The focus of this 400-level course in literature and education will be the relationship that exists between the structures of education and the practice of educating as it appears in a variety of texts. We will explore the enterprise of education as it appears in literature as well as from historical, philosophical, sociological and educational theory perspectives. We will read from a wide variety of texts and will consider the aims of education, the relationship between student and teacher, the disconnect between educational theory and practice and education as instrument of change as it is presented in literary worlds. Prerequisites or corequisites: ENG 102, ENG 200/ENG 218, ENG 300.

Topics include women and science, the languages of science and heroes/anti-heroes of science.

This course introduces students to the theory and practice of cultural studies, which itself takes the theories and practices of textual analysis, combines them with the theories and practices of social analysis – especially those of psychoanalysis, anthropology, sociology, gender studies and feminism – and applies them to contemporary cultural objects, in the interest of demonstrating how such objects are formed at the intersection of various cultural forces and how they reproduce dominant cultural values, often problematic cultural values including cultural prejudices and structures of power. Cultural studies offers a valuable analysis for social progress and change. Prerequisites: ENG 102, ENG 200/ENG 218, ENG 300 or senior status.

3.00 Credits
Works of literature have often been transformed and recreated in musical form, though the process has occasionally worked the opposite way. This course aims to study works in several literary forms (poetry, novels and drama) to consider what happens when they are transformed into a variety of musical forms (e.g. opera, popular musicals, rock and gospel) – or vice versa. We will focus particularly on the effect that the addition or deletion of music has on the tone, theme and characterization of each of these works, and thus try to sharpen our sense of how music creates meaning. Prerequisites or corequisites: ENG 102, ENG 200/ENG 218, ENG 300.
