3 cr

Continuing the introduction begun in ENG 2271, this course spans the Romantic, Victorian, modern, and contemporary periods. Again, its scope is broad: from Songs of Innocence to A Room of One’s Own, from Manfred to Kurtz, Frankenstein’s monster to Godot, from Heathcliff and Aurora Leigh to J. Alfred Prufrock and Stephen Dedalus, from the early Romantic poets’ Neoplatonism to the somber mood and modes following the cataclysmic First World War.
