ENGL 20152: An Introduction to Indo-European Epic: Poetry, Criticism, and Poetic Analysis
3.00 Credits
University of Notre Dame
This course focuses on the three major divisions of Indo-European epic that are frequently studied separately, but rarely treated together. These divisions - Classical European Epic, Christian European Epic, and Non-European Epic - are represented by three of the greatest literary achievements of all time: the Aeneid, the Divine Comedy, and the Mahabharata. We will look at these works individually and in relation to each other and to ourselves.

ENGL 20153: Happily Never After? Re-imagining the Fairy Tale
3.00 Credits
University of Notre Dame
This course will examine the enduring popularity of the fairy tale, as well as the forces underlying the changes in its form and meaning. By investigating the historical development of the fairy tale, students will be introduced to various methods of literary and cultural analysis. The course will begin with the origins of the literary fairy tale in 16th-century Italy, and conclude in the 20th century with Anglophone postmodern transformations. We will consider the multi-cultural nature of the fairy tale, as we examine the transmission of various tales across linguistic and national borders. Students will be introduced to various theoretical models of interpretation; we will explore structuralist, psychoanalytical, feminist, and postmodernist readings of both traditional and modern fairy tales. This course will also involve cross-disciplinary materials from subjects like history, anthropology, philosophy, and gender studies in order to examine larger themes like identity and hierarchy. Course materials include collections of world fairy tales, short novels, poetry, cartoons, television programs, films, and graphic novels. Students are expected to complete a short critical review, a take-home midterm, and a substantial comparative final paper. Students who are enrolled in this course and who have completed the Notre Dame language requirement in Italian are eligible to sign up for an additional single credit discussion section as part of the Languages Across the Curriculum initiative Fridays at 12:50 - 1:40.

ENGL 20195: The Literature of Disability
3.00 Credits
University of Notre Dame
"This new critical perspective [Disability Studies] conceptualizes disability as a representational system rather than a medical problem, a discursive construction rather than a personal misfortune or a bodily flaw, and a subject appropriate for wide-ranging cultural analysis within the humanities instead of an applied field within medicine, rehabilitation, or social work. Such an approach focuses its analysis, then, on how disability is imagined, specifically on the figures and narratives that comprise the cultural context in which we know ourselves and one another." - Rosemarie Garland Thomson, "The Beauty and the Freak," p. 181 What is disability? What does it mean to be considered disabled? What is the relationship of disability to what is thought to be 'non-disabled,' or 'normal'? In this course, we will consider writings and films about disability and individuals labeled disabled. Our readings will include fiction and nonfiction works about people with various physical and cognitive disabilities, including blindness, multiple sclerosis, autism, and others. We will explore the ways in which the disabled have been represented in such works, and the rhetorical resources for constructing 'disability' in literature, non-fiction, and film. We will consider the ways in which writers considered disabled write about themselves, telling their own stories, and the ways in which these writings may complicate, subvert, or defy conventional representations of the disabled. In exploring these and related issues, we will consider the implications of disability for individuals and society.

3.00 Credits
University of Notre Dame
In this class, we will read two works by professional scholars of medieval literature: The Lord of the Rings and The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. These popular and accessible works enact two important modes of literary narrative: allegory and symbol. The broad aim of this course is to be an introduction to medieval literature, and more specifically to bring some important theoretical writings on allegory and symbol to bear on several medieval texts and modern texts that they inspired.
