American Literature: End of Civil War to Present (ENGL 2328)

This course will introduce students to a representative selection of American Literature written since the Civil War. They will become familiar with the works of significant writers and be able to recognize those characteristics that distinguish one writer from another. They will develop a critical vocabulary that articulates an understanding of the elements of fiction, poetry, drama and non-fiction prose, and will, using critical analysis, demonstrate the application of this knowledge through class discussions, written papers and exams, and investigative research.
