Featured Course
ENGL 49 • California Literature: Golden State Cultures, Geographies, and Histories
Take a literary trip through California this fall. Enroll in ENGL 49! Fully Online with Dr. Jordana Griffiths, CRN 22286 You'll learn about the history, development, and diversity of literature about the Golden State, with a focus on contemporary literature. We will study literature written by and about Californians, from pre-contact California Indian creation myths to contemporary poetry, fiction, essays, and autobiographical narratives, and we will watch a contemporary film (you’ll select one film out of three choices). We will focus on important literary contributions by authors from a range of ethnic, socio-economic, and regional communities representing the cultural complexity of California to understand the ways in which ecology, geography, political and social developments, ethnicity, gender, and class have shaped the distinctive yet interconnected California cultures, as represented in literary works. Students will engage in frequent class discussions and will develop skills in writing critical essays. |
