)
This study of novels and short stories focuses on their structure and on the ideas that give life to that structure. It is a workshop-oriented course primarily for writers, and much of the criticism read has a practitioner's focus. Topics include the form of the novella, tone and texture in the contemporary short story, and the novel as memoir. Major fiction by American and European writers is studied, along with representative novels and short stories by non-western and third world writers. (Spring semesters, odd years)

ENG 4130: The Form and Theory of Nonfiction

ENG 4150: Literary Criticism and Theory
3.00 Credits
Northern Vermont University (7.1.2023 merged into Vermont State University)
This investigation of 20th century approaches to literary criticism and theory focuses on major "schools" of criticism and on the critics and theorists associated with them. Students develop a definitive, historical perspective on this kind of discourse, including the goals criticism and theory have striven to reach and the effects such discourse has had on the study of literature. Students are encouraged to draw upon their own inclinations as readers and scholars, trying out some of these critical stances and evaluating their usefulness and their value to us as individuals and as members of various interpretive communities. (Spring semesters, odd years)

ENG 4160: Investigative Journalism
3.00 Credits
Northern Vermont University (7.1.2023 merged into Vermont State University)
This course is designed to teach students best practices for in-depth reporting— reporting that goes beyond the immediate facts and official accounts. Students will learn to use public records, databases, and fieldwork to probe deeply into stories, with greater focus on the who, the why, and the overall context than is provided in the usual daily fare. Students will have a chance to grapple with complex stories that help define the political, social, and environmental realities of Vermont. Good investigative reporting, however, involves more than focused research techniques; students will learn how to hone analytical skills and to understand the legal and ethical issues involved in the craft. This class will emphasize stories that require planning, research, and clear goals towards greater understanding of important public issues.

ENG 4510: Literary Research Tutorial
3.00 Credits
Northern Vermont University (7.1.2023 merged into Vermont State University)
This course in bibliographic methods, research, and writing represents the culmination of the undergraduate B.A. in English. Students will work intensively on a project of their own design, practicing the essential steps in literary research, writing, and presentation. Over the course of the semester, each student will complete an introduction and research question, a formal research proposal, a literature review and an explanation of how his/her research will contribute to the existing scholarship on the topic, an annotated bibliography, and an essay of 10-15 pages that meets basic scholarly standards for presentation at a professional conference. Each student will read their essay and entertain questions about their work at an end-of-the-semester conference hosted by the Writing/Literature Department. The instructor will guide students through what can be a daunting process, from topic selection, identifying scholarly editions, surveying criticism on the topic, refining the focus, and placing the students' ideas in the context of the literature. The success of the project that students undertake depends heavily upon their ability to work independently, to exercise their own initiative in gathering materials and/or visiting libraries, and to pace themselves throughout the semester. The course requires two trips to the UVM library; for the first, the class will go together, and for the second, each student will make his/her own arrangements as to the day and time.
