ENGL 40725: Class, Labor, and Narrative
3.00 Credits
University of Notre Dame
An exploration of short stories and novels depicting the "working stiff" in the U.S. from 1920 to the present. Our reading list will include many of the usual suspects (James Farrell, John Steinbeck, Richard Wright, Nora Zeale Hurston, William Saroyan, Langston Hughes, Grace Paley, Tillie Olsen, and Raymond Carver); writers not usually associated with labor (Jean Toomer, Gertrude Stein, and Donald Barthelme); and contemporary writers (Sherman Alexie, Sandra Cisneros, Aleksandar Hemon, Edwidge Danticat, Juno DÃaz, Gish Jen, and George Saunders). We'll question the representation of labor, laborers, and class differences, and we'll also pose aesthetic questions: What narrative forms most provocatively explore particular kinds of work? What work do experimental texts perform that more conventional narratives cannot (and vice versa)? Many of thetheorists we'll rely on for insights about workers, class, and writing (Tillie Olsen, James Agee, and Barbara Ehrenreich) make good use of narrative themselves, and will help us contemplate how writing about labor can also reflect the labor of writing. Short response papers, group presentation, midterm, and a final project.

ENGL 40734: Post 9/11 American Fiction and Culture
3.00 Credits
University of Notre Dame
In speaking of the after-effects of the first World War, the American novelist Henry James said: "The war has used up words; they have weakened, they have deteriorated like motor car tires; they have, like millions of other things, been more overstrained and knocked about and voided of the happy semblance during the last six months than in all the long ages before, and we are now confronted with a depreciation of all our terms, or, otherwise speaking, with a loss of expression through increase of limpness, that may well make us wonder what ghosts will be left to walk." Writers such as Don DeLillo, Cormac McCarthy, and Phillip Roth, the authors of the 9/11 Commission Report, film makers, politicians and intellectuals have all portrayed the post 9/11 world in language similar to James's post-apocalyptic vision. This course looks at contemporary American culture and society and asks whether or not there is a definable post 9/11 narrative and aesthetic. Well address the ways in which the world has changed since 9/11 and how those changes have impacted daily life, local communities, the national consciousness, and global affairs. Discussion of these changes will be situated in our examination of major, post 9/11 novels, works of art, film and other media, formal governmental publication and policies, and religious writings. This course will have some short writing assignments, class presentation, and a final, research paper.
