Course Descriptions

This course will introduce students to some of the principal approaches to literary interpretation and critical theory. Students will be expected to read short selections of theoretical texts, and to investigate the application of critical approaches to literature. One aim of the course will be to provoke students to engage with diverse schools of critical theory from the biographical, comparative, and psychoanalytic to Marxist, gender critical, and postcolonial theories. Students will respond to weekly writing prompts on the critical theories and/ or literatures with the objective of producing reflective, interpretative, creative, and argumentative pieces.
