EN 2740 - World Literature Through the 16th Century


(3)
This course explores representative works of world literature from antiquity to the early modern period, within a framework that includes instruction in writing about literature, compares cultures and historical periods, and invites consideration of both what is shared among cultures and what is unique about the culture from which each text emerged. With emphasis on critical thinking, reading, and writing, the course examines several major genres of literature and studies themes, forms, and styles in the literary texts.
