ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS and/or COMMENTS

This course counts toward the English Department's historical knowledge requirement. 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. Preference in Drop/Add period to people who have taken ENGL241. The reading load is quite heavy; you will do well to read some of the novels in advance.
