Courses (English Literature 350)

50:350:105 Success in Research and Writing (1) Focus on the practical application of theories and methods introduced in Introduction to English Studies (50:350:201). It is a writing and skills-based workshop covering a wide variety of skills and methods related to English Studies. Sessions will be devoted to such topics as finding peer-reviewed research resources, deploying digital tools in humanities research, and experimenting with creating writing, among others.
50:350:106 Literature Appreciation (3) This course is intended for nonmajors who want to gain a college-level understanding of literature. Students will learn about the major literary genres and terms. The class emphasizes critical reading skills and is not writing intensive.
50:350:150 Introduction to Digital Humanities (3) An introduction to work at the intersection of digital technology and the humanities. Coursework involves the use of digital technology to compose, design, and create digital projects and also the analysis of digital objects from a humanistic perspective.     
50:350:160 Texts and Theories (3) Survey of critical approaches to reading and writing about literary texts.
50:350:200 Introduction to Disability Studies (3) The objective of the course is to introduce students to disability as a category of literary and cultural analysis. It understands people with disabilities as a political minority whose representation raises similar (and interconnected) issues as that of other marginalized groups, such as African Americans, women, and children.
50:350:201 Introduction to English Studies (3) This course is intended to answer the question: What are we doing and learning when we major in English? We will explore the conventions, methods, assumptions, and concerns of some of the subdisciplines in English studies: literature and literary criticism, creative writing, composition, rhetoric, business/technical writing, linguistics, film/media studies, and journalism.  Required for all English majors.
50:350:203 Literature of Hip-Hop (3) A funky excursion through the history of hip-hop, following the footsteps from oral poetries to diverse musical influences, from poetic techniques to the development of the genre since 1974. We will talk about the politics, history, and economics of the United States as well as research and discover favorite artists old and new. We will be reading about hip-hop, listening to hip-hop, and even throwing down in our own freestyle event. Graded assignments includes multimodal, creative, and analytical work designed to test and expand critical thinking skills.
50:350:204 Immigrant Voices (3) This course examines literature written by and about immigrants in search of the American Dream. We will read a wide variety of 20th- and 21st-century texts ranging from fiction to poetry to essay to memoir by authors from China, India, Nigeria, Ethiopia, Mexico, Puerto Rico, and other non-European countries. In our discussion of these readings, we will explore how and why America has come to represent the land of hope and opportunity, and we will question to what extent the American Dream is a necessary illusion. Course requirements include active class participation, several short quizzes, two papers, a midterm, and a longer final project.
50:350:205 Responses to Landscape in English Literature (3) Nature in English literature, from the Middle Ages to the present, has been praised as religious revelation or spiritual consolation, yet persistently devastated, deforested, and polluted. Mindful of climate change, we will track this contradictory process from Gawain and the Green Knight to Nobel prize-winning contemporary poet Seamus Heaney.
50:350:212 Global Perceptions of Religion, Race, and Gender in Literature (3) A comparative study of modern texts from various cultures: Anglo-American, European, African, Indian, and Islamic. We will look at a variety of genres, and our study will be informed by various theoretical perspectives impinging on feminism, religion, colonialism, and international political developments in the modern era. The texts in this course will be examined in their historical contexts, with due emphasis upon their intentions.
50:350:213 Literature of Abrahamic Faiths (3) Study of selected literature from the three great monotheistic religions, beginning with their respective scriptures, and proceeding through their philosophical and literary traditions to their contemporary writings. Figures to be examined will include: Augustine, Philo, Aquinas, Dante, al-Ghazzali, Solomon Ibn Gabirol, Maimonides, Sa'adi, Rumi, Spinoza, Bialik, Uri Zevi Gruenberg, Nizar Qabbani, Iqbal, and Isaac Bashevis Singer.
50:350:220 Critical Methods in English (3) Survey of research sources and critical approaches to be used in reading and writing about literary texts, including materials available on the internet. Curriculum 50:350 students only.
50:350:221 Literatures in English I (3) Historical survey of literatures written in English (primarily British and American literatures) from the Middle Ages through 1660.
