ENL 163 World Literature, 18th Century to Present

3 Credit(s) DI CEA WC
An introduction to touchstone works of literature since the eighteenth century from diverse cultures in Asia, Africa, the Americas, and Europe. The worlds and world views that literary works convey and create are studied in their difference and diversity, in relation to one another, and in relation to the experiences of the reader. Individual courses will be organized around big questions such as “to whom are we responsible?” or “what is the role of the artist?” or around such themes as “empire, colonialism, and globalization,” “gender and sexuality in local and global contexts,” or “friendship.” Three lecture hours per week.  Not open to students who have received credit for ENG261.
