Description

This course examines remarkable innovations in the art of the modern English and American novel. Writers of the first half of the twentieth century created dazzling and challenging techniques by which to explore the society, politics, and psychology of their era. Particular emphasis will be placed on representations of perception and consciousness in a variety of narrative forms. Authors to be studied might include Conrad, James, Joyce, Woolf, Lawrence, Faulkner, Fitzgerald, Hemingway, Nabokov, and Ellison. For students with two other upper-level (3000-level or above) English courses, this course may serve as the capstone for the Tier III requirement.
