  • ENG 340: Studies in Individual Authors Colonial Joyce

    3.00 Credits
    Wabash College

    James Joyce was born and raised in colonized Ireland. In English 340, we will read Dubliners, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Exiles, Ulysses, and some of Joyce's political writing. Our discussion of these texts will focus mainly on the writer's commentary on imperialism, racial bias, anti-Semitism, and other forms of oppression present in late-colonial Ireland. We will try to determine why Joyce famously declared: "I will not serve that in which I no longer believe, whether it call itself my home, my fatherland, or my church." In some texts, Joyce anticipates the postcolonial challenges the Irish people may face after their liberation from the British Empire. All of the books included in this course are deeply embedded in and inspired by Dublin-a city with which Joyce had a love-hate relationship, and which provided him with a wealth of characters and stories for his fict ion. Uly sses is a challenging book, but its plot and structure become much clearer when one immerses oneself in the life of the city and mimics the path of Leopold Bloom and Stephen Daedalus. An immersion trip to Dublin during the Thanksgiving week will enhance our textual, cultural, and historical and biographical study of Joyce's tePrerequisite: Junior or Senior standing Credits: 1

  • ENG 370: Studies in Special Topics:Medieval/Modern Literature

    1.00 Credits
    Wabash College

    Ezra Pound, James Joyce, and T.S. Eliot, arguably the greatest Modernists of 20th century literature in English, drew deep inspiration from the Middle Ages. C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, and Charles Williams, a literary group known as the Inklings, drew even more directly on the Middle Ages in their rich fantasies. In this course, we'll read and study some medieval texts-Beowulf, Chretien's romanc e, Yvai n, some troubadour poetry-and consider their refractions in one major 20th century te xt, Person ae (Pound), as well as in more popular works, such as Tolkie n's The Ho bbit and John Gardn er's Gre ndel. In the process, we will examine the literary relations between the medieval world and modernism and the diverse medieval worlds "invented" by several interesting 20th century wrCredits: 1
