Minimum Credit(s) Awarded: 4
Maximum Credit(s) Awarded: 4

Encompassing a wide range of literary movements and authors from the 1600s through the end of the American Civil War in 1865, this course may be organized as a survey course looking at writers from each period or may focus on one or more periods in depth. From the early settlers seeking religious or economic freedoms to the tumultuous revolutionary period to the establishment of a distinctive American literature and culture in the nineteenth century, the territories that became the United States forged new political and social frontiers that are reflected in a wide range of imaginative literary works. This course contributes to the pre-1865 literature requirement.

Prerequisite(s): W tag.
