English Department Courses

The Department of English offers a wide variety of courses appropriate for concentrators as well as for others who wish to write, read, and critically assess literatures. Seminars and special topics offerings intensely explore literary-historical fields through the study of theory and literary forms and often intersect with literatures in other fields.

Our complete prospectus (pdf) of all 2009-10 English course offerings is regularly updated. For advice about choosing an introductory English course, visit the Guidelines for Entry-Level Courses. Links to the left will take you to more specific information about nonfiction writing offerings, to a guide for the English course numbering system, and to the prospectus.
