Topics in Global Literature and Society

Catalog description

This course focuses on a variable theme determined by the professor that is significant to global literature and society, especially non-Western literature and society. Special emphasis is placed on how different global contexts approach literature in different, yet interrelated ways. The purpose of this course is to reveal how literature circulates, evolves, and adapts across global contexts, performing different social functions along the way. This course is repeatable, so long as the theme is not repeated.
