LIT 2380 - Introduction to Women in Literature - (I)


3 credits
Prerequisites: ENC 1101   with a grade of “C” or better
This course surveys the development of the tradition of literature by women in English from the medieval period to the present. Students will read works from various genres which both portray women and are written by women; students will think critically and examine images of women and their roles in society from historical and cross-national perspectives within those works, and students will analyze selected works in women’s literature itself to communicate and articulate a better understanding of that literary tradition. This course also provides students with a foundation for reading critically through the analysis of and writing about the literature of women as well by researching and organizing critical essays. This is a writing intensive course that requires a minimum of 4,000 words and must be passed with at least a C.

(I) International or diversity focus
