| LITR 203 - METHODS OF LITERARY STUDY |
|
Methods of Literary Study looks at a broad selection of literary texts, produced across the world, across eras, and across genres. We will read these texts carefully, coming to some understanding of aesthetics, genres, and literary periods. More than an introduction to specific "canonical" literary texts, though, the course focuses not so much on what we read as how we read it. We will explore contemporary literary theory, challenge our ideas about just what literature is and what it is for, and why it has endured. The course also focuses on how to write about literature and perform literary research.