50:350:222 Literatures in English II (3) Historical survey of literatures written in English (primarily British and American literatures) from 1660 to 1900.
50:350:223 Literatures in English III (3) Survey of 20th-century literatures written in English, with emphasis on colonial and postcolonial themes.
50:350:224,225,226 Special Topics (3 each) A course in a specially selected topic.
50:350:227 Folk and Fairy Tales across Media (3) This course introduces students to diverse fairy and folk tales from a variety of critical lenses. Students will practice critical approaches to classic tales and their adaptation across time, space, and media.
50:350:232 World Novel in the 20th Century (3) Major novels from the literatures of Europe, Latin America, Africa, and the East, read in translation.
50:350:234 Graphic Storytelling (3) From cave drawings to computer-generated avatars, visual storytelling has always been central to how we know ourselves. Over the course of this semester, we'll study nine graphic novels and memoirs as way into thinking about the central issues of our age. How does the graphic form synthesize our evolving ideas of gender, race, and class? How does it manage to break down public and private, highbrow and lowbrow, and all the expected binaries? What can graphic narratives do that traditional text-alone narratives can't do? Through careful study and joyful appreciation of the work in front of us, we'll think about the matters of identity, interaction, and intertextuality as a way to become more attuned to ourselves and others: the culture in which we live.
50:350:235 Short-Story Collections of the Ancient and Medieval World (3) The short story is often presumed to be a relatively recent invention, a diminutive offshoot of the novel, a form which saw its major growth in the 18th century. But the short story has been thriving, independent of long-form fiction, with a long heritage in world literature, and is often found as pieces in larger narrative tapestries. This course will explore five of these collections of shorter fiction, ranging from classical India, to the Roman Empire, to the heights of medieval Arab civilization, to Italy and England just before the European Renaissance. These stories comprise some of the most interesting and innovative attempts to fictionalize human experience, ranging from animal fables to fabliaux and other bawdy tales, to works of religious experience and mythological explanations of the natural world. We will read narratives of change and wonder, encounter the values of high and low culture, and learn how different authors have encapsulated the diversity of human life in the ancient and medieval era, across two continents.
50:350:236 Fictions of Masculinity (3) This course will explore depictions of masculinity in literature of the West from the ancient Greeks to contemporary times. Texts to be considered include: Homer's Odyssey; Shakespeare's Hamlet; Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman; J.D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye; Richard Wright's Native Son; and Tim O'Brien's The Things They Carried. We will supplement our explorations in literature with critical texts from the growing body of work in masculinity studies.
50:350:238 World Masterpieces I (3) Studies in great works of world literature from antiquity to the early modern era.
50:350:239 World Masterpieces II (3) Studies in great works of world literature from the dawn of the modern era to the present.
50:350:241 Medieval European Itineraries (3) Explores travel as a foundational activity for early European narratives. How are fictional and literary accounts of the world enabled by the activity of travel? Why are quests, which often take a protagonist to dangerous and distant realms, often synonymous with character development? What is the social usefulness of travel as an educational process? We will start off with two ancient accounts of travel (one biblical, the other classical), and then plunge headlong into an exploration of our own of the Middle Ages and its conceptions of not just the physical world but also of the universe enabled by moving, at least intellectually, through geographical space. Along the way we will read Arthurian quest romances, tours of hell and heaven, dream-visions, as well as the accounts of actual world travelers (such as Marco Polo).
50:350:242 Reading History as Literature (3) What we call history is the result of the way great writers shape it. The course examines not only of what happened but the narratives that have described what happened and the writers whose rhetorical skill is the overlooked, invisible agency behind historical memory.
50:350:243 Children's Literature, Film, Media, and Animation (3) A study of children's literature in multiple media, including textual, pictorial, visual, digital, interactive, and animated.
50:350:245 Folklore (3) The major genres of folklore, including proverb, folktale, and folk song, with some attention to the methods of collecting and analyzing these materials.

