LIT 230 Introduction to a Form: (subtitle)
Serving as an in-depth exploration of one literary form - poetry, fiction, drama, or film - this course introduces students to the defining characteristics, styles, modes, and genres of the form. Each iteration of the course will engage questions of historical and social contexts as they intersect with canonical and non-canonical texts. Students will acquire common critical terms used in the analysis of the form and have the chance to experience the form, whether through writing short fiction, reciting a poem, making a short film, or acting a scene of a play.
Notes
