Expanded Course Description
Genre courses focus on a range of genres/forms crucial for the study of English and American literature and culture and are aimed primarily at English majors. Each Genre course traces the historical development and transformation of a key literary and cultural genre and places strong emphasis on close reading and critical analytic skills. Genre courses are NOT intended to present comprehensive historical coverage of English, American or Anglophone authors or texts, though each course does situate particular examples of a given genre within appropriate cultural and historical contexts. Genres that have been the focus for ENG 205 sections include: romance; travel writing; freedom narratives; autobiography; tragedy; and lyric. Other genres may be covered in future sections.
