EDP, GS, H- This introductory English course grows out of our understanding that literature helps give voice, shape and meaning to the medley of human experience. Students will explore a breadth of literary genres, texts, and critical approaches. They will learn and apply skills for exploring the meanings and effects of literature as they practice connecting text and author relationships to their historical, cultural, and global contexts and constraints. Class discussion and both analytical and imaginative response will help students discover and express their own learning about literature. This class may be organized around a theme chosen by the instructor.
Prerequisites
Successful completion of ENGL 95 or above, or placement into ENGL&101.
