EDP, H- Students explore a survey of United States English literature between the late 19th Century and the present. Through fiction, poetry, drama, non-fiction, and/or film, students practice in-depth analysis of texts based on their literary elements and devices and their cultural-historical contexts, and reflection of the complex human experience. Authors and texts may vary, but typically illuminate aspects of Naturalism, Modernism, Harlem Renaissance, experimental drama, emerging immigrant, feminist and queer voices, and post-modernism. Within this survey the course may also focus on a theme chosen by the instructor.
