Section Info:
This seminar focuses on several of the key writings of the 1920s and the development of the modern American novel. The course examines both familiar and unfamiliar authors, novels either celebrated in their day or recovered within various revisionist projects. In addition to reading these novels and studying their reception—both contemporaneous and scholarly—we will also engage some of the dominant critical accounts within the literary historiography, right up till the present. Our novels will include texts by Sinclair Lewis, Willa Cather, Nella Larsen, Ernest Hemingway, among others. We will also be preparing seminar papers, through a series of stages, for publication.
