ENG 324 - Twentieth-Century American Literature (WI)

Semester Hours: 3
(Writing Intensive)
Studies the highpoints of American literary realism and modernism, from the turn of the century and the 1920s to the 1950s and beyond. We explore how writers in these vital periods confront the ideals of America by examining concepts of “the real.” The course emphasizes literary argument, but also connects literature to parallel movements in philosophy, painting, popular culture, and the nation at large.

Pre-requisites: GEN 112 - Composition II: Argumentation and Research ; as well as one 200-level English (ENG) course, junior standing, or consent.
