ENGL 3110 - Global Themes for Writing

Arts & Sciences
Students taking this course will learn to write analytically about contemporary literary works by non- Western writers. Instruction is devoted to various methods for analysis, including close reading and a consideration of cultural and historical contexts. The stories, poems, plays, and articles assigned in this class will ultimately initiate broader conversations about such topics as migration, race, ethnicity, labor, cosmopolitanism, cultural exchange, and cultural memory. We will attempt to gain insight into the human factors behind modern controversies and policies and to approach those controversies with nuance and creativity. Student work will culminate in a final project that integrates research and literature in order to take an original look at a topic of global scope.
