LIT 220 Intro to World Literature
In this course, students will develop an intellectual and ethical framework for approaching difference in literature. Literary readings will be drawn from a broad variety of locations and time periods. Additional critical readings from the fields of world literature, comparative literature, postcolonial studies, and translation studies will inform students as they consider the effect that crossing linguistic, cultural, and geopolitical borders has on the text and interpretive practices. This course will be taught in English.
