ENGL 40953: The Roman World of Apuleius
3.00 Credits
University of Notre Dame
An advanced course in Roman history and literature that investigates the Latin author Apuleius in his socio-cultural context. The course begins with the Romano-African setting into which Apuleius was born, recreates the educational travels to Carthage, Athens and Rome that occupied his early life, and focuses especially on his trial for magic in Sabratha in Tripolitania before following him back to Carthage where he spent the remainder of his life. Notice will be taken of all Apuleius' writings, but special attention will be paid to the Apology, a version of the speech of defence made at his trial, and to the socio-cultural significance of his work of imaginative fiction, the Metamorphoses. The course is open to students with or without Latin.

ENGL 43102: Seminar: Religion and Literature
3.00 Credits
University of Notre Dame
A consideration of the forms, ideas, and preoccupations of the religious imagination in literature and of the historical relationships between religious faith and traditions and particular literary works. The conflicts and tensions between modern Gnosticism, in literature and ideology, and the sacramental imagination will constitute a recurring point of focus. We will also lend special attention to the vision and imagery of the journey and wayfarer and the conflicts and affinities between private and communal expressions of faith.

ENGL 43105: Seminar: The Devotional Lyric
3.00 Credits
University of Notre Dame
Following the Reformation-era's massive upheavals came the greatest flowering of devotional poetry in the English language. This body of literature offers its readers the opportunity to explore questions pertaining broadly to the study of religion and literature and to the study of lyric. Early modern devotional poetry oscillates between eros and agape, private and communal modes of expression, guilt and pride, doubt and faith, evanescence and transcendence, mutability and permanence, femininity and masculinity, success and failure, and agency and helpless passivity. We'll follow devotional poets through their many oscillations and turns by combining careful close reading of the poetry with the study of relevant historical, aesthetic, and theological contexts. Students will learn to read lyric poetry skillfully and sensitively, to think carefully about relationships between lyric and religion, and to write incisively and persuasively about lyric. Our authors will likely include William Alabaster, Richard Crashaw, John Donne, George Herbert, Robert Herrick, Anne Locke, Andrew Marvell, Mary Sidney, Robert Southwell, Thomas Traherne, and Henry Vaughan; we may also read some work from earlier and later periods. There will be three major course requirements: 1). Regular short written responses to assigned readings; these will be revised and submitted at the end of the course in lieu of a final exam. 2). A poet project; for these projects each student will be assigned a writer on whom to prepare a brief biography, bibliographic information on the poetry's publication and/or circulation history, and an annotated bibliography of major scholarship. These projects will be made available to every student enrolled in the course; we'll leave the course with a wealth of information about the authors we study. 3). An 8 to 10 page focused interpretive essay on a topic of the student's choosing.

ENGL 43201: Seminar: The Pearl Poet
3.00 Credits
University of Notre Dame
Close readings of the Arthurian romance of Gawain, Patience (the whimsical, pre-Pinnochio-and-Gepetto paraphrase of the story of Jonah and the whale), Cleanness (a series of homiletic reflections of great power, beauty, grim wit, and compassionate insight centered on varying conceptions of "purity"), and Pearl (the elegiac dream-vision that begins with the mourning father who has lost a young daughter, then moves with amazing grace from the garden where he grieves into a richly envisioned earthly paradise where he is astonished to re-encounter his lost "Pearl," who then leads him to the vision of a New Jerusalem whose post-apocalyptic landscape is populated exclusively by throngs of beautiful maidens).
