ENGL 40809: Latino/a Literature
3.00 Credits
University of Notre Dame

Among them are such established and acclaimed authors as Gary Soto, Lorna Dee Cervantes, Pat Mora, MartÃn Espada, Victor Hernández Cruz, Helena Viramontes, and Cristina GarcÃa. Because Latinos are not homogenous, emphasis will be given to these writers' diverse ethnic and cultural origins. Readings will be assigned in individual poetry collections, novels, and in one anthology of poetry. Assignments: group presentations, response papers, three 4- to 5-page papers, a final examination, and regular attendance.

ENGL 40813: New African-American Poetry
3.00 Credits
University of Notre Dame
This course is designed as an exploration and showcase of African American poetry and poetics, as seen through the poetry and essays of the post Civil Rights/ Black Arts Movement generation of poets. Although this course will also examine the historical elements of the African-American voice, the main focus of our reading and discussions will concentrate on the different and various facets of present day African-American poetry. While some of the writers we encounter during the semester may be known to many: Elizabeth Alexander, Terrance Hayes, Harryette Mullen, many more will prove to be poets with only first or second books under their belts. Though their pages, we will attempt to trace the path their poetry leads; what is their sense of voice? What obligations (if any) do they feel with the writing that's come before them? What new territories do they claim? It is hoped that the student will come away with a deeper understanding of what elements and issues define the 21st African American poetic voice.

ENGL 40818: Thinking through Crisis
3.00 Credits
University of Notre Dame
What does it mean to be in a crisis? We live only a few years after a natural disaster ravaged the southern coast of the United States; we live only a few years after incidents of racial violence and judicial mishaps culminated in national protest; finally, these issues have been swallowed up by our worry over an economic breakdown that has been called a mere downturn by some, a recession by others, and even fewer have called it a depression. But none of these descriptions help us understand what we mean by crisis and what potential there is to think and act in such turbulent times. The same sorts of issues troubling our present also troubled Americans living in the Great Depression. African American writers of that period wrote novels, short stories, autobiographies, historiographies, poetry and other literary pieces that were both aesthetically rich and experiments in thinking critically about these issues. This course simply asks: How can Depression-era African American literature help us understand what it means to think during a crisis, and see the word as a concept, not just a media buzz word? Readings will include canonical authors like W.E.B. Du Bois, Ida B. Wells, Zora Neale Hurston, Langston Hughes, and Carter G. Woodson, studied alongside artistic and theoretical responses to Hurricane Katrina, Jena 6, and other recent events.
