ENGL 196W - Literary London: Hofstra London ProgramSemester Hours: 3 This course will examine both the works and the sites of English
literature. In conjunction with our study of the city’s literary
heritage, we will read a wide array of authors, from John Donne to
Samuel Johnson to Virginia Woolf. The readings will focus in particular
on Romantic and Victorian London, with selective works by such writers
as William Blake, John Keats, Oscar Wilde, and Charles Dickens.
We will also have the opportunity to take advantage of literary walking
tours, visits to historic literary homes, and dramatic readings of
literary works, among other organized activities. Since many of
the readings are closely linked to the visual arts, we will tour a
variety of museums, including the National and the Tate Galleries, the
British Museum, and the Victoria and Albert Museum. See Study Abroad programs.
