Inventing the Modern: The European Novel from 1850-1950 - If you?ve ever wondered how modern culture and modern social relationships came to be, then this is the class for you. Our survey of will begin by exploring how the nineteenth century writers, Gustav Flaubert and Fyodor Dostoyevsky re-imagined the novel by introducing a kind of style and layers of psychological darkness and complexity that were wholly new to the form. We?ll go on to observe how writers like Joseph Conrad, Marcel Proust, Franz Kafka, and Virginia Woolf went on to explore the social, political, sexual, and ideological concerns that would reshape Europe during the twentieth century. Requirements will include active class-participation, weekly journal entries, two short papers, and two exams. Texts will include: Flaubert?s Madame Bovary, Dostoyevsky?s The Idiot, Conrad?s Under Western Eyes, Proust?s Swann?s Way, and Woolf?s Mrs. Dalloway.
