ENG 380 CUX - Literary Criticism and Theory


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

This course builds on the theoretical principles taught in ENG 280 or ENG 281 to further provide students with the critical tools used in upper-division literature course work. It is devoted to examining critical perspectives and theories in detail, including New Criticism, New Historicism, queer and gender studies, psychoanalytic criticism, feminism, and deconstruction, exploring them through primary readings and case studies. Students will develop a greater understanding of the critical frameworks that provide the assumptions, strategies, and governing questions for the practice of interpreting texts.

Prerequisite(s): ENG 280 or ENG 281 .
