ENG-217: Women, Gender, & Literature

Course Description

This course explores women in literature across history and cultures. The course may be approached chronologically or thematically, and readings will be drawn from women authors who represent various experiences and identities. Genres studied may include fiction, non-fiction, drama, poetry, and other forms of expression. In addition to studying the literary aspects of the texts, students will examine, discuss, and write about the historical, social, and political backdrops within which these texts were written and received. Special attention will be paid to historic and contemporary issues of representation and power, including intersections of gender and race, class, sexual identities, and more. Three class hours.