50:350:250 How to Read a Poem (3) This course examines contemporary poetry in terms of the ways it uses sound, rhythm, silence, metaphor, lacuna, and pace. It asks how a poem enacts an experience and conveys meaning. Students will interact with texts through group activities, including essays, presentations, readings, and discussions.
50:350:251 Ten Books I Should Have Read by Now (3)

Reexamines standard literary texts in secondary school curricula, asking fundamental questions about the process of canon formation.

50:350:252 Native American Literature (3) A study of the major Native American authors and the major themes, issues, and movements in Native American literary history, from its origins to the present.

50:350:281 Asian Narratives (3)

Fiction, poetry, and essays by Asian-American and Asian-British authors, and by writers from the Near, Middle, and Far East, read in translation.

50:350:283 The Irish Renaissance (3) A study of important figures, including Yeats, Gregory, Synge, and O'Casey, in the creation of an Irish national literature beginning around 1890. 
50:350:300 Foundations of Literature (3) A study of literary works across multiple historical periods covering at least 200 years and demonstrating how these periods relate to one another. Required for all English majors.
50:350:301 Historifications (3) Is there any difference between documents that make up the historical record and works of fiction? Both are examples of human discourse and subject to the same rules; they are produced and edited, exalted and condemned, remembered or forgotten for the same reasons. The course sets out to demonstrate an insight of Philip K. Dick: "The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the manipulation of words. If you can control the meaning of words, you can control the people who must use the words." We will be looking at both the controllers and the controlled, the users and the used. Along with electronic handouts, the only required texts are a daily newspaper and two short contemporary novels.
50:350:302 The War and the Warrior (3) Dr. Johnson once remarked that every man secretly thinks the worse of himself if he has not been a soldier. Erasmus argued to the contrary that war is criminal, fomenting in humans a savagery worse than the beasts'. What is certain is that organized war has been with us as long as the state itself, created together around 3,500 BCE in ancient Sumer, and militarism, along with adulation of warrior greatness, has been continuous. Despite the explicit pacifism of its founder, Christianity has historically offered little resistance to celebration of slaughter, beyond formulating the (arguably manipulable) principles of the Just War, and the Bible itself offers contradictory perspectives. There have been, however, large cultural variations in the definition of the warrior and his virtues, just as the technology and techniques of waging war have been transformed beyond recognition, and at many points aversion to war--in some early Christian Fathers, some Renaissance Humanists, certain strains in Romanticism, reactions to Vietnam--has challenged its institutional idealization. Mindful that we live still in a world haunted by warfare, this course will track, meditate, and debate the long cultural history of this toweringly important topic through close readings of literary texts, surveying depictions from Homer to the 20th century.
50:350:303 Weird Books (3) A study of experimental novels that pays particular attention to the book as material form and the ways in which authors and artists have distorted, broken, or challenged the traditional structure of both the narrative and the material form of the book.
50:350:304 Women in Speculative Fiction (3) A study of the ways in which speculative genres such as fantasy, utopian and dystopian literature, and science fiction have taken as their focus gender identity and in particular the construction and policing of the idea of femininity or womanhood.
50:350:305 Poetry and Performance (3) In this course we will examine poetry in performance, a term which encompasses forms like slam, musical and dance collaborations, and others. Students will study aspects of performance in relation to more conventional constructions of poetry, including traditional prosody, its variations, and deviations.
50:350:306, 307 Study Away (3,3) Study Away is an opportunity at Rutgers University-Camden for students to enhance coursework on campus through travel within the United States.
50:350:313 Classical Backgrounds of English Literature (3) The influence on English and American literature of classical Greek and Roman epic, tragedy, comedy, and other literary forms.

50:350:315 Survey of Medieval British Literature, ca. 500-1485 (3) The European Middle Ages was surprisingly diverse, filled with travelers and goods from distant lands. Even a land at the edge of Europe like the British Isles contained multitudes. This course looks at British medieval literature as a crossroads of multiculturalism, including Latin, Greek, Irish, Welsh, Dutch, French, English, and Scandinavian texts. We will also discuss the place of continental European, African, Mediterranean, and Middle Eastern influences on the British Middle Ages. Expect to write two short papers plus some other minor but fun assignments.
50:350:316 Medieval Literature (3) Survey of literature, from Beowulf through the 15th century: plays, songs, adventure narratives, religious allegories, and other genres.

50:350:319 Gothic Writing (3) A survey of British and American Gothic writing from the late 18th century to the fin-de-siècle.
50:350:320 The Novel of Sensibility (3) This course explores the major aesthetic development of the novel from the late 18th through the early 19th centuries.  Roughly translated into contemporary terms, sensibility refers to a person's refined sense of empathy and extreme sensitivity. Yet, this seemingly personal attribute formed a site of intense philosophical and political controversy during the Revolutionary period; "sensibility" was used to bolster everything from the drive for abolition to animal rights.  At the same time, skeptics of sensibility caricatured these novels from the very outset, making for a comic counter-discourse, which we will examine with equal zest.  The course will include novels by Lawrence Sterne, Henry Mackenzie, and Jane Austen, among others.
50:350:321 Eighteenth-Century Literature (3) Major themes and writers in English from Dryden to Wollstonecraft, emphasizing the emergence of women as writers and readers of literature.
50:350:322 Romantic Period (3) Literature of the Age of Revolution: major works of Blake, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Smith, Byron, Percy and Mary Shelley, and Keats.
50:350:323 Romantic Drama (3) Historical survey of English drama 1780-1830 with an emphasis on the material history of theatrical productions.
50:350:324 Victorian Literature (3) A thematic and analytic approach to the major prose and poetry of the period, with emphasis on the works of Tennyson, Browning, Rossetti, Arnold, Carlyle, and Ruskin.
50:350:326 Transatlantic Literature (3) Transatlantic Literature responds to ongoing transformations in setting the boundaries of national and geographic literatures, a development occurring in an increasingly globalized world.  British and American literature, historically distinct fields of study, are now examined under the uniting rubric of the Atlantic Ocean. The shift brings students' attention to common as well as different concepts of identity, migration, travel, customs, and literary styles across centuries and between nations.
50:350:329 Old English Language and Literature (3) An introduction to the reading and analysis of Old English, including Beowulf.
