  • ENGL 34305: Ulysses

    1.50 Credits
    University of Notre Dame

    This seminar will offer students the opportunity to acquire a detailed and intimate reading knowledge of Joyce's masterpiece, his "comic epic poem in prose" centred on the sights, sounds and smells of Dublin on June 16, 1904. Students will be encouraged to develop and follow their own interests; but there will be certain minimal secondary requirements and at least a nodding acquaintance with some of the multifarious Joyces that have emerged over the years - Homeric Joyce, psychoanalytic Joyce, feminist Joyce, postcolonial Joyce. But the primary emphasis will be on the reading of Joyce's text and what we as interpreters bring to it, individually and collectively. Essential Text: The Student's Annotated "Ulysses", ed.

    In a communications world dominated by visual culture, television has become society's primary storyteller.

Through exploring the structures, methods, meanings, and impacts of television's various narrative forms, this course will consider how the medium of television enables creators and viewers to tap into the fundamental cultural practice of storytelling. Across the semester, students will read theories of narratology and assessments of television's narrative techniques, screen a variety of narrative examples (chiefly from American television, though some non-American television might be screened), and write their own critical analyses of television's storytelling practices.
