In this course we will follow the transformation of a genre, from the effusive Romantic novel to the sometimes brutal chronicles created by proponents of the Realist and Naturalist movements. At issue in this class is how stylistic concerns echo (or contradict?) evolving attitudes regarding the complexities and inequities of French nineteenth-century society.
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.
