Course Description: As part of the
Liberal Studies curriculum, this course immerses you in the experience of literature. We
will not simply appreciate the greatness of literary "masterpieces" like
awestruck fans in front of a painting (or Graceland if you prefer). I will lead you to
consider some fundamental questions, beginning simply--What is literature? What are its
uses?--and delving more deeply over the course of the semester. Readings that vary across
time, culture, and style will help us to consider how and why literature has been made and
enjoyed by others and, ultimately, what it means to us today, both inside and outside the
classroom.
