Summer English Course: ENG 242, American Writers 2
Posted by Nigel on April 20, 2009 in Academics
We wanted to let you know about a summer course being offered in the English department during the first summer session that fulfills a humanities requirement as well as a number of core requirements for English majors: ENG 242, American Writers 2 (registration #: 227252).
We’ll be reading both classic and lesser-known works of American lit, and focusing on how notions of community and “neighboring” work their way through the poetry and fiction of the last 150 years.
The course is being taught by Siobhan Scarry, Instructor, English Department.
For English majors, this class fulfills two requirements: a core class in the 200-level range, one of which the department recommends should be a survey (this class is a survey), and a course in Later Literature (1830 and after). The course also fulfills a core humanities requirement.
Attached is a flyer about the course: flyer.pdf
