ENG 186 — Women in Literature
English 186 is a literature elective which introduces students to the roles women have been given and have taken in literature. Students will read diverse texts about and by women from various time periods and gain insight into their distinctive social, cultural, and historical/political development. The course may be organized by genre and/or theme and may include an in-depth exploration of a selected author, text, or cultural community. Students will complete a variety of writing assignments designed to develop skills in literary analysis and will write formal, literature-based essays. This course is designed for students who have already demonstrated college-level skills in essay writing and provides a foundation for upper-level literature courses.
