English 346: The Victorian Poets and Essayists
3.00 Credits
Colgate University
E. Sun A close study of works by British poets and essayists working in the Victorian era (1837-1901), a glorious age for Britain in terms of national political, economic, and scientific and technological supremacy. The course examines how poetry, traditionally the mainstay of the literary tradition, became one among many genres and arts during this age, redefining itself in relation to the novel as well as to opera and photography. Corollary to considering the relationship between the arts (in the plural), students investigate how critics and essayists variously sought to define the function of "art" (in the singular) to other sectors of society. Authors studied include Tennyson, the Brownings, Arnold, Mill, Carlyle, Ruskin, the Pre-Raphaelites, Lewis Carroll, Gilbert and Sullivan, Pater, Swinburne, Hopkins, Housman, and Wilde. (Post-1800 course.)

English 362: Global Desires:Race,Sex,and Modernity in Literature
3.00 Credits
Colgate University
M. Stephens An exploration of how the organization of erotic experience is articulated in literature in the context of the slave trade, colonialism and imperialism. The course's starting premises are twofold: first, that colonial and intercultural environments forced different racial, sexual and gendered subjects to perform their identities in each others' presence and in dynamic relation to various notions of the Other; and second, that the taboo against miscegenation and interracial desire has been as formative in the history of modern sexuality as the taboos against incest and homosexuality. The course requires students to engage with advanced theoretical readings in critical race theory, queer theory, and gender and sexuality studies, alongside the close reading and formal literary analysis of primary texts. (Post-1800 course.)
