ENG 270 - Modernism (3 Cr.) (GEN. ED. #9)
The setting and subject of much modernist literature, 1910–1940, is urban. One way to describe any era is by what it wants—both what it lacks and what it desires. The modern period, however, is actually characterized by the ubiquity and urgency of its sense of wanting. This course explores the significance of this persistent theme in works by Joyce, Woolf, Lawrence, Faulkner, Stevens, Eliot, Rhys, and Beckett. Prerequisite: ENG 212 or junior standing. Fall semester. Offered 2012-13 and alternate years. Cordish.
