Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2016-2017.

I imagine the Modern Imagination: The Major Authors as an indispensable, probing, and pleasurable course for those studying  nineteenth, twentieth and contemporary century literature as well as for MFAs, who are most welcome. We shall read major works by Joyce, Woolf, Conrad, Forster, Lawrence, Yeats, and T.S.Eliot as well as works by Proust, Kafka, and Mann. The emphasis will be on close reading of individual texts, but we shall place the authors and works within the context of literary, political, cultural, and intellectual history. We shall also be aware of critical and theoretical approaches. The course will seek to define the development of literary modernism and relate literary modernism to other intellectual developments. We shall be especially interested in the relationship between modern literature and modern painting and sculpture.

When Offered Spring.
