Description
This course explores cornerstone literary periods: romanticism, realism, modernism, postmodernism, and the Program Era. Organized by the periods that shape literary culture beginning in the late 18th century, this course complements the study of the evolution of literary genres and forms in Epic Poetry to the Novel. Readings will span global cultural traditions, but due to the historical origins and practices of literary periodization, students should expect a focus on American, British, and European readings.
