Photo Caption and Credits

A survey of American Literature since the Civil War. Topics include major prose writers and literary movements. We will make an effort to situate texts in their historical contexts.

MAJOR READINGS

The instructor reserves the right to
determine the precise works to be read at a time much closer
to the beginning of the course than is allowed under the
current system of announcing courses; however, it is
probable that most of the following authors will be
represented: Davis, Twain, James, Crane, Gilman, Hemingway,
Fitzgerald, Faulkner, Hurston, O'Neill, West, and Wright.

EXAMINATIONS AND ASSIGNMENTS

Midterm examination, a final examination and a final paper.

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS and/or COMMENTS

This course counts toward the English Department's historical knowledge requirement. This will be a reading intensive course, and students will be expected to keep up with a demanding syllabus.
