Undergraduate Summer 07

ENGL 3163. 211 World Lit I / Wallen

MTWRF 11:30-2:15 . Too busy to tour Europe this summer? Here's your chance to get the Continental Experience without the bother of confusing exchange rates, rude waiters, or uncomfortable plumbing. In this class you'll read short works from Greece, Italy, Gaul, and the heathen German states -- and best of all, you won't get jet lag. Group reports, mid-term and final.

ENGL 3410. 241 Popular Fiction: 19 th Century Science Fiction / Prchal

MTWR 9:00-11:30 Some of science fiction's most enduring and defining motifs developed during the nineteenth century. Examples include scientific experiments having monstrous results, interplanetary space crafts, and underworld civilizations. We will read some of the works that established these motifs and others, including authors such as Poe, Shelley, Verne, and Wells.

ENGL 3933. 241 Shakespeare / Pesta

MTWR 12:00-2:30 An overview of the plays of Shakespeare designed for beginners. No one understood human nature like Shakespeare. His comedies expose the romance and folly of love, and his tragedies and histories offer profound insights into mortality and probe the depths of human nature. A college degree without a course in Shakespeare is like a degree in medicine without a course on anatomy.
