This course explores how African novels are in conversation with European literary texts. More specifically, we will address how these African novels function as "histories", by revising European colonial representations of Africa. In the process of examining these dialogues on a thematic, conceptual, and historical level, we will also address the genealogy of the novel in Africa as a genre and how African novelists reinvent it. To these ends, the course is built around four literary pairings. We will focus on four key African novels including Chinua Achebe's Things Fall Apart and J.M. Coetzee's Life and Times of Michael K, as well as those texts in the English literary canon to which they "speak", including Alice in Wonderland and Bartleby the Scrivener. Fulfills: Literature & Diversity requirement (LT), World Literature requirement for English Education students.
