Great American Junk: Popular Writing in the American Renaissance, 3 hours. The 1820s and 30s saw the emergence of mass production not just of things like shoes and hats but of that far more esoteric commodity: the book. This course will explore this historical explosion in print culture, with special attention to the question of how and why some of these texts came to be deemed examples of "high" culture while others came to be thought of as "junk" -- or "low" culture. First Year Discovery Program Course. Registration restricted to freshmen. Students should enroll in only one Discovery course.

The Novel of Character: Austen, Eliot, James, 3 hours. In this course we will read a handful of texts by three of the most important British and American novelists writing in the nineteenth century: Jane Austen, George Eliot, and Henry James. All three are practitioners of the kind of fiction we call the psychological novel or novel of character. Works like Persuasion, Daniel Deronda, and The Portrait of a Lady revolve around complex protagonists with a vibrant inner life, which is painstakingly represented to us. We will ask why the psychological individual seems to matter so much to these novelists, how they thought of the relationship between privacy and sociability, and what kinds of techniques they used to give visibility to invisible mental processes. First Year Discovery Program Course. Registration restricted to freshmen. Students should enroll in only one Discovery course.
