LITERATURE

Reading Literature: The Basics

SPRING LN116

Wednesdays

Tutor: Garrett Fagan

This is intended as a very basic introduction to enjoying literature at a deeper level than the casual reader. No prior knowledge will be required only an enthusiasm for the written word. Students will be introduced to genre and form and basic methods of literary analysis. The material chosen is purposefully broad in terms of period, cultural background and style to give as wide an experience as possible. On completion students will be well equipped to profit more deeply from other literature courses and will have had their own recreational reading enriched.
