Course Content
This course offers choices from a range of courses in literature, in translation or in the original language, from Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America, from the late 17th century through to the present day. Through the study of world literature, students will be expected to recognize, understand, and appreciate the diversity of other cultures and societies and the intrinsic value of national literary traditions different from their own. Consequently, they will be required to demonstrate a more global and historical awareness of their place in the world. Students will be required to identify specific characteristics of the various literary modes common to each national literature and literary period, and, thus, recognize the sources, qualities, and achievements of different national literatures and different literary styles and techniques.
