ENG 208:  Survey of American Literature: Part 1.

 

        In this class we will read a wide range of texts from some of the many cultures that before 1860 laid claim to territory we now call America.  Class discussions, lectures, student presentations, small group work, formal and informal writing about the literature will be used to explore such topics as what “America” and “American” mean and what constitutes a national literature.
