ENGL 327 Survey of American Literature I, From Beginning to Civil War (3) Prerequisites: C or higher in ENGL 301 , or consent of instructor. A wide-ranging survey of American literature of all genres from the first European contacts through the Civil War. As well as exposing students to the "canonical" major authors and a variety of other writers of the period, this course examines differing concepts of literary merit, differing ideas of what constitutes literature itself, developing ideas of "Americanness" and competing visions of a just society within the historical context of the period. Study of print texts is enhanced by incorporation of audio versions of texts, music, filmed dramatic performances, visual images, and/or feature films.
ENGL 324, 325, 327 and 328 are the literary core for students pursuing the B.S. Education, English Grade 5-Adult degree.
