ENGL 070 - (LT) Constructing American Literature

Semester Hours: 3
Fall, Spring
This course introduces students to the development of American literature from the 16th to the 19th century, paying particular attention to ways in which literary texts in different historical periods and contexts speak to one another. We will explore the ways in which race, gender, ethnicity, sexuality, genre, and literary form link and distinguish these texts, and we will reflect on how audiences over time shape the canons of American literary history.

Prerequisite(s)/Course Notes:
WSC 001  or WSC 002 . May not be taken on a Pass/D+/D/Fail basis. Credit given for this course or ENGL 071 , not both. (Formerly ENGL 143, American Literature I.)
