This is a 200-level literature and writing course focusing on the critical thinking, discipline, and skills involved in reading literature and writing analytical essays. While developing your abilities as a writer, you'll be challenged to read literary texts carefully and critically, discovering the reader's role in interpreting the meaning of a text and cultivating a tolerance for (even an appreciation of) ambiguity. The aim of the course is to extend your capacity to think critically-that is, to explore issues from multiple perspectives and, through your reading, to develop ideas that are important to you.
