Academic Year 2000/2001
The Study of Literature
ENGL 201 SP
This course will introduce students to the careful reading of texts, especially lyric poems, and familiarize them with the idea of literature as a part of history and culture.
MAJOR READINGS
A selection of short lyric poems, narrative, and drama including examples from Shakespeare, Donne, Coleridge, Keats, Yeats, Whitman and Rich.
EXAMINATIONS AND ASSIGNMENTS
Many short (3-5 page) papers. No exams.
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS and/or COMMENTS
A prerequisite for the English major. Hence preference to sophomores. Juniors or transfers who seek admission due to special circumstances should apply for a prerequisite override. Reading assignments are short, but
careful reading is essential, since
literary analysis is what is being taught. Writing assignments are frequent and sharply focused. But students not especially interested in poetry and not considering a major in English, should not take ENGL201 as a
"writing" course.
Unless preregistered students attend the first class meeting or communicate directly with the instructor prior to the first class, they will be dropped from the class list. NOTE: Students must still submit a completed
Drop/Add form to the Registrar's
Office.
