POST-1865. This course is designed to make students familiar with major literary movements, and genres of 19th and 20th century British literature. Students will learn and explore different methods of analyzing and criticizing a literary text. Since this course plans to cover major works of 19th and early 20th century in one short semester, the reading load is quite heavy. We will try our best to approach texts through online discussion, close reading, collaborative analysis, and writing assignments of various length.
