Section Info: ENGL 209 is restricted to English majors. The rubric of this course makes two assumptions. The first is that literature written in England constitutes a coherent tradition. The second is that this coherence is apparent in all periods of English history preceding the year 1798. In undertaking this course we must operate within these assumptions. But we do not have to be happy about it. Indeed, we will spend a good deal of the term exposing them to scrutiny: how do the works we study imagine the nation? In what ways do they reflect their own historical moment? How do later authors generate the notion of an English literary tradition by referring to their predecessors? How do they manipulate those predecessors to their own ends? In exploring these questions, we will also pay close attention to the ways in which different genres?poetry, drama, and that young upstart the novel?constitute different kinds of cultural engagements, focusing our attention to the development of literary heroism across genres and periods. Assignments will consist of three brief essays, mid-term and final examinations, and a term paper requiring research. TEXTS: The Longman Anthology of British Literature, ed. David Damrosch and J.H.
