ENG 394 - American Literature I: Discovery and Colonization 3 Credit(s)
Several of the figures studied in this class-such as Christopher Columbus, Anne Bradstreet, Hector St. Jean de Crevecoeur, and Thomas Jefferson-are frequently referenced in contemporary discussions of the American “character,” yet are poorly understood by most. A basic knowledge of the literatures of colonial America and the early United States deepens students’ understanding of these figures, and hence of American history, culture, politics, and identity. This course complements American Literature II and is required of all English liberal arts and secondary education majors.
